Parade show jacket made of jacquard

The jacquard parade show jacket is a men's jacket in parade uniform style, made up of dozens of pieces of jacquard in red, purple, pink, gold and silver. The jacket has a stand-up black collar, five rows of gold braiding with round buttons and gold fringed epaulettes on the shoulders. Men wear it during carnival, at a sixties party or for a performance as a pop star.

What fabric is this jacquard jacket made of and how do you wash it?

• The jacket is made of 100% polyester with a shiny jacquard design.
• Hand washing is required: do not bleach, do not tumble dry, do not iron and do not dry clean.
• You can choose from sizes S, M, L and XL, for men.
• The sleeves and back panels are made in different designs, with a black-and-gold damask panel and a bright pink stripe on the back.
• Black cuffs and black flap pockets with gold-colored trim complete the front.

The parade show jacket as a musician look

A parade jacket comes from the world of harmony and brass bands, where musicians in richly decorated uniform jackets led the way in the parade. Pop groups from the sixties picked up that look and turned it into a stage costume, complete with epaulettes and braiding. This patchwork model takes that idea further: each panel has a different design, so the jacket never looks the same twice up close. This makes it suitable for both a hippie or flower power theme and for a rock star on stage.

How to build a complete outfit around the parade jacket

Under the jacket you wear a white blouse or a shirt with a jabot, with black trousers and neat black shoes. A tall black hat and a walking stick make it a parade leader, while a black wig with a pageboy cut, a moustache and round sunglasses choose the sixties band side. Keep the rest of the outfit solid black, so that the colorful panels of the jacket determine the look.

Choose this jacquard parade show jacket and you will be in a jacket that no one overlooks during carnival or at a sixties party.
