Flashback Black Velvet Sequin-Trim Cropped Evening Jacket XL
Flashback Black Velvet Sequin-Trim Cropped Evening Jacket XL
A little drama, beautifully understated.
This striking black velvet bolero by Flashback combines plush texture with an ornate, jewel-toned finish. Cut in a relaxed, cropped silhouette, it features wide kimono-inspired sleeves, an open front, and richly embellished borders of metallic gold, copper, bronze, and silver-toned sequins.
Scattered gold-tone sequin accents catch the light across the velvet, while the softly draped shape brings effortless elegance to an otherwise simple look.
Equally compelling over a silk slip dress, tailored trousers, or worn casually with dark denim, this is the kind of statement layer that makes an outfit without overwhelming it.

Curator's Note
The beauty of this piece lies in the contrast: deep black velvet against the warm glimmer of metallic sequins. Its relaxed proportions and elaborate trim recall the decorative evening jackets of decades past, yet the silhouette feels entirely relevant today. Wear it with something unexpected—washed denim, a simple black column dress, or sharply tailored trousers—and let the texture do the talking.
