Vintage Givenchy Couture Crème Silk Jacket Coat, 1990s

Best known for his high-end, feminine silhouettes, French haute couture designer Hubert de Givenchy rose to international acclaim during the 1960s by creating signature looks for actress Audrey Hepburn. Although Givenchy began experimenting with bolder colors and pattern options around the 1980s, his designs maintain a classic romantic elegance.

This Givenchy jacket is done in a gorgeous couture-level crème silk that has a light texture to it. The jacket has lots of fabric and is cut and draped to perfection. It falls from lightly padded shoulders to an overlapping hem at the upper thigh in a youthful swing silhouette. The jacket begins with a flattering deep V neckline and wide sleeves that fall several inches above the wrists. The lower portion of the front of the jacket is gently pleated at the diagonal seams that mirror the neckline, which are further defined by pockets at each hip.
