Founded in Italy in 1973, byblos is a brand that embodies the spirit of Italian fashion, with legendary designers such as Gianni Versace, Guy Paulin, and Keith Varty and Alan Cleaver, who built the brand's golden age, taking on the creative direction. This piece is an archive piece from the 80s to the 90s, showcasing their specialty: artistic textile design. It encapsulates the intellectual playfulness and glamour of Milan fashion at the time. This vest, which boasts a level of completion like a still life painting, is a product with high documentary value, going beyond the realm of mere clothing. The overwhelming all-over pattern design on the front is composed of intelligent motifs reminiscent of an old study. The meticulously drawn quill pens, sealing wax, antique scissors, and designs of letters tied with ribbons, old books, and coins harmonize beautifully with the deep brown base color. The back uses 100% viscose fabric with a smooth luster and beautiful drape, and by tightening the heavy buckle back (cinch back) placed at the waist, it is possible to accentuate the refined silhouette that conforms to the body, unique to Italian craftsmanship. The sartorial techniques of the time are evident in every detail, such as the neat three-button V-zone, the carefully tailored pocket welts, and the proud "MADE IN ITALY" inscription on the material tag. The contrast in texture created by the cotton front and the viscose back is also excellent, and simply layering it over a white shirt allows you to exude a classic yet avant-garde atmosphere. Please experience the essence of the timeless Italian archive for yourself.
