about me

A richly textured late 80s cropped jacket by Silverado, crafted in a dense chenille tapestry weave with bold abstract swirls in red, olive, and deep teal. The fabric has a sculptural weight and plush hand, giving this short jacket a dramatic presence despite its minimal cut. Designed with a single-button closure and sharp cropped hem, it’s an easy statement layer over slips, velvet skirts, or high-waisted trousers.
