[~90's] Old ZILLI Cashmere Silk Zip Up Blouson Size.54

This is a ``cashmere silk zip-up blouson'' made by ZILLI, estimated to be from the 1990s.

Special items are now in stock.

ZILLI is a prestigious men's luxury fashion house founded in Lyon, France in 1965.

The origin of this is Teofilo Zilli, an Italian tailor who moved to Lyon from Rive-Dulcano in northern Italy.
Alain Schimel, who was born into a Lyon clothing family, fell in love with the workshop of this man who has an extraordinary talent for tailoring leather.

In 1970, Schimmel invested in this workshop, and ZILLI began to take off as a brand.

What sets Gilly apart from others is that he views leather as ``tailoring,'' rather than ``leather = decoration.''

The essence lies in the ``inner work'' that has been carefully thought out, from the silk lining to the slippery feel the moment you put it on, and the way it retains body heat.

We were among the first to commercialize peccary leather jackets in 1973 and crocodile leather jackets in 1982, pioneering the unexplored realm of high-quality ready-to-wear exotic leather.

Furthermore, he advocated the concept of ``luxury sports chic,'' and established a style of clothing that allowed him to move, but with materials and processes that were unconventional and extravagant.

In 1996, the brand expanded to include suits, shirts, knitwear, jeans, and shoes, creating a worldview in which the entire wardrobe could be unified with Jilly's temperature.

Also noteworthy is the French-Italian manufacturing system, which is centered around the atelier in Dardi near Lyon, and works with Italian workshops in Bergamo and Pescara.

In 2010, we were certified by the French government as an Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (EPV/Living Cultural Heritage Company), proving our value as a technology at the national level.

Persuasive power that you can understand just by touching it.
Gilly is a maison that delivers luxury not as a symbol but as an experience.

Introducing a cashmere silk blouson that stands out for its use of the finest materials from the ultra-luxury men's maison ``ZILLI'' from Lyon, France.

Well, this has arrived. I'll be honest with you.

We have proposed many products so far, but there are actually very few of them that you can intuitively say, ``Wow, this is on a different level'' the moment you pick it up.

This item was truly one of those rare pieces.

An exquisite product made from the highest quality and all natural materials: ``Cashmere x Silk x Leather''.

Just by looking at this material composition, you can clearly understand what the Gilly Maison values.

We create each garment using only the finest materials produced by nature, without relying on any chemical fibers.
It's not just a luxury, it's Jilly's answer to the question, ``What is authenticity?''

In order to maximize the quality of the materials, it has a minimalist appearance that eliminates all unnecessary details.
This item was created for those who are not influenced by trends and prefers authenticity, and it can be said that this item truly embodies Jilly's brand philosophy.

The shell material that makes up most of the body is made from an extremely luxurious blend of 50% cashmere and 50% silk.

By combining the softness and heat retention properties of cashmere with the smooth luster and elegant drape of silk, we create a look with depth that cannot be achieved with a single material.

A moist texture that is transmitted to your fingertips the moment you touch it.
This is good again.

At first glance, it looks luxurious, but it's not unpleasant, and it feels like it has the quiet sex appeal and elegance of an adult.
It's not often that you come across a material that truly matches the term "quiet luxury."

And the presence of leather placed throughout gives this blouson a definitive "class".
The leather shirring on the cuffs and hem is a luxurious design that is unique to Jilly and sets it apart from regular rib knitting.

The shirred leather creates a perfect fit, while also acting as a solid accent, and the material contrast with the smooth cashmere and silk body is truly stunning.

The leather strap with button tabs on the cuffs is a subtle detail that makes you wonder, ``This is what you're going to do.''
Furthermore, the leather piping that runs throughout the body beautifully highlights the switching lines around the yoke and armholes, creating a three-dimensional architectural feel within the simple design.

The lining is amazing 100% silk.

It is accented with a baroque all-over patterned lining that seems to betray the quiet and luxurious impression of the shell.

Painted in gold and turquoise on a white background, the capitals, medallions, spiral columns, and jewelery motifs are reminiscent of ancient Rome.
The moment you slip the sleeves through, you will be breathless at how smooth this silk is.

A world of jet-black minimalism on the outside and a gorgeous baroque world on the inside.
This duality is the true essence of Jilly, a ``secret luxury'' known only to the wearer.

A vertical welt pocket is placed at the hem.
It has a practical design that can also be used as a hand warmer.

The front has a zip-up style with a zip fastener.
The zip slider features an original zip with a glittering golden "ZILLI" engraving, and the pride of the Maison resides in even this simple metal fitting.

The words "MADE IN FRANCE" are stamped with gold foil on the back of the collar.
It quietly but surely claims that it is made in France.

The color is a single color "dark navy".

The deep navy, which is almost black, has a truly deep color that takes on a slight bluish tinge depending on the lighting.

Jilly's aesthetic sense is also visible in the choice of dark navy rather than true black.

This color is slightly softer than black, yet has enough depth to ensure an elegant look in any situation, regardless of your skin tone.

Coupled with the delicate luster of cashmere and silk, this color changes its appearance depending on the angle and amount of light, giving it a depth and intelligence that is more than just a dark color.

To be honest, I think it's the jacket that makes the person wearing it happiest, more than how it looks from the outside.
This piece teaches us that the act of wearing good clothes can be the best reward for yourself.

I want to experience the quality of the material. What is good quality clothing?
This is a brand that we recommend to those who want to experience the answer to that question, and this one is our product.

The size notation is "54"
I think it corresponds to "XL ~ XXL" in Japanese size.

Even if you look at the actual size, it will feel like a large size, so even people with large bodies can wear it without any problems.

This item is in mint condition with no noticeable dirt or scratches.

It is in very good condition for a Jilly of this age, with everything down to the silk lining remaining in good condition.

How much would it cost to make it with this material composition now?
"Cashmere x Silk" blend body, all leather shirred cuffs and waist, 100% silk patterned lining, sewn in our own atelier in France.

To be honest, it is expected that the cost will be higher than you can even imagine.
Actually, I wonder how many workshops that can reproduce this quality remain in modern times.

Jilly products, which do not have a directly managed store in Japan, are extremely rare to come across in the country.
Moreover, this item, which is made in France and has a supreme material composition of cashmere x silk body and silk lining, is not something you can find even if you are looking for it.

This is a rare item that rarely arrives at our shop, so if you are looking for one, don't miss this opportunity.
