This R&K Evening jacket from the late 1980s captures the precise moment when nightwear and power dressing collided: rich black velvet cut into a tailored silhouette, then drenched in shimmering florals that move like galaxies.

The pattern is both floral and cosmic, where glam rock and disco collide. The gold piping adds architectural definition to the neckline and front placket, while four black-and-gold statement buttons anchor the design with regal contrast.

Inside, the jacket is fully lined, with the unmistakable weight of 1980s craftsmanship — slightly structured shoulders, a cropped waist, and a drape that feels sculptural but soft. Pair it with high-waisted trousers, a column skirt, or even denim.
