Introducing a complete one-of-a-kind, unique and late 1980s luxury Mondi structured wool check blazer in a rare Y S L inspired yellow plaid The colors and lighting in the first picture truly reflect the colour of the jacket
This exceptional late 1980s Mondi piece showcases the brand’s mastery of bold tailoring with a nod to continental elegance. Constructed from a dense, high-quality wool blend, the blazer features a sharp check pattern in black, cobalt blue, and scarlet intersected by a rich saffron yellow—a distinctive tone closely associated with Yves Saint Laurent’s palette during the decade. The jacket’s design is shaped with structured shoulders, a tailored silhouette, and a longer hip-length cut that creates a clean, architectural line.
Key design elements include a stand-up mandarin collar and deep navy velvet contrast detailing at the collar and cuffs, both lending depth and texture. Six gold-toned, crest-embossed buttons add further dimension and status detailing. The front pockets are finished with matching navy velvet flaps, anchoring the design with a sense of grounded luxury. Inside, the blazer is fully lined in satin for a smooth fit. This is an incredibly rare archive-worthy piece, in pristine condition, reflecting Mondi’s brief yet memorable experimentation with power tailoring at the height of the late 1980s fashion movement.
