1980s black and white structured peplum jacket with an abstract graphic print.

Introducing a complete one-of-a-kind, unique and bold 1980s black and white structured peplum jacket with an abstract graphic print.

This striking jacket embodies the bold, power-dressing aesthetic of the 1980s with its strong silhouette, exaggerated shoulders, and cinched waist. Constructed from a lightweight woven fabric, it features an all-over black and white abstract print reminiscent of graphic, hand-drawn motifs seen in postmodern design, evoking the influence of artists like Keith Haring. The wide dolman sleeves create a dramatic shape, while the structured waist is emphasized by a wide, elasticated panel with ornate gold-tone filigree buttons. The jacket flares into an asymmetrical peplum hem, adding movement and a sculptural quality to the design. The notched lapel enhances its tailored structure, making it a standout statement piece from the era of high-impact fashion.

The abstract pattern, composed of geometric and organic shapes, has a graffiti-like quality that aligns with the expressive street art movement of the 1980s. The mix of hand-drawn elements and linear symbols gives it a graphic, avant-garde edge, making it a visually compelling design reflective of the experimental fashion of the time.
