This jacket is the new edition of a style from the FW1981 Collection. The garment, photographed by Aldo Fallai for the FW1981 campaign and also chosen by Vogue US in the shot by Irving Penn, represents a significant moment in the definition of a highly recognisable and sophisticated aesthetic. The garment stands out for its structured and exquisite construction, defined by a crew-neck and double-breasted line with padded shoulders and a waist accentuated by an integrated belt. The patch pockets on the sides fit harmoniously into the composition of the garment, while the workmanship of the upper part, characterised by plisse pleats and topstitching, introduces rhythm and depth. Crafted from cognac brown nappa lambskin, it features a soft, compact surface that highlights the construction. The Autumn/Winter 1981 collection draws inspiration from Japanese aesthetics, reworking traditional elements in a modern idiom. The shapes recall the ō-yoroi, the ceremonial armour of the samurai, through a structured construction and an exploration of the surface of the pieces. Materials such as silk and velvet are enriched with luminous finishes and decorative details, while the colour palette alternates deep, lacquered tones with warmer, more neutral nuances. The result is a balance between structural severity and fluidity, where cultural references and Western sensibilities blend into a coherent and recognisable aesthetic.
