Dating to the F/W 1999 collection, this Thierry Mugler tailored jacket is crafted from superfine black wool with a sculpted hourglass construction and Swarovski crystal embellished lapel. Seen in variation on the runway, this piece captures Mugler’s late 90's precision tailoring at its most wearable: strong shoulders, sharply defined waist and an elongated line through the body. The graduated original crystal detailing traces the deep shawl collar, adding drama to the otherwise restrained silhouette.
Finished with concealed front fastening and fully lined, this is a rare archival Mugler jacket that sits somewhere between eveningwear and power tailoring, looking equally compelling worn alone or styled casually with denim.
Made in France.
