This vintage black wool set from the 1980s is the work of Franco-Tunisian couturier Azzedine Alaïa, made in France, and embodies the architectural precision and understated elegance that defined the designer’s legacy.
The jacket features a sculpted, tailored silhouette with a button closure, refined collar, and clean lines that highlight the waist without excess - a quintessential example of Alaïa’s approach, who famously viewed clothing as a second skin.
The matching skirt sits perfectly at the waist. Its minimalist cut, with a subtle front slit, balances the structured jacket.
