Resurrection is excited to offer a vintage Rick Owens black crushed velvet wrap top, defined by the designer’s signature manipulation of dark, tactile fabrics and sculptural draping. The luxurious crushed velvet catches the light across the surface, creating subtle variations in texture and depth throughout the garment.
The top features a softly structured shawl-like neckline that crosses diagonally over the chest to create a deep V-shaped opening. Short, wide sleeves extend from the shoulders with an understated architectural shape, while the wrap construction gathers naturally through the waist before opening into a softly flared, asymmetrical hem. A long self-fabric tie extends from the waist and can be wrapped around the body and secured at the back, creating an adjustable silhouette. The back falls into a clean, fluid shape with a softly gathered neckline and defined waist.
The wrap construction and emphasis on elongated draping are particularly characteristic of Rick Owens’ approach to clothing, where seemingly simple garments are transformed through proportion, layering, and movement. Owens has continued to explore wrap-front silhouettes and fluid velvet constructions throughout his collections; the designer’s own current work includes velvet wrap tops tied with a belt at the back and shaped through draping and waist pleating.
An exceptional Archive piece, this top captures the dark, sensual minimalism that has become central to the Rick Owens vocabulary. The crushed velvet, enveloping neckline, sculptural sleeves, and dramatic trailing tie make this a striking example of the designer’s ability to turn a classic wrap silhouette into something distinctly modern. Carefully Curated by Resurrection as part of our luxury vintage collection.
