Valentino Garavani Floral Detail Bomber Jacket

Like many of menswear's premier staples, the bomber jacket originated from humble, utilitarian origins. The sleek nylon fabric and cropped silhouette of the Ma-1 flight jacket, for instance, were developed due to the cramped space and frigid temperatures of jet airflights. This rendition from Valentino plays on the militaria association of the style with a contrasting tonal floral embroidery, lending a contemporary edge to the classic style.
