EMILIA | Heritage Tweed Jacket

You know the jacket you keep reaching for, the one that makes jeans look intentional and a plain top look finished. This is that jacket.

The Emilia is built on a tailored tweed body with a stand collar and a full button front, so it sits sharper than the boxy blazers most women end up with. Faux leather trim runs the collar, the cuffs and the pocket flaps, which is what gives it the finished, expensive-looking edge from across a room. It's shaped through the waist, so it holds a silhouette instead of hanging straight down.

What makes it work

• Tailored through the waist — shapes the body instead of hiding it
• Stand collar, button front — sharper line than a standard blazer
• Faux leather trim — collar, cuffs and pockets, for definition
• Layers without bulk — sits clean over a blouse or a fine knit
• Hip length, long sleeves — works with denim, trousers and skirts

Wear it open over a turtleneck when it turns cold, buttoned with straight-leg jeans and boots on the weekend, or over tailored trousers when you want to look put together without spending twenty minutes on it. It's the piece that carries you from a school run to lunch to a work meeting without a change of clothes.

Fit

Tailored fit, true to size. If you plan to layer over a thicker knit, size up one.
