"GIANFRANCO FERRE" 90’s-00’s architecturally tailored three button wool blazer

By translating architectural structural calculations into tailoring, GIANFRANCO FERRE has presented mode as the beauty of reason, and this is a refined three-button jacket that vividly embodies Ferre's own aesthetic.

At first glance minimal, yet designed to shape the wearer's contours in three dimensions.

The first impression is set by the well-proportioned lapel and the straightforward front line that falls from the chest to the hem, which, without overstatement, sharpens the overall appearance through the jacket's formal structure. The front features a classic three-button configuration, with the button placement visually elongating the upper body, and even with minimal innerwear, it avoids looking overly loose, which is a charm.

While the shoulder area appears structured, it is not stiff; the line flowing from the shoulder seam to the sleeve connects smoothly, allowing the fabric to follow movement beautifully and quietly maintaining an air of dignity. The body is tapered with darts, ensuring the waistline remains defined, creating a balanced look that does not emphasize gender. Additionally, the slit pockets without flaps are placed subtly low, preventing distraction and allowing the clean, refined appearance typical of tailoring to be appreciated more purely.

Made primarily of wool, with rayon used for the lining, the surface has a subdued matte finish that exudes elegance, while the sleeve entry is smooth, making daily wear and removal less stressful. The main label, embroidered in white on a black background, features the style of the time that strongly emphasizes the FERRE lettering, and the zigzag cut at the edge of the label adds a classic touch reminiscent of 90s Italian heavy clothing, elevating the mood.

The most consistent era background is from the late 1990s to early 2000s, with the domestic agency notation under the Elvis name indicating the period's official import background. Additionally, the black woven label finished with pinking cut, and the heat-sensitive printed paper tags common in the 90s, confirm that this individual piece is a mature product directly overseen by Ferre himself. After gaining experience at Dior, the period when he refined architectural silhouettes under his own name is clearly reflected in the well-balanced design.

I recommend this exquisite piece for those who want to create an impression through tailoring precision rather than flashy design, making it ideal for formal or semi-formal occasions like work or dining where you want to naturally add a touch of class. As a MOOD, by viewing the jacket not as formal wear but as a tool to maintain everyday posture, we can propose integrating luxury into daily life.

Styling-wise, pairing slacks with a shirt or cut-and-sew, and simply layering this jacket over them is already quite complete, and depending on the temperature, layering a long coat can further emphasize the architectural vertical lines of Ferre. Finish the look with leather shoes or boots to define the outline, and pair with a minimal leather bag for a piece that exudes both elegance and a sense of high fashion, regardless of gender.

Take this opportunity.
