This style caused a sensation when it appeared in the window of Harrods’ around 1885.
A full-fledged Victorian tribute to the female form, with a big collar and angular-cut lapels to frame your face. Lots of shaping seams to flatter your contours. That eyecatching inverted pleat at the hem in back.
I suspect that in denim, it will still cause a bit of a sensation today.
Victorian Denim Jacket (No. 3041). Authentic period shape and details, in the same fine cotton denim used for expensive jeans. Short, double-breasted cut. Lots of decorative topstitching. Dome-shaped, pewter-finish buttons (including two vestigial ones in back).
The limo is waiting to whisk you off to Café Royale, where you’ll redefine casual panache.
