500.00
Fabulous French classic tuxedo jacket or redingotte with narrow, rounded little lapels and a double breasted, slimming, long cut. A signature garment from the absolute DIVA of French couture, the woman who was declared one of the 10 best dressed women in the world...and my absolute favorite.
*SONIA RYKIEL* Made in France
Created in the tradition of masculine inspired long blazers or suit jackets (Yves St. Laurent opened the door for masculine inspired suits for ladies in the early 70's and the rest is history), this lightweight blazer/jacket adds a spin to the almost masculine cut...darted both front and back with the signature Rykiel seams sewn on the outside, back yoke, narrow rounded long lapels creating that tuxedo look and a very revealing decollete. Just a touch of formality to what wants to be an everyday elegant blazer...your perfect cocktail jacket or even a fancy business or evening one...versatility and functionality plus an exquisite French couture unparalleled quality.
In the fashion show it was presented over a flowy floral dress with ankle boots. With Sonia R, the line between masculine lines and feminine touches is often blurred but the end result is as unconventional and classy as the women who wear the garments:)...I adore the style and so will you!
Lightweight black crepe fabric with satin backing and no additional lining, the fabric extends and doubles to create a lining, back is unlined. Double breasted with crepe covered buttons and tiny metal SR monograms in gold. Light shoulder padding for support, 65/35 viscose/acetate fabric.
Part of my "heavy artillery" so to speak of haute couture and couture pieces I personally imported from France.
