Thierry Mugler Spring/Summer 1997 Haute Couture ‘Les Insectes’ Collection Black White Lambskin Leather Longsleeve Zip Jacket

Thierry Mugler Spring/Summer 1997 Haute Couture ‘Les Insectes’ Collection Black White Lambskin Leather Longsleeve Zip Jacket.

Black and white jacket accented with standing collar from Thierry Mugler: zip-up jacket with black lined paneling thoughout giving the illusion of an insect’s body on the front. Having previously dressed his glam models in armor-like designs inspired by vehicles (Spring 1992) and robots (Fall 1995 Couture), Thierry Mugler added a touch of Kafka’s Metamorphosis to his approach for Haute Couture Spring ’97. Before the butterfly finale, all manner of winged and hard-shelled creatures made appearances. Among them this fabulous jacket. The delicate lines of the corset section flow down the body and give a beautiful ‘A-line’ effect, which is emphasized by the soulder pads and the pointed center-front hem. One zipper closure on the front. Main fabric is lambskin leather.
