Giorgio Armani Red Leather Jacket & Belt
Italian designer Giorgio Armani is renowned for his sophisticated aesthetic and exquisite attention to detail. He began his fashion career in window dressing at a Milan department store before gaining recognition for his expertly tailored suits. His designs tend to feel classic even when they push the boundaries of fashion, which resonates with his philosophy on style. As the designer once said, “elegance is not about being noticed, it’s about being remembered.”
A perfect example of the Italian luxury and detailed craftsmanship Armani is known for, this incredible jacket exudes an aura of chic sophistication. Done in lamb leather, the jacket features intricate layers of small black, red, and grey leather scallops that have been individually woven and stitched into the red leather base.
The jacket begins with a simple jewel neckline done in a band of solid red leather, which frames the design while drawing the eye upwards. The layers of scallops create a pleasing rhythm and nice textural contrast throughout, while columns of wider scallops that extend from the shoulder to the hem at the back and front of the bodice emphasize the natural lines of the body.
Size: Large / 46IT
Shoulders: 17.5 inches
Bust: 44 inches
Waist and hem: 46 inches (the belt will allow to make the waist more fitted)
Length: 23 inches
The jacket has more of a relaxed fit and falls from lightly structured shoulders to the hips, creating an A line silhouette. An accompanying wide red leather sash belt may be worn cinched at the waist, allowing for versatile styling. The design is finished with a strip of red leather with stitch detailing along the back of each sleeve and the center back of the jacket, creating a sleek, tailored look.
An unforgettable addition to the discerning fashion lover’s wardrobe, this extraordinary jacket can easily be styled with palazzo pants or a slip dress and is the perfect choice for a gala, evening soiree, or special occasion. This Armani jacket is lined in red silk and has concealed snap closures along the central front placket. It originally retailed for $7,000. In pristine condition save for a lingering perfume odor. High-quality vintage pieces like this are yours to live in and love while increasing in value every year. It’s never too soon to start collecting them, as an investment in your wardrobe—and in yourself.
