HELMUT LANG AW98 Nylon Bomber Jacket
EDITOR’S NOTES
The definition of “minimalism” has changed to something different than what it was in the 1990s. As one of the first minimalists and anti-fashion designers, Lang‘s design blurs the boundary between streetwear and high-end fashion. In Autumn/Winter 1998 collection, he presents a combination of sharp-cut traditional suiting, oversized outwears and ballistic vests. Helmut Lang’s distinctive aesthetic and vision has made him perhaps the most emulated designer among the new generation.
DETAILS
The garment is based on classic MA-1 style bomber jacket, cut with a drop shoulder and slightly cropped fit. It features quilted lining, silver-tone hardwares, sleeve pocket, two side and inner pockets. 91% polyamide, 9% polyurethane. Made in Italy.
