Hugh Hefner smoking jacket
The classic smoking jacket was made famous by the flamboyant American actor Hugh Hefner. He was the founder and scion of Playboy and a man with an incredibly unique sense of style and taste. His smoking jacket was no exception. Hefner’s smoking jacket, in red silk or burgundy Velvet, exemplified his unique style.
Hefner loved a smoking jacket made from silk damask and with a shawl collar. Hefner’s carefree attitude was reflected in the jacket. The actor was also known to be a sexy entrepreneur, bootstrapping his first print run of Playboy magazine and establishing private key Playboy Clubs. Although he was not shy about his sex-positive views and his smoking jacket was certainly a style statement.
Hugh Hefner’s smoking jacket is one his most well-known possessions. Made from scarlet silk damask fabric, the jacket features a shawl collar and tie belt closure. It’s currently on auction at Julien’s Auctions and is expected to fetch between $3,000 and $5,000. Additionally, the actor’s personal set of Playboy magazines is estimated to be worth $20,000-$40,000.

The Hugh Hefner smoking jacket, pajamas, and other items will be sold for $5,000. The auction’s proceeds will go to charity, including LGBTQ rights and legalization of medical cannabis.
Hugh Hefner helped bring the smoking jacket back into the public consciousness. It was his first time wearing it in 1950s when he founded Playboy magazine. Hefner has over 200 different smoking jackets. The smoking jacket has even come back into high fashion. Tom Ford and Louis Vuitton have both reintroduced the smoking jacket into their collections. A smoking jacket is a fashion statement.
