First it’s the thick mane of golden fringe that demands your attention. Next your eye is drawn to the thin strands of pure silk ribbon scoring deep, open weave V’s round and round before settling into orderly nubby rows above and below. Velvety silk and merino welts unite all the elements into one stunning tone-on-tone textural delight. This short, fitted jacket is glitzy enough to wear over your little black dress in the evening, yet seems every bit as comfortable paired with jeans on an afternoon walk in the woods.
