KAREN MILLENVelvet and Satin Mix Tailored Jacket

- Cropped double-breasted silhouette cut to sit just at the hip, with structured shoulders that hold their shape without stiffening the frame. - The contrast is the point - satin lapels, pocket trim and edge detailing play directly against the matte velvet body, creating a tonal texture mix that reads as considered rather than decorative. - A breast welt pocket finished in satin adds a tailoring detail that nods firmly to eveningwear tradition. - The cotton-elastane main fabric is breathable and soft against the skin, making it comfortable to wear through a full day or evening without sacrificing the sharp line of the cut. - Tailored fit - shaped through the waist and defined through the shoulders, it sculpts the silhouette while still allowing ease of movement. The cropped length is what gives this jacket its edge. Sitting above the hip rather than covering it, the cut draws the eye upward and works best with a high-waisted skirt or tailored trousers - the model pairs it with a matching velvet mini, which demonstrates exactly how well the two pieces work as a co-ord. The satin trim keeps it firmly in occasion territory; this is not a jacket that softens into casualwear. For a wedding, races or a formal evening, wear it over a sleek column dress or with wide-leg tailored trousers and a silk camisole beneath. The double-breasted fastening holds the front closed with just two buttons, keeping the front clean and unfussy. Minimal jewellery lets the textural contrast do the work - a simple earring is all that's needed. Dry clean separately to maintain the velvet's finish and the satin's sheen.
