Our expert's notes

Flash Gordon's (Sam J. Jones) jacket worn in Mike Hodges' sci-fi adventure Flash Gordon. Flash wore his distinctive jacket when he and Princess Aura (Ornella Muti) attempted their escape from the planet Mongo to the forest kingdom of Arboria.

The garment is entirely custom-made using red leather with a red polyester lining and features a wealth of beaded embellishments and gold-coloured piping. It has a zippered front with faux-gold metal buttons. The chest has an elaborate winged motif created with red and gold beads over a metallic gold-coloured material background. The cuffs, shoulders and epaulettes have a similar design, and whilst some beads have been lost since filming, it remains in very good condition. The word "double" is handwritten inside the collar in black ink. This could refer to use as a second jacket for actor, Jones, or that it was used by a stunt double.
