{"product_id":"special06valentino","title":"–SPECIAL– \"VALENTINO\"\nEarly 2010s lace and leather double-breasted jacket","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eSince its founding, VALENTINO has continued to refine its aesthetic sense through the core of Roman couture spirit, updating elegance while sharpening its sense of beauty for each era. We introduce a beautiful, special piece that unites the extremes of materials into one.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThis exquisite piece combines the strength of leather with the delicacy of cord lace at the same temperature, balancing quiet power and elegance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eWhat first captures the eye is the three-dimensional expression of the cord lace used throughout, which not only creates a sense of transparency but also features embroidered edges that produce shadows, making the pattern stand out without sinking in. The craftsmanship's density is more apparent when viewed up close. Overlaying large lapels and front panels of lamb leather creates a role similar to armor that preserves the fragility of the lace, elevating it into a structure that embodies both softness and strength.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThe front features a double-breasted design, and the metal buttons on the subdued leather surface create a rhythm that prevents the lace, which is highly decorative, from appearing overly sweet. It is an excellent point that it functions as a neat jacket. Furthermore, by inserting leather panels around the pockets and cuffs, it adds practicality and durability to the areas touched, while framing the overall silhouette, maintaining the material's brilliance without scattering, and achieving a high level of cohesion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThe back also features a leather yoke that runs across the shoulders and back, providing a core to the appearance from shoulders to back. This prevents reliance solely on the soft drape of the lace, creating a three-dimensional effect. The inside is lined with silk, making contact with the skin smooth while preventing direct contact with the lace, resulting in a very elegant overall impression despite the tense appearance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eAdditionally, the background suggesting this item dates from around 2012 to 2014 includes the modern label design with a white background and black sans-serif lettering of VALENTINO and MADE IN ITALY, which aligns with the style after the logo refresh post-2008. The domestic agency notation indicating Valentino Japan Co., Ltd., reflects the direct management system of that time, and the small size tab printed with only numbers placed at the top of the quality label conforms to the management style of 2010s prêt-à-porter, ensuring the credibility of the appraisal.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThis jacket is especially recommended for those who want to wear elegance as a sense of tension rather than sweetness, or for those who wish to incorporate a look that speaks to the depth of the material within black into their daily wardrobe. As a MOOD, it is proposed as a piece that quietly adds a touch of class to everyday wardrobe, not just for special occasions. Instead of clashing strong materials, the balance created by treating lace and leather as equals allows it to be worn regardless of gender or mood, naturally evoking a poised atmosphere.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eStyling-wise, pairing a minimal shirt with neat slacks to highlight the contrast of materials will naturally bring out the elegance rooted in the brand's couture heritage. Layering over a dress or long bottoms to emphasize vertical lines causes the shadow of the lace to change expression with each step, creating a genderless elegance. For the footwear, matching the texture with leather shoes or boots enhances the overall sense of unity, giving the entire outfit a luxurious finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eTake this opportunity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VALENTINO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47539830358254,"sku":null,"price":1389.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/2751\/1534\/files\/D1DE3B85-2B54-43EA-8634-EC914F14F620.jpg?v=1768639726","url":"https:\/\/mood-by-link.com\/en-sg\/products\/special06valentino","provider":"MOOD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
