ne colorway, a subtle blend of the browns and greens found in weathered copper, and three yarns each different from the other in fiber, structure and gauge, intertwine in a fabric in which color, light and texture continuously ebb and flow. Pure silk and superfine Peruvian alpaca lend a supple resilience to this jacket’s sweeping proportions that invites and encourages imaginative styling. A bit of fringe across the collar adds a final textural statement and offers the pure beauty of yarn in its simplest form.
