The outer fabric has a shiny silk-like texture, while the inner is lined with synthetic black fabric. The jacket zips up the front with a gold metal zip. \n\nThe main body of the jacket is bright yellow and shimmery, and the sleeves are dark grey with a gold shimmer. At the neckline, wrists and bottom of the jacket there are elasticated bands of dark burgundy fabric with silver glitter stripes. There is white braided piping along each arm. On the back of the jacket, there is a large printed image of David Bowie reproduced in gold, burgundy and green, based on a photograph by Mick Rock. The image shows Bowie wearing a patterned leotard and leg and arm bangles, crouching and pointing one finger. There is a lightning bolt next to this. There is also a lightning bolt printed on the front left hand breast of the jacket. \n\nThere is a black fabric label sewn into the inner neckline, embroidered with white writing. There is also a label sewn into the inner left-hand hem of the jacket, with printed writing. There are three  cardboard tags attached to the zip with a plastic loop; two of these tags have printed information, and the third is a small sealed envelope containing a fabric swatch.
