Vintage St. John Santana Knit Sequin Statement Jacket Jewel Tones - size 12

Previously worn, in excellent condition. Size 12. Please see pictures for measurements.

This exceptional vintage St. John Collection jacket is a standout example of the brand’s most coveted era, crafted in the iconic Santana knit that made St. John synonymous with luxury American design. Santana knit pieces from this period are highly sought after by collectors and stylists alike.

This jacket features integrated sequin inlay throughout, a complex and labor-intensive technique in which sequins are worked directly into the knit rather than applied as surface embellishment.
The design showcases a bold geometric wave / chevron motif, accented with jewel-tone sequins in rich shades of purple, teal, emerald, and sapphire, balanced by metallic gold striping.
This piece dates to the late 1980s–early 1990s, widely regarded as St. John’s golden era, when production emphasized craftsmanship, premium materials, and intricate design.
