This designer Doris de Pont jacket is cut from a silk with a metallic sheen, striped in silver, navy and burnt orange. The notched collar folds back in a solid red, the only break from the stripe running through the rest of the jacket. Three self covered buttons close the front, and two rounded pockets sit at the hip, each lined in the same red as the collar. The sleeves finish at three quarter length, and the jacket sits cropped at the waist, giving it a neat, boxy shape.

The cropped length and boxy shape sit just at the waist. The red collar offers a flash of colour, the three quarter sleeve pairs well layered over a long sleeve top, or worn on its own over a simple dress. The pockets are functional as well as decorative.
