Description

A standout 1970s red and white striped seersucker blazer with crisp summer tailoring and a graphic candy-stripe effect. The jacket features a classic notched lapel, two-button front, chest pocket, lower flap pockets, button cuffs, and a lightweight puckered seersucker-style texture that gives the piece breathability and visual dimension.

The shape reads strongly 1970s: slightly wider lapel, longer sport coat cut, structured shoulder, and a playful striped fabric associated with warm-weather tailoring of the era. Red and white seersucker has a particularly bold resort/prep quality, making this a great statement blazer for spring and summer styling, event dressing, or a more editorial menswear look.

Style it with cream trousers, worn denim, loafers, high-waisted corduroys, or layered over a printed shirt as shown. It also works beautifully as a gender-fluid tailored piece for anyone looking for a fitted-to-relaxed blazer with color and structure.

Shown on TY, who is 5’10”, 175 lb, and typically wears a modern men’s Medium / 40R jacket. On TY, the blazer fits close-to-true through the shoulders with a tailored body and slightly short sleeve, suggesting a best modern fit around men’s Medium / 40R.

Based on TY’s stated modern size and the way the blazer fits in the photos, this appears best for a modern men’s Medium or 40R. The shoulders sit relatively close, the body has a tailored fit, and the sleeves appear slightly cropped on TY’s 33″ sleeve measurement. For a shorter arm length, the sleeve may fit closer to standard.

Vintage sizing varies greatly by brand, country, garment type, and time period. The marked vintage size may not reflect today’s sizing standards. Whenever possible, we provide both the original marked size and our estimated modern US size equivalent. This estimate is based on the item’s era, construction, fabric behavior, relevant size references, and how the piece fits on the model shown. We do not clip, pin, or artificially alter garments when photographing them. The model’s size, measurements, and visible fit are the best guides for understanding modern fit.

This store is about as good as it gets when it comes to second-hand, quality, and well known products. I can't speak as much on the women's section, but the men's had a very wide range of styles and brands. From amazing Ralph Lauren denim to classy vintage coats this place has the works. Not only is it a gem for its wares, but the owner of the place is just wonderful. She is nice and will help you find exactly what you're looking for, and maybe even something you didn't even know you needed. My pickups from my first time included a navy Air Force Peacoat, a cashmere v-neck sweater and a pair of that amazing Ralph Lauren denim that I mentioned. I would highly recommend this store to anyone if you are looking for higher end quality and rarity for a fair price. I know that I will definitely be making a return visit sometime soon.

I helped out the Free People's Boutique by Quirk by sorting racks and registering shoppers on a Saturday. It was a humbling experience. I was asked to pass on so much gratitude to Melynda and her team by every guest I had the pleasure to assist.

Quirk is WONDERFUL! Small but mighty, always new and exciting finds, plus the real deal when it comes to fashion and expression. Owned by a stylist/awesome fashionista, with a passion and drive that offers the best experience in vintage shopping. I got the most gorgeous silk blouse...and some shoes that fit me like Cinderella! If you live in Los Angeles, you know how hard it is to find awesome vintage at a reasonable price. From the fight over Dior at a thrift store, to the snobby and over priced 'bo-ho' Buffalo Exchange, to the trendy and overly pretentious places on Melrose-it's just another face in the crowd, on the scene. It's more comfortable and personable at Quirk. You get the deals, yeah-but the experience is worth more!

Quirk is the kind of place you walk into and immediately feel like you've inherited the wardrobe of a rich, eccentric aunt who traveled the world and kept all the best pieces. Every rack feels intentional, lived in, and full of personality. Nothing feels random. Each item has a story, and you can sense it the moment you start browsing. The bag selection alone is worth the stop. There are so many standout pieces that feel like true finds, not just resale. The kind of bags you don't see twice. What really makes this place special is the owner, Melynda. She's genuinely fun to talk to and clearly passionate about what she curates. You can tell there's pride and care behind every piece in the shop. Talking with her about vintage fashion and the stories behind the items made the experience feel personal, not transactional. This ended up being one of the coolest spots I stumbled into in the fashion district. If you appreciate vintage that feels curated and soulful rather than picked over, Quirk is a must.

This is such a fabulous find! A true gem tucked away in DTLA!! I went looking for vintage men’s items to match a watch I was gifted, and Melynda helped me pick out the most beautiful suit. She’s amazing too - she has the most fun and quirky style, but also donates clothes to victims of the wildfires. She gave me a tour of “The People’s Free Boutique” and it’s laid out to make those who have lost everything feel like they are really shopping for high-end items rather than getting things for free. I will be back to support Quirk Vintage again!!
