              Black leather jacket with removable, panelled sleeves that attach at the shoulders via buckles and leather straps. The cut and design of the jacket take inspiration from metal armour. The main body fastens at the centre front with four worn black metal press studs and features four pockets—two on each side. The lower pockets have flaps, while the upper pockets are welted.

              The sleeves are constructed in multiple parts, with a shaped elbow piece connecting the upper and lower arm sections. The inside of the elbow has a curved cut-out, covered by a folded circular patch. The sleeves attach to a shaped shoulder piece, which is buckled to the body of the jacket at the shoulder neckline.

              2017.337.39 · Item · Autumn Winter 2010
              Part of Westminster Menswear Archive
              Single-breasted, one-button tailored jacket made from black-printed silver-coloured Mylar. The outer is black, while the inner lining is silver. The jacket features a narrow collar and lapels, elasticated cuffs, and two narrow, welted horizontal slit pockets at the front hip level. There is visible wear around the collar and several tears in the Mylar. The Mylar, specially treated and processed in Italy by overprinting black on one side, was not intended for use in structured garments, resulting in tearing, particularly along the stitch lines. Some seams and hems remain unfinished, suggesting this piece is likely a fitting sample or toile made for a runway show.

The jacket features two jetted flap pockets and one slanted breast pocket. The sleeve cuffs have three horn buttons on a sham vent, with a trompe l’oeil shorter sleeve above, ending in line with the edge of the trompe l’oeil body. This shorter sleeve has three non-working stitched buttonholes.
