The Luxe Puffer
Cut with the volume of a puffer and in the style of a varsity, these jackets appear in less technical sporting fabrics and often contain embellishments or a subtle sheen that flatters at all times of day. Can’t find your Saint Laurent blouse? Throw on a simple tee and the luxe puffer paired with a high waisted skirt or relaxed trousers and you’re ready for both brunch and late dinner. The volume in the shoulders and altered collar shapes deviate this piece away from being a mere-jacket.
The Statement
There’s a fine line between an overcoat and a jacket and at the best of times these lines unavoidably merge. However, the right evening jacket can make quite the statement; opt for finely-cut lace spirals in a exotic hue that transports your look from clichéd red-carpet to Parisian cool. Opt for light- designs that allow for breathability and utilitarian details such as concealed pockets and always avoid double lining – especially during warmer evenings.
The Accessorising
Accessorising with your jacket is both a matter of its texture and hue, but we’ve found the best remedy to accessory conundrums is mineral tones. These can be anything from the raw-grey of a Nathalie Trad clutch to the white pearl tones of L’afshar’s handheld offerings. Remember to keep it clean and fun.
