Ralph Lauren Raw Silk Jacket/Blazer. Beige in color. Size 8.
100% silk with polyester lining.
From Ralph Lauren's 1984 spring/summer collection inspired by the movie 'Out of Africa'.
The jacket would look beautiful paired with tweed, a prairie floral skirt, or jeans.
Pieces from this Ralph Lauren collection are part of the Metropolitan Museum's (N.Y., New York) permanent exhibit: https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/141406
Please note:
The fabric is raw silk, therefore a loose weave with nubby texture, and extended threads. This is the nature hotsell of the textile.
There is some slight yellowing, discoloring on the back right shoulder (refer to the last image). This is normal considering the age of the garment and that it is a natural fiber. Not certain if professional dry-cleaning can remedy this. I will leave it to the purchaser to decide how to treat it. I cannot guarantee that it can be removed.
In good vintage condition. (Comes from a smoke/pet free home)
Ralph Lauren doesn't produce clothing of this caliber anymore. These were truly inspired pieces.
