Fall 1982 Gianfranco Ferre Runway Black Blue Wrap Leather Jacket w Wide Sleeves & Huge Collar No Defined Waist The halter closes with hook

The halter closes with hook & eye at the back of the neck

Where it is gathered up and into the back of the skirt these create their own fabulous design as they fall from the back of the skirt

Panels of jersey curve up from the waist and wrap over you

Kelly’s work pushed racial and cultural boundaries with golliwog logos

I have seen one other come up over the years but it did not have the matching belt

Fall 1982 Gianfranco Ferre Runway Black Blue Wrap Leather Jacket w Wide Sleeves & Huge Collar No Defined Waist The halter closes with hookGianfranco Ferre is best known for his years at the helm of Dior where he headed the Atelier and House from 1989 until 1996 however, just prior to that he was designing his own line that launched in 1978 as a ready to wear line and then eventually added a couture line in 1986. This is an amazing jacket from that period in the early 1980s when he was designing under his own name and we found the reference runway photos from the 1982 show. I love that
