This Harve Benard blazer is a classic. A true black. Some photos here show it lighter. Could be worn for years. I wore it a couple of times, but sadly, it no longer fits me. Will dress up any skirt, dress, or pants. Still in very good condition. No spots seen. Quilted fabric. Can be washed on cold and dried on low setting, but I put it on a hanger after washing and let it drip dry. Approximate measurements: Armpit to armpit: 19 1/2 inches Sleeve length: 22 inches Blazer length: 22 1/2 inches from top seam to bottom of blazer
