Women's Satin Back Crepe Tailored Jacket

Cropped tailored cut that sits just below the waist, creating a sharp, defined silhouette without overwhelming the frame Double-breasted button fastening with satin-trimmed lapels - the contrast between the matte crepe body and the satin detailing is the jacket's defining detail Structured shoulders with a clean, angular line that holds its shape whether worn open or fastened Satin trim runs along the lapels, pocket welt and hem edge, giving the jacket a considered finish that reads as dressed up without relying on embellishment Tailored fit - shaped through the waist and cut to define the shoulders and chest, sitting neatly against the body with enough ease to move with confidence The satin back crepe has a quiet weight to it - substantial enough to hold the tailored structure, but not so stiff that it restricts movement. The jacket sits close to the body through the torso and finishes at a cropped length that makes it particularly well-suited to high-waisted trousers, as shown on the model here. Worn as a co-ord with a matching wide-leg trouser, it reads as a complete, considered occasion look. For a wedding or formal dinner, pair with a silk camisole underneath and barely-there heeled sandals. The satin lapel detail does the decorative work, so the rest of the outfit can stay equally pared back. It also works over a column dress for graduation or races - the cropped hem skims the waist and lets the dress beneath take shape underneath without competition. | Karen Millen Satin Back Crepe Tailored Jacket in Merlot | Size 6 Colour: red
