DELACROIX | Quilted Jacket with Floral Tapestry Amélie

Are you looking for a jacket for the day, then another for the evening — and you really only want to wear one!

Imagine a single piece that accompanies you to the Saturday morning market and the evening dinner without changing style. Stop imagining: the delicacy of the Amélie pattern allows for both.

• A delicate pattern
  Small roses and ivory flowers are tightly drawn on an almond green background. Up close, you can see each flower; from two metres away, the whole reads as a textured colour.
• The tapestry effect
  The finish evokes an antique brocade, giving the jacket a perceived value far superior to the simplicity of its shape. It is this contrast that makes all the difference.
• Soft and warm
  The quilting is fine, and the fabric drapes without stiffness. The jacket folds, rests on an arm, and is picked up again without retaining stubborn creases.
• Collar open or closed
  The high collar buttons up to block the wind or opens into a soft lapel. Two styles for one jacket.
• Pockets and piping
  Two lower pockets, a dark piping on all edges: the finishes are those of a well-crafted piece, not a throwaway jacket.

A wardrobe doesn’t lighten by buying less, but by choosing pieces that serve dual purposes. This one serves two — and that’s why it returns to your shoulders much more often than the others.
