Raw Silk Jacket Inspiration

The Ghost Gum is an evergreen tree that is native to Australia, with white to cream bark - thus its ghostly appearance against the Australian landscape. The Ghost Gum occurs in a wide range of environments from humid coastal regions to arid lands up to 1000 km inland.

The 'Ghost Gum' Raw Silk Jacket plays upon the statuesque tree trunks of the Ghost Gum with its varying vertical weave of natural and navy silk. The colourway of this jacket is perfectly paired with a crisp, white linen shirt and trousers, or a plain t-shirt and denim. A tremendous weave in the Joe Bananas collection.
