Shiva Bolero

Layers are a personality trait, not just a weather strategy.

The Shiva Bolero from Banned Apparel knows exactly what it's doing. Named for the Hindu god of destruction and transformation, it's got the right energy for anyone who treats getting dressed as a ritual. The open silhouette works over band tees, corsets, mesh tops, whatever dark aesthetic you've built your wardrobe around. It's a bolero that actually understands the assignment, which is more than you can say for most.

The stretchy sleeves move with you and the whole thing scrunches down small enough to stuff in a bag when the Melbourne summer decides to stop being dramatic. Spring and summer essential for the gothic and alternative fashion crowd who refuse to sacrifice the fit for the forecast.

Stretchy knit fabric. Compact and packable. Available in X-Small and up, check sizing guide for fit.
