There’s a lovely sense of 1930s glamour to this full-length Betty Jackson coat, softened by a bohemian feel. The black leather has an intricate floral pattern formed from tiny punched details, creating a subtle texture across the body and sleeves. It’s the sort of detail that becomes even more beautiful up close.
Made from merino lambskin shearling, it has a wonderfully soft wool interior, with the fleece exposed at the generous collar, front edges and turned-back cuffs. Decorative hook-and-eye fastenings sit low on the front, around hip level, allowing the neckline to fall into a long, elegant shape.
I love a winter coat that feels this special while being properly warm. I’d wear it over a fine knit and jeans during the day, or an evening dress when the temperature drops. With its sweeping length and thoughtful detailing, this is a piece to love and wear for years.
