Dating to the 70's, this incredibly rare knit was created by Kansai Yamamoto, the Japanese designer best known for designing David Bowie's stage costumes throughout the Ziggy Stardust era. Completely handmade, it features an elephant motif depicted in red, purple & gold on a grey background and flared sleeves shaped to resemble elephant's ears. A highly collectible piece, this is a true relic from the glam rock era.
