Raw Silk Jacket Inspiration

Hydrophis cyanocinctus, commonly called the annulated sea snake or the banded sea snake, is a species of venomous sea snake in the family Elapidae. Found in the Indian Ocean and the marine waters around Korea, Japan, Solomon Islands, South China Sea, as well as coastal regions of China and Persian Gulf. They inhabit shallow coastal waters and feed on various fish, eels and gobies.

Given that Joe can often be found exploring the underwater worlds of this earth, it makes sense that this little striped bandit made its way into the collection. The 'Banded Sea Snake' Raw Silk Jacket is a playful, interlocking weave of black and white silk. A classic colour combination, this jacket can very easily be styled for both formal and casual occasions.
