Galah
Inspired by one of Australia’s most iconic and charming birds, the Galah, this handwoven raw silk jacket captures the essence of the bird’s playful yet striking nature. Known for its bright pink and grey plumage, the Galah is a symbol of vibrant energy, and this jacket brings that same bold spirit into fashion with a modern twist.
The jacket’s iridescent pink silk mirrors the Galah's striking feathers, radiating a soft glow that shifts in the light, while the grey accents provide balance and depth. The feather-like texture of the fabric adds an organic, natural quality to the piece, making it an eye-catching addition to any wardrobe. Wearing this jacket is a statement of confidence, joy, and individuality—no wonder it’s inspired by a bird that is both unique and undeniably Australian.
Raw Silk Jackets
Authentically Australian, Naturally Inspired and Hand Crafted for the Absolute Individualist.
We are world famous for our Handwoven Raw Silk Jackets, inspired by the magnificent colours and textures that surround us. From the Black Opal to iconic landmarks such as Uluru, the beauty of Australia is woven into every fabric, each with a story to tell. No two textiles are ever the same, just like our clients. That’s what makes Joe Bananas so unique.
The silk is procured, hand spun, hand dyed and woven by hand in-house at Joe Bananas. On average it takes anywhere between 200-300 days of hand weaving on the loom to create a single tapestry, producing a limited yield of 25-35 yards, which in turn allows for an incredibly limited run (approx. seven to eight) to be tailored from each individual weave.
