SIZE & FIT NOTES
Tagged size 42 IT. Best suited for approximately Women S to M, depending on desired fit. The cut is visibly relaxed, with a vintage outerwear silhouette, shoulder pads, roomy sleeves, and a slightly oversized body shape. Please compare the measurements carefully with a similar jacket that fits well.

DESIGN DETAILS
This jacket features a glossy iridescent green shell that shifts under light, giving the piece a strong archive luxury sportswear presence. It has a pointed collar, attached hood, front button closure, flap chest pocket, lower flap pockets, structured shoulder pads, and elasticated waist detail. The sleeves have a distinctive puffed / balloon-like construction with gathered cuffs, adding volume and character.

WHY IT STANDS OUT
Older Herno Donna outerwear pieces like this have a very different feel from many modern lightweight jackets. The silhouette is more distinctive, the fabric has stronger visual presence, and the construction feels closer to classic Italian technical luxury outerwear rather than mass-market sportswear. The shoulder pads, oversized sleeve volume, hidden hooded structure, and iridescent finish make it especially collectible and difficult to find in this condition today.

ARCHIVE / ERA ANALYSIS
Based on the Herno Donna label style, fabric finish, construction, and silhouette, this appears to be an older production model, likely from the late 1980s to 1990s era. Older models from this period often carry a stronger long-lasting construction feel, with more character, more hand-finished design energy, and a silhouette that is rarely seen in everyday circulation today.

MATERIAL ANALYSIS
Label indicates:

Outer Shell: 100% Polyester
Lining: 100% Acetate
The outer shell has a lightweight shiny technical woven finish with a dark green iridescent effect. The acetate lining gives the inside a smooth, classic luxury jacket feel.

CONSTRUCTION DETAILS
The jacket is lightweight but visually structured. It includes shoulder pads, paneled stitching, horizontal body seams, gathered sleeve cuffs, buttoned flap pockets, and a hooded collar construction. The sleeves are one of the strongest details, with a rounded volume that gives the jacket a rare vintage designer silhouette.

CONDITION
Overall top condition for its production era. No major damage noticed. As with most older archive pieces, minimal signs of age or storage may be present, but nothing concerning. The jacket presents very well and remains fully wearable.

HOW TO STYLE
This piece works especially well with black trousers, straight-leg denim, minimal sneakers, loafers, or ankle boots. It can be styled as a rare vintage Italian outerwear statement piece, a lightweight travel jacket, or a collector-style luxury sportswear layer. The iridescent finish gives it enough visual strength to stand alone without heavy styling.

CLEANING / GARMENT CARE
Care label indicates Dry Clean Only. Professional cleaning is recommended to preserve the fabric finish, lining, and vintage construction.
