About the Item
Sumptuous yet understated, this Gianni Tolentino Milano jacket showcases the designer's talent for translating couture techniques into modern evening separates. Cut in Italy from a lustrous chocolate-brown jacquard, the fabric shimmers with a subtle geometric diamond weave that catches light in motion, instantly distinguishing the piece from plain satins and crepes.
What makes it special
• sculpted silhouette: softly padded shoulders, princess seams and a nipped waist create an hour-glass line without heavy structure
• couture details: self-covered buttons, hand-tacked facings and a fully hand-stitched hem speak to atelier craft rarely found outside bespoke tailoring
• versatile color: richer than black, the warm espresso tone moves effortlessly from cocktails to black-tie and pairs with ivory, gold or tonal browns
• limited production: Tolentino produced in small Milanese workshops; pieces from the 1990s surface only sporadically on the secondary market
Why it deserves the asking price
• Italian make, premium jacquard blend (approx. 60 % silk / 40 % acetate) with a gleaming finish and substantial drape
• pristine vintage condition: worn once for a private gallery opening, then preserved in a cedar wardrobe - no pulls, odours or lining stress
• collectible label: Gianni Tolentino dressed European aristocracy and elite society in the 1980s-90s; surviving examples are sought by vintage connoisseurs
How it looks and feels in person
Imagine the polish of a classic dinner jacket, but lighter and fluid: the fabric glides over the skin, the softly rolled collar frames décolleté beautifully, and the quiet sheen elevates any simple slip dress or tailored trouser.
Provenance & history
Acquired directly from the original owner, a Milanese art patron who commissioned several Tolentino pieces in the mid-1990s. Stored in climate-controlled conditions away from sunlight.
