Curator's Description
Curator's DescriptionDiscover the Lardini Metallic Gold and Silver Lurex Yarn Gala Jacket, a bold evening piece designed to command attention. Woven with shimmering gold and silver lurex threads, the fabric creates a dynamic glitter effect that catches the light from every angle, making it a natural choice for special events and black tie occasions with a modern edge. The silhouette is defined by padded shoulders and elegant shawl lapels, lending structure and theatrical polish to the design. It is unapologetically eye catching, yet executed with the refinement expected of Italian tailoring.
Made in Italy, the jacket reflects Lardini’s ability to balance expressive fabric with precise construction. The structured shoulders anchor the brilliance of the lurex weave, while the clean lines ensure the piece remains tailored rather than costume like. Offered new with tags, and complete with the original hanger and dustbag, it represents a pristine addition to any formal wardrobe seeking a touch of statement glamour.

Sartorial Details
Full Canvas Construction
A sartorial jacket - or coat - needs an interlining that will help give it shape and mold it. Canvas gives the item a tailored and crafted look. In short, it breathes life into it. Purely technical, canvas is made from either horsehair, wool, mohair or camel hair. It could also be a mix of them all, with varying thickness and weight. The canvas is stitched to the jacket, often by hand, thus making the canvas pieces 'floating' in the middle of the inner and outer cloth. This gives the jacket added flexibility. The canvas runs from the upper parts, all the way down to the end of the jacket. After you wear your canvassed suit for a while, it will begin to take your shape and look incredibly natural.
Soft Shoulders
Soft Shoulders, or lightly padded shoulder construction, gives a softer, more casual silhouette to a tailored jacket. Soft shoulders have little padding and follow the contour of the individual’s shoulder to accentuate the wearer’s natural features.
Clean Lapel
Single Button Closure
Due to their roots in traditional eveningwear styles, one-button suit jackets are frequently tailored with a longer cut compared to other suit variations. By keeping the button fastened, a well-proportioned appearance is maintained. It is crucial to always button these jackets when standing.
Chest Pocket
The barchetta pocket is often thought to be a tailoring detail exclusively from Italy. The word “barchetta” is Italian for “little boat.” It describes how the pocket floats on the chest, gently angled upwards, like the bow of a sailboat.
Darts
The tailors adds two darts - think of them as pinched seams - to ensure the jacket’s body achieves a slim silhouette. The process, called mezzo punto riprese, is done entirely by hand.
Gold Buttons
Throughout history, certain suit jackets have been adorned with golden buttons, which serve both decorative and symbolic purposes. The use of golden buttons can be traced back to the military and naval uniforms of the 18th and 19th centuries. In those times, officers and high-ranking individuals displayed their status and wealth through the incorporation of gold accents.
Jetted Pockets
The first jacket pockets were sewn inside the lining or seams of garments, and are called “jetted” pockets. In their simplest form, they consist of little more than a slit. Suits that are the most formal, especially tuxedos, have no flap pockets altogether to give the piece a more streamlined look.
