Measure your favourite garments, don't measure your body.
We have created many thousands of custom made pieces for our clients over the past few decades. Our experience has told us that the best way for us to get this right the first time is to take your garment measurements.
The measurements below refer to your jacket. Measure your favourite jacket and compare to find your best size. Alternatively, order custom made and send us your favourite jacket's measurements, we will make you a personalised fitted piece.
For those that are already our clients, we will have your custom sizing stored in our records. Select "Custom Tailored' with confidence and we will take care of the rest.
For those who are new to Joe Bananas, we will custom make the jacket of your choice. Once you purchase we will be in touch with instructions on how to measure yourself so that we can tailor your piece with a personalised fit.
Nature’s Rarest Treasure. Woven into Timeless Craft.
The Black Opal Stepweave Raw Silk Jacket is more than a piece of clothing—it’s a tribute to the unmatched brilliance of Australian Black Opals, where nature’s artistry meets masterful craftsmanship. These rare and mesmerizing gemstones, formed over millions of years beneath the surface of the Australian Outback, are revered for their deep, dark body tones and electrifying bursts of colour, shifting and shimmering with every movement.
This jacket captures that magic through a meticulous handwoven stepweave, designed to reflect the layered depth and complexity of the Black Opal itself. Vibrant hues flicker through the dark silk fabric, much like the play-of-colour seen in these legendary stones. Every thread tells a story of earth’s hidden treasures, brought to life by the artistry of Joe Bananas’ expert weavers.
To wear the Black Opal Stepweave Jacket is to carry a piece of Australia’s natural wonder and elegance, wrapped in a fabric that is as rare as the gemstone that inspired it.
HOW TO WEAR IT
Dress It Up – Pair it with a deep midnight or opal-blue shirt and tailored black trousers for a sleek, sophisticated look.
Dress It Down – Let the natural spectrum of colour take center stage with dark denim and a neutral tee for effortless refinement.
