Inspired by the iconic works of Fred Williams, this handwoven raw silk jacket brings to life the untamed beauty of Australia’s Red Landscape. Williams’ art is celebrated for its abstract yet deeply evocative interpretations of the vast, iron-rich terrain, where layers of deep reds, ochres, and sunburnt earth tell the story of an ancient, enduring land.
This weave is a masterpiece in its own right, meticulously crafted to capture the depth, texture, and movement of the rugged outback. The interplay of earthy red silks with golden and rust undertones mimics the way light dances over desert sands, rocky escarpments, and windswept plains.
A MASTERPIECE OF TEXTURE & COLOUR

Deep, Layered Earth Tones – Reds, ochres, rust, and sandstone hues mirror the outback’s striking colour palette.

HOW TO WEAR IT
Dress It Up – Pair with charcoal or deep brown trousers, a burnt-orange or crisp ivory shirt, and dark leather boots for a polished yet powerful look.

The Lemon linen is a great shirt. I was searching for a vibrant “Statement shirt” for an event on our vacation to Ibiza, and I found it at Joe Bananas, where I found many other things I liked as well. The quality of merchandise is outstanding, the designs are unique, and customer service is exceptional. I’m very pleased with my lemon and my experience, my first at Joe Bananas, but certainly not the last.
Needed a new jacket for a late invitation-no worries… Got my Black Marble after some size adjustments, just in time and with a very nice fit and looks (and that all the way to Sweden).
Nat our most excellent Sales rep absolutely sold me on this shirt and I wore it once and clocked 15 compliments in a 15 min walk to the restaurant. This shirt will get you noticed ...
Whenever I wear one of my Joe Bananas jackets, I never fail to get a compliment. The latest was at the Addison and a night to remember. Thank you Even.
Normally I do not enjoy large prints on shirts but after seeing the striking color contrast of purple, white, blue, and dashes of deep burgundy I was captivated. The water color type design is eye catching yet subdued at the same time.
As always, JoeB manages to blend the right style with the right amount of cool. The shirt looks and feels terrific. I have worn it with shorts, and underneath a jacket at a casual party…lots of compliments on all occasions!
I recently purchased this black leather belt and I’m really impressed with the quality—it feels sturdy and well-made. The leather looks sleek and premium. It is comfortable, stylish, and versatile enough for both casual and formal outfits. This is my second belt from JB. Highly recommended!
