Geoffrey Beene 1990s Black Woven Jacket with Emerald Contrast TrimManifold Vintage's Spring Summer 2026 Collection features two black, crepey, 1990s Geoffrey Beene jackets; we think they are best described together. The jacket described in this listing is Jacket A, this link goes to Jacket B. A comparison image can be found in this listings photos. Jacket A and Jacket B, viewed diachronically (looking at change over time), reflect Beene's turn away from ornamentation and contrast during his final years at the helm

and ornamentation

resulting in this turquoise-blue YSL wool pantsuit--the only one of its kind on the market

Pants seem possibly to have been tailored prior

It shows Gigli’s design vocabulary to be conducive to the drama and exaggerated proportions common to the so-called “power dressing” of the prior decade

Armani's Fall/Winter 1996 included several iterations of this design: a bodice-style top with a square neckline and stark contrasting black and ivory stripes

A true example of "stuff really was made better back then": the horizontal pleats within the plissé fabric are vertically textured

Fabric composition feels like synthetic blend

Valid on any Manifold Vintage purchase

We therefore recommend these trousers for a waist measurement of approximately 26–34"
