TULLY BANANA – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket
Vibrant Colours. Lush Textures. A Celebration of the Tropics.
The Tully Banana Raw Silk Jacket is a tribute to the vibrant banana plantations of North Queensland, particularly the town of Tully—known for both its highest rainfall in Australia and the famous Big Golden Gumboot.
Tully’s lush landscapes, drenched in tropical rain, create a breathtaking tapestry of vibrant greens, golden yellows, and earthy browns—a natural spectacle that has inspired the rich colours and intricate textures of this unique jacket. Just as the bananas ripen under the tropical sun and thrive in the region’s abundant rain, this jacket is an expression of nature’s exuberance and vitality.
The vivid golden yellow silk of the jacket mirrors the ripening bananas hanging on the trees, while deep greens echo the dense tropical foliage of Tully’s plantations. Woven with a striking texture, it celebrates the lush, abundant environment that has made Tully the heart of Australia's banana-growing industry.
