The lining is finished with a subtle woven "EL" jacquard monogram throughout, a refined detail typical of Escada's better outerwear from this period. In good vintage condition — please note small holes (likely moth damage) are present on the back shoulder, as shown in photos.Pairs beautifully with tailored wide-leg trousers and loafers for a polished 1990's-inspired look, or with straight-leg denim and a white tee for an elevated casual outfit.Escada was founded in Munich in 1976 by Margaretha and Wolfgang Ley.
