Saville’s artwork for Joy Division and New Order was cut into patches, panels and woven labels and set onto oversized tailoring, parkas and denim, a meeting of two bodies of work that had shaped each other for decades. The boxy black trucker, model 181-723, became one of the defining pieces of that collection and remains among the most sought-after Raf Simons garments of the New York years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis jacket carries the New Order side of that conversation. The back panel reproduces Saville’s 1983 sleeve for Power, Corruption \u0026amp; Lies, built around Henri Fantin-Latour’s still life of roses; an RS patch sits on the chest, and a column of woven labels with track titles runs down the front and along the sleeve. Snap buttons, two chest flap pockets and a dropped, very wide body complete the shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTagged XL, it is the largest cut of the model and the least often seen. It measures 70 cm across the shoulder and 95 cm pit to pit, so it falls as a true oversized coat-jacket even on a tall frame, the sleeves stacking at the wrist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Saville denim has become a reference point for the meeting of fashion and music graphics, and the jackets now circulate mostly in small and medium sizes. An XL in honest, faded condition is the version for someone who wants the full intended volume and plans to wear it rather than keep it folded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raf Simons, with artwork by Peter Saville\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeason:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spring-summer 2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel \/ ref:\u003c\/strong\u003e 181-723, Denim Jacket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cotton denim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black, with full-colour rose panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in:\u003c\/strong\u003e Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTagged size:\u003c\/strong\u003e XL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shoulder 70 cm · Chest (pit to pit) 95 cm · Sleeve 68 cm · Length 91 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jacket only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-owned with general fading to the black denim, giving a soft charcoal cast.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA mark on the left cuff.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRose panel, RS patch and woven labels present.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSnaps and seams in working order.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition grade \u003cstrong\u003eB\u003c\/strong\u003e on the Japanese scale; see \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/japanese-condition-ranks-explained\"\u003eJapanese condition ranks, explained\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthenticity \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe labels, materials, stitching, hardware and construction are examined together and documented in Japan before dispatch; anything that cannot be confirmed is stated plainly in the description.
