With signature Cavalli flair vintage Italian leather jacket, this remarkable collectors piece is the point where art meets fashion. This vintage Italian leather jacket is made from fine supple chamois leather, with an exotic hand painted Japanese style pattern, screened across the whole garment. In parts, stitching surrounds the pattern, giving it extra dimension. The stud buttons fashioned as flowers, are stamped on the back and add to the beautiful detailing, making it feeling like an antique piece. It reminds me of the designs that Carlo Bugatti made on vellum around 1900.
There are 2 pink areas where the dye has run on the back, please see last photos. It's not very noticeable, as you can see from the wider shot of the back. There is also some wrinkling to the leather, but it is in keeping with the vintage look.
