Introducing a complete one-of-a-kind, unique and bold 1980s velvet statement jacket with geometric and floral detailing
This exceptional piece from the late 1980s captures the exuberant artistry of the new wave era. Made from plush black velvet, the jacket features an intricate fusion of metallic gold geometric motifs and vivid floral arrangements in shades of red and fuchsia. The open-front design is finished with a black velvet trim and detailed braiding along the edge, lending structure and contrast to the ornate print.
Architectural shoulder pads create a powerful silhouette that’s quintessentially 80s, while the cut offers a relaxed yet refined fit through the body. Fully lined and expertly tailored, this jacket was likely produced in a high-quality European fashion house during the peak of postmodern textile innovation. It stands as a true example of experimental design from a decade that embraced maximalism and texture in equal measure.
