Description
This Givenchy jacket from the late 80’s or early 1990’s is both softly feminine and totally tough-girl, rather similar to designer Thierry Mugler’s jackets of around the same time. The lemon meringue fabric is a blend of rayon and linen, so fairly lightweight. The jacket is closely fitted at the waist, which is further defined by flower-like “lapels” near the hook closure. The more traditional lapels are actual double lapels, the ones underneath slightly wider than the top layer. The lapels have matching lemon topstitching, of which 2 stitches are missing near the left shoulder. The shoulders of this jacket are dramatic, with rounded padding creating a bold shape (which is also flattering, slimming the waist). The jacket is lined in off-white satin, and is in very good to excellent condition, the only issue being the 2 missing stitches.
