This striking vintage Balmain by Christophe Decarnin evening jacket from Fall 2010 is crafted from an exceptionally rich brocade featuring opulent gold florals against a black background. It showcases the designer’s ultra-sharp, double-breasted tailoring, which became a signature of the house during his tenure.
The jacket features flap pockets, a breast pocket, and ornate gold-tone metal buttons at the front and cuffs. It is crafted from 38% acetate, 26% polyester, 19% acrylic, 9% metallic polyester, and 8% wool, and is fully lined in 52% rayon and 48% cotton. Made in France.
A truly showstopping piece.
