Light Mauve Double Breasted Jacket
Light Mauve Double Breasted Jacket
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this jacket work for the office, or is it strictly an evening piece?
It works for both. The double-breasted cut and notched lapel collar give it enough structure for a workday, and the mauve colour reads equally well at dinner. The jacket is tagged for both 9am workwear and 9pm dinnerware occasions, so you can take it straight from a meeting to an evening out without changing.
The back and sides are elasticated. What does that actually mean for how it fits?
The elasticated back and sides let the jacket move with you rather than holding a fixed shape. You get the polished front silhouette of a double-breasted jacket without the stiffness of structured tailoring. It's a comfort fit, so it sits relaxed on the body rather than close to the chest.
What sizes are available, and what's the length?
The jacket comes in five sizes: XS, S, M, L, and XL. The length falls at 22 inches. The model in the product images wears a size S, which gives you a useful reference point if you're deciding between two sizes.
Will this jacket crease if I pack it in a bag or wear it through a long day?
The fabric is 100% polyester with a crease-free property, so it holds its shape through travel and extended wear. You won't need to steam or iron it before heading out.
How do I wash it?
Machine wash. The 100% polyester fabric handles a standard machine cycle, so there's no need for hand-washing or dry cleaning.
Is the mauve colour exactly what I see on screen?
Photography lighting, both natural and artificial, can affect how the colour appears on screen. The actual piece may look slightly different from the images. If you're matching it to a specific outfit, that's worth keeping in mind.
