One of Helmut Lang's most well known garmentsin a rare polyamide wool blend. This version retains a better structure and fit than the thinner cotton iterations while still offering layering versatility. It comes in a very hard to find size 44, which gives the wearer a sleeker profile, especially for thinner and smaller body types which usually get swallowed by padded bulletproof vests. Yet it still accommodates larger individuals perfectly, due to its adjustable width and shoulder straps.
Lang demonstrates his uncanny ability to re-contextualize garments never even conceived in the world of high fashion with his version of the bulletproof vest; an undeniably iconic and beautiful display of Lang's creativity and design proficiency.
