From my own personal collection of long collected vintage pieces, I am finally ready to share this amazing blazer with the world! There were a lot of internal debates, but the slightly-larger-than-it-was waistline won (sad face). This Ungaro Parallele blazer is everything that was over the top amazing in the 80's! Ungaro's ability to build a power piece was incredible..the shoulder pads, the bold colors and color blocking, and the carefully cinched waist make you feel like a BOSS! Note that the arm holes are narrow.

~CONDITION:
Excellent vintage condition. There are no stains, fading, or rips. It came to me with a safety pin at one of the shoulder pads (I imagine it got loose, and pinning it is way easier than removing and resewing the lining), and the label could stand a couple of stitches to reattach it better. I did go ahead and have it dry cleaned and have maintained it with at home dry cleanings. Please keep in mind that this blazer is 40 years old or so and has lived a full life before it came to me-- I can only imagine the fun it had!!
As ever, I'm happy to answer any questions you may have, just PM me.
