Vintage Sequinned Bomber Jacket by Candlelight – Made in India
This is a vintage sequinned jacket by Candlelight, produced by Jansons International and made in India. The jacket features a classic bomber-style silhouette with a ribbed knit collar, cuffs, and hem, and a full front zipper closure.
The exterior is constructed from 100% silk fabric densely covered with sequins, arranged in bold colour-blocked panels of teal green, cobalt blue, burgundy, and plum. Decorative trim details accent the panel seams at the front, adding texture and visual structure. The sleeves are softly gathered, creating a relaxed, slightly blouson shape typical of late 1980s to early 1990s statement jackets.
The interior is fully lined in black polyester. Although sometimes casually referred to as a “windbreaker” due to the zip-front and ribbed finish, this piece is intended as a fashion jacket rather than functional outerwear.
