The sleeve is the point of this one. Velvet Vogue cut it wide and open like a cloak, so the fabric falls in a long line from the shoulder to the cuff and moves with the arm rather than following it. Above, a soft shawl collar rolls without a notch or a break, which keeps the neckline round and unstructured where a lapel would sharpen it.

The front fastens double breasted and sits flat and unfussy, with clean seams front and back and nothing else competing for attention. It is lined throughout and cut short to the hip, so it layers over a dress for an evening out or over knitwear and trousers on a cold morning without adding length you have to work around.

Three colourways: Coffee Brown, Apricot and Gray. Sizes run S to 2XL, cut loose and oversized through the body and the sleeve, so take your usual size for the volume the jacket is drawn for or size down for something closer. Our model is 5'9" and wears the size S. Machine wash cold, and do not dry clean this one. On a hanger with space either side, the cloak sleeve keeps its fall instead of creasing at the elbow.
