FAQs

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is crafted from a comfortable bengaline fabric, a blend of 76% Viscose, 21% Polyamide, and 3% Elastane.

Is this jacket suitable for winter?

This jacket is designed as a lightweight layering piece, making it most suitable for Spring and Summer weather. It may not provide sufficient warmth for colder winter temperatures.

How should I wash this jacket?

The jacket is machine washable. We recommend washing it on a gentle cycle with similar colors, using cold or warm water. Always check the care label for specific instructions.

Is the jacket true to size?

Yes, it is designed with a regular fit and is true to size. We recommend selecting your usual UK dress size for the best fit.

Can I wear this jacket with dresses?

Absolutely! The jacket's versatile style makes it an excellent layering option for printed dresses, adding a casual yet chic touch.

What is the length of the jacket?

The jacket has an approximate length of 59cm.

Are the pockets functional?

Yes, it features patch pockets which are functional for small, flat items, consistent with the classic jean jacket design.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels too snug or restrictive.

While designed for a regular, true-to-size fit, the bengaline fabric offers stretch. If between sizes, consider sizing up for more comfort. Ensure you've selected your standard UK dress size.

Fabric appears wrinkled after washing/drying.

Follow care instructions for machine washing on a gentle cycle and opt for air drying or a very low tumble dry. Light ironing on a low setting or steaming can easily remove wrinkles.

Color seems to fade over time.

To preserve the vibrant blue, wash with similar colors in cold water using a mild detergent. Avoid excessive sun exposure when drying.

The patch pockets don't hold much.

The patch pockets are primarily decorative and designed for very small, flat items, consistent with a classic jean jacket style. For larger essentials, a handbag is recommended.

Care Instructions

Proper care will help maintain the jacket's appearance and longevity.

  1. Machine Washable: Always refer to the care label inside the garment for specific temperature recommendations. Generally, wash on a cold or warm gentle cycle.
  2. Wash with Similar Colors: This helps prevent color bleeding and maintains the jacket's vibrant blue hue.
  3. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can damage the fabric blend.
  4. Drying:
  • Air Dry: Lay flat or hang to air dry to help maintain shape and prevent shrinkage.
  • Tumble Dry: If using a dryer, select a low heat setting. Remove promptly to minimize wrinkles.
  1. Ironing: If needed, iron on a low heat setting from the inside out. Use a pressing cloth if you are concerned about direct heat on the fabric blend.
  2. Storage: Store on a hanger in a cool, dry place to prevent creasing and maintain its silhouette.
