THE ARTIFACT: EARLY 90s UTILITY AVANT-GARDE
This rare collector's piece originates from the "Golden Era" of Jean Paul Gaultier (approx. 1993–1995), produced under the legendary AEFFE S.p.A. license in Italy. It serves as a prime example of Gaultier’s visionary ability to transform functional utility wear into sculptural high fashion.

The jacket reinterprets the classic safari blazer with an avant-garde twist: A drawstring hem allows the silhouette to be altered from a sharp, tailored fit to a voluminous "parachute" look. The standout feature is the intricately gathered pockets, which give the piece an organic, almost theatrical structure—a signature hallmark of Gaultier's deconstructivist approach in the 90s.

THE DETAILS:

Era: Early 1990s (Aeffe Production Era).

Line: JPG CLASSIQUE – The iconic diffusion line that translated runway DNA into wearable art.

Material: The fabric features a cool touch, a matte, sophisticated sheen, and a heavy, elegant drape.

Interior: A fluid, high-quality blend of 60% Acetate and 40% Rayon lined with the signature "Jean Paul Gaultier" script logo fabric.

Color: Deep Espresso Brown.

CONDITION & SIZE:

Condition: Excellent Vintage Condition. Well preserved, all buttons intact, and no visible flaws.

Size: Label marks IT 42. In modern sizing, this best fits an International Small (S) / EU 36 or a small EU 38 for a more fitted look.

Measurements (laid flat):

Shoulder to shoulder: 40 cm

Pit to pit: 44 cm

Length: 71 cm

In the world of vintage collecting, the "Produced by AEFFE S.p.A." tag is a seal of quality. During the late 80s and early 90s, this Italian luxury manufacturer held the license for Gaultier. Pieces from this specific period are renowned for a level of craftsmanship and fabric quality that later mass productions often lacquered.

This jacket dates back to Gaultier's creative peak—the same era he redefined pop culture and fashion hierarchies. It is not a retro remake, but an authentic document of 90s fashion history.

A Note on Archival Fashion
Please keep in mind that these rare pieces have lived a past life. Minimal signs of wear or a natural patina are entirely normal and part of their unique history.
Care & Condition
I treat every garment with the utmost respect. Each piece is carefully hand-washed, steamed, or ozone-treated so it reaches you in beautiful, ready-to-wear condition. However, due to the age and nature of vintage textiles, a very faint vintage scent may occasionally linger.
Sizing & Fit
To showcase the intended drape and silhouette in our editorial photos, garments that are larger than the model may be subtly pinned. Please never rely on the photos alone for sizing; always use the detailed flat-lay measurements provided in the description to ensure a perfect fit.
Color Accuracy
We strive to capture the true essence of each garment, though slight color variations may occur depending on the lighting and your screen's calibration.
Boutique Policies
To ensure absolute fairness for all of our collectors, we operate strictly on a first-come, first-served basis. We do not accept reservations or higher bids on items that have already been sold. Additionally, as our prices reflect the rarity, authentication, and extensive restoration of each piece, they are strictly non-negotiable. Please take the time to review all measurements and details carefully before securing your piece.
