Olive Herringbone,
We have taken inspiration here from many sources to bring you a 1930s inspired blazer style jacket that will complete a plethora of outfits as part of our new 'Country Lady' separates collection. With some stunning vintage features - this jacket, made here in Yorkshire will fit with '40s styles too.
If you're a fan of good tailoring and enjoy a sophisticated yet feminine style, you will love this stunning 1930s inspired jacket. We have taken inspiration from photos, old patterns and catalogues from the mid to late 1930s - but this jacket will take you through to the 40s too.
Jacket definately has features seen on many 'country' or 'active' styles so popular in the 1930s where outdoor pursuits were becoming de rigeur. Note the 'action back' inverted pleat which we saw on many styles and added into this for both functionality and ease of fit. This inverted pleat we echoed in the patch pocket styles on the front.
Jacket is quite tailored to fit nicely on the waist to give a slimming and elegant silhouette - two button fastening. Notch lapel and width of lapel reflects the styles of the time.Two piece sleeve is a particular favourite of the designer and gives a lovely feel and fit/
This exquisite jacket goes beautifully with the new 1930s Front Pleat skirt, Plus fours, whirlaway skirt and waistcoat in the same fabric.
Jacket is made from a wool blend and is fully lined in viscose satin.

Dry clean only
We recommend choosing your size as per your normal size - the main area of fit is the waist.
For more information on fit and sizing please visit our size guide. The measurements refer to 'your' body not the garment itself. Please choose the size that most reflects your measurements.
The jacket is very well made and gives a nice nipped in shape. It has the feel of a riding jacket. The fabric feels smooth and is lovely soft shade of brown that would go well with many other colours like blush pink or miss green. I liked that it has pockets even though they are fairly small (you couldn't fit a purse or phone in them for example). I did find the fit was very snug though especially in the arms and across the bust. I have l fairly narrow shoulders so you may want to size up if you want a roomier fit or to wear layers underneath.
The fabric looks so beautiful up close - I could stare at it for hours! The jacket itself feels robust and well-made, definitely a quality piece! My only complaint is that the pleat in the back won't lie flat all of the time (it sort of 'unfolds' which is a bit unflattering)... Aside from that this jacket is everything I'ver ever wanted - I can't wait for the autumn weather to arrive so that I'll be able to wear it more often. I'd love another trouser option other than the plus fours to go with it.
