JEAN PAUL GAULTIER

Pre-owned Silk Suit Jacket In Other

Jean Paul Gaultier vintage collection ""woman/made in Italy"" suit jacket in noble non-elasticated wild silk material in ""papyrus yellow"" color. Condition/Size? Extraordinary model in romantic period style as if during the Renaissance we had mixed the man's suit jacket with the woman's corset dress, in fact the designer favors the iconic corset in his creations because it is a true symbol of the female body and here Jean Paul Gaultier once again gives us a sublime demonstration of it in a suit jacket with integrated underwire. Missing material label, it is wild silk, precious natural fabric which is expressed by relief or roughness in points or lines which offers a beautiful character. Jacket with integrated shoulder pads, a small asymmetrical pocket under the shoulder with wide edging, long sleeves with fabric buttons at the cuffs, triangular point flap collar which can be rolled up to obtain a Japanese-style jacket. Long underwires magnificently located on 3/4 of the bust, lined and designed with topstitching on their contour: in front there are 2 underwires going up to each armpit and two others going under each breast then to add in relief two large rectangular pockets which cover the frames in the lower part on each side. Finally on the back side two double frames going to the back of the armpits and in the center going to the center of the shoulder blades the corseting of multiple silver metal eyelets and precious khaki green silk lace (⚠️the corset only serves as decoration!). The edges of the buttons and buttonholes are doubled in width on the inside for a good open jacket fit. Very beautiful khaki green acetate crepe lining with flap pocket. nA very charming piece to wear over a dress, palazzo pants or maxi skirt. Non-original cover provided. ? Excellent vintage condition because jacket used once or twice but too small as evidenced by the small repair under the inner armpit (photo) ⚠️ Material label missing. As a reminder, artisanal and non-industrial creation, micro-irregularities, protruding threads can appear like here the natural fabric which naturally makes points, lines or rare lighter or darker fibers. A micro mark on the back (photo zoom) but imperceptible. The collar, due to being folded from long storage, makes an interior line. Small melted supports at the bottom of the handle (photo). A smaller button but it plays its role. Washed, ironed (fabric which maintains a natural crease) non-smoking house so no odor except that of organic fabric softener. ?
