$375.00
80's 90s Animal Print

Gold, bronze, and black sequins transform an animal-inspired pattern into a richly reflective surface. This striking vintage jacket pairs sculpted, padded shoulders with a deep V-neckline and an elongated silhouette. Six decorative gold-tone buttons lend the appearance of double-breasted tailoring, while a discreet metal hook-and-eye closure secures the front. A little wild, a little theatrical, and beautifully suited to life after dark.

Why We Love It

The interplay of metallic color and bold pattern makes this piece feel like wearable textile artwork. Wear it over a simple black dress for evening, or with a silk camisole and dark denim for glamour with an effortless edge.

Collector’s Notes

The jacket’s appeal lies in its combination of structured tailoring and a highly decorative surface. Padded shoulders give the shimmering pattern a strong architectural frame, while the ornamental buttons preserve the visual rhythm of a double-breasted jacket without functioning as its closure. The French Collizioni attribution is supplied by Mon Luxe Vintage; no original label remains to verify the maker.
