Helmut Lang 1998 Olive Military Jacket

For Autumn/Winter 1998 Helmut Lang made the contemporary military uniform his central reference, reworking army detailing into his own spare cuts rather than reproducing surplus pieces. This olive jacket belongs to that year of his output. 1998 also marked a turning point for the house: Lang launched helmutlang.com and bypassed the traditional runway calendar by presenting a collection online, a first in fashion.
