The perfecto that rewrites the rules of vintage leather.

This isn’t just another biker jacket—it’s a statement piece that blends the rebellious spirit of the classic perfecto with a modern, feminine twist. The DAHLIA SHEEP VEG SHRUNKEN FIG ZZ from Rose Garden is crafted from premium sheep leather, tanned using a traditional vegetable process that ensures both durability and a rich, natural finish. The deep violet hue—dubbed "shrunken fig ZZ"—breaks away from the usual black, offering a bold yet sophisticated alternative that evolves beautifully with wear. The slimfit cut, a nod to the original biker silhouettes of the 1950s, is tailored to flatter without sacrificing the jacket’s iconic edge. Every detail, from the off-centre metal zip to the decorative black buttons on the notched collar, is designed to echo the heritage of the perfecto while adding a contemporary touch.

A jacket built for movement and style.

The sheep leather used here is thin yet resilient, moulding to the body over time while retaining its shape. It’s lightweight enough for layering in transitional weather but substantial enough to stand alone as a focal point. The slimfit design, with its snug waist and tapered sleeves, ensures a sleek profile, while the epaulettes and belted hem—complete with a metal buckle—reinforce the biker aesthetic. Practicality isn’t overlooked either: the two zippered side pockets and left chest pocket offer secure storage without disrupting the jacket’s clean lines. Whether paired with slim-fit trousers or leather pant boots, this piece bridges the gap between vintage charm and modern versatility.

From the workshop to the wardrobe: a jacket with a story.
