Courreges did these amazing little faux leather jackets in the 60s and then the company re-issued them in the early 80s. The re-issued ones were done in a variety of pastels and colors not done originally so its very easy between the color and the label so sort out which is which. I love that they did this because it also gives these later ones a voice of their own. This one is the most coveted baby pink version and despite its time apart from the first issue, it is still strikingly similar in cut and design. The house's signature white snaps close the front and its cut denim jacket style. A great iconic piece!
