Using classic tailoring techniques and raw styling, Jurgi Persoons’ narrative reflects a powerful vision. Transforming traditional silhouettes into ‘trash couture’ by adding decorative elements. His designs are quite extreme and can be disturbing or arouse controversy, yet this is what makes them fascinating.
Here we have a striking piece consisting of a half knitted half wool cropped jacket; featuring a wide lapel, single button and belted waist. Most notably, a ‘Marten’ has been attached over the right shoulder, as seen across other pieces in the collection.
