            Calvin Klein Mylar Blazer
            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.
