1980s Vintage Moorcroft Double Breasted Textured Suit Size 42R

 


A sharp and characterful 1980s suit by Moorcroft, featuring a classic double-breasted silhouette with a refined textured micro-pattern throughout. The fabric presents as a deep charcoal grey with a subtle woven design, giving it depth and interest while remaining versatile and easy to style. The blazer is cut in a traditional double-breasted style with peak lapels and a strong, structured shoulder line, creating that iconic power-dressing shape of the era. The trousers are tailored with a clean, straight leg and gentle pleating, complementing the blazer’s structured fit and maintaining a balanced, timeless silhouette. The fabric has a smooth yet slightly textured feel, suggesting a quality wool blend suited to both formal wear and more styled, modern looks. Dating to the late 1980s to early 1990s, this suit perfectly captures the era’s tailoring trends while remaining highly wearable today. Labelled Moorcroft, a lesser-known but well-made British label, offering solid construction and dependable quality. Best suited to a modern UK men’s Medium to Large (approx. 42R). Trousers appear to sit around a 36–38" waist with a regular inside leg (approx. 31–32"). A brilliant statement suit that can be worn formally or styled more casually — the blazer pairs particularly well with denim or black trousers for a contemporary, fashion-forward look. In very good vintage condition with only light, expected signs of wear to the lining.

    At My Vintage, we take time to carefully measure each item of vintage clothing so that you have the best chance of ensuring a good fit whenever you buy from us. We measure the clothing laid flat as the diagrams show below and for bust, chest, waist and hips we double the measurement. For example, if the waist measures 17" across when laid flat then this would equate to a 34" waist (17 x 2 = 34)

     

    We use the measurements we collate to assign each item of vintage clothing with an approximate modern-day size. For example, a dress with a 34" bust, 28" waist and 34" hips would normally equate to a current UK size 10. The labels on vintage clothing can vary massively depending on country of origin and date of manufacture.  Clothing sizes have changed over the years and from decade to decade we see alternative types of sizing as well as variations on the way measurements equate to dress sizes.

     

    We always recommend that you double-check the measurements of the vintage clothing item you are interested in, ideally by measuring an item of clothing you already own and that fits well, and comparing these measurements. There can be variations due to the desired fit, shape and fabric of an item but our size guidelines are normally very accurate and take the stress out of buying vintage online.
