SIMPSON DESERT SANDS – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket
A Legacy of the Outback. A Statement in Silk.
Inspired by the vast, untamed beauty of the Simpson Desert, this handwoven raw silk jacket captures the essence of Australia’s most iconic red-sand expanse. Known for its towering dunes and endless ochre plains, the Simpson Desert is a place where time stands still, sculpted by the wind and the elements. The Simpson Desert Sands Raw Silk Jacket embodies this rugged elegance, translating the natural warmth of the desert into a luxurious, wearable masterpiece.
The weave is a masterful blend of ochre reds and sunlit sand tones, mimicking the undulating textures of the dunes as they ripple under the golden light. Flecks of burnt orange and deep caramel add depth and richness, creating a striking yet versatile piece that effortlessly transitions across seasons and occasions.
THE ART OF THE WEAVE
- Handwoven Raw Silk – Lightweight, breathable, and richly textured.
- Ochre Red & Sand-Coloured Silk – Inspired by the shifting dunes of the Simpson Desert.
- Timeless & Distinctive – A bold yet sophisticated take on the classic tan jacket.
HOW TO WEAR IT
- Dress It Up – Pair with charcoal wool trousers, a crisp ivory or burnt sienna linen shirt, and polished tan leather boots for refined, desert-inspired sophistication.
- Dress It Down – Style with dark denim, a sand or rust-toned tee, and suede boots for effortless outback charm.
LIMITED HANDWOVEN EDITION
Like all Joe Bananas handwoven silk jackets, the Simpson Desert Sands is a rare, exclusive piece, taking 250-300 days to weave. With only a handful available, it is as unique and enduring as the desert itself.
A STATEMENT OF WARMTH, ADVENTURE & TIMELESS STYLE
This is more than a jacket—it’s a tribute to the untamed spirit of the Australian outback. Wear it boldly, knowing you carry the essence of Australia’s great red centre wherever you go.
