Vintage Chinoiserie Contrast Jacket — Women
by Freya
Rooted in the art of Chinoiserie — the centuries-old European fascination with Eastern aesthetics — this contrast jacket is a quietly commanding piece. Woven in a metallic-thread cotton and linen blend, its surface shifts subtly with the light, carrying the texture of something considered and rare. Worn open over tailored trousers or belted over a slip dress, it speaks without effort.

How to Choose Your Size
This jacket is a one-size, relaxed unstructured style — it is designed to drape, not to fit tightly. The cut is generous and forgiving across the shoulders and bust.
⚠ Important — Asian Sizing: This garment is made to Asian fit standards, which run 1–2 sizes smaller than Western sizing. Always size up if you are between sizes or on the larger end of a size.
