A true statement piece from the era of maximalist fashion, this vintage Modi Denim jacket captures the bold spirit of Western-inspired dressing with extraordinary hand-applied embellishment throughout. Crafted from black cotton denim with a rayon lining, the jacket is richly decorated with colorful sequins and beadwork arranged in Southwestern-inspired motifs, accented by dramatic white beaded fringe and whimsical carousel horse designs.
The relaxed bomber silhouette features snap-front closures, a pointed collar, and an elasticized hem, while the vivid turquoise, red, white, gold, and silver embellishments create incredible dimension and movement. Equal parts Western, rodeo, and art-to-wear, this collectible piece feels reminiscent of the exuberant embellished jackets popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Wear it with vintage denim and boots for a modern take on Western dressing, or layer it over a simple slip dress to let the craftsmanship take center stage.
