From the couture fashion archive of style icon Iris Apfel, this extraordinary vintage Moschino Cheap & Chic blazer embodies Franco Moschino’s irreverent and playful approach to fashion. Dating to Spring/Summer 1994 (P/E 94), the piece features an allover Pop Art-inspired portrait print in vivid shades of pink, lime, lavender, peach, black, and aqua, transforming classic tailoring into wearable art.
True to Franco Moschino’s signature sense of humor, the blazer is finished with whimsical multicolored half-moon buttons in rainbow hues, adding an unmistakably joyful touch. The elongated silhouette, sharp lapels, flap pockets, and lightly structured shape create a striking balance between classic Italian tailoring and the designer’s eccentric visual language.
Pieces from Franco Moschino’s early collections have become increasingly collectible, and examples with provenance from Iris Apfel’s personal archive are exceptionally rare. Equal parts fashion history and statement piece, this blazer captures the spirit of two icons celebrated for their fearless individuality.
