Talk about a blast from the past–on a whim I just googled what I remembered about my favorite blurb from the J. Peterman catalogue (circa mid-'90s), and lo, there it was. The skirt isn’t available, but the prose still is.
I was a nerdy teenager, and wanted nothing more than to be beautiful and mysterious. Alas, the skirt wasn’t enough.
Did you have a favorite? Link to it. I love these.

I’ve always loved the fact that John O’Hurley (the actor who played Mr Peterman in Seinfeld was one of (possibly the) major investor in re-starting the brand in the late 1990s.
I wish they still had their Titanic collection.
I can’t separate the real Peterman catalog from the Seinfeld Peterman. Maybe I need to go on the Peterman Reality Tour.
:o I thought the OP was pointing out a parody site. No wonder I can’t find the urban sombrero.
I read somewhere there’s a crowdfunding campaign to get the J Peterman Company to start making them IRL.
