This is an unused 1980s New Wave jacket, new with tags and made by Déjà Vu Créations. This unused 1980s New Wave jacket has an early to mid 1980s design vibe to it with padded and squared shoulders, medium width notched lapels, wide cut upper silhouette that narrows to the waist, a double button front with single button closure and jetted pockets at either side and chest. The pockets are still sewn shut as is the double flap vent at the back. The fabric has a distinctive linear pattern in satiny white that looks silvery against a black background - the model of this unused 1980s New Wave jacket is referred to as ""Dugal"" on the cuff tag. The pattern is consistent with the era's fashion trend of combining traditional menswear patterns with modern elements.
