DELACROIX | Quilted Jacket Wildflower Manon

Those mornings when it’s too chilly for just a blouse and far too warm for a coat!

Imagine a jacket that you grab without thinking as you walk out the door, that keeps you warm without ever weighing you down, and that transforms black pants into an outfit. Stop imagining: the Manon is made exactly for that time of day.

• The just-right warmth
  The quilting is fine and even, designed to retain warmth without adding bulk. You stay covered in the early morning and don’t overheat at noon. This is the very definition of a successful mid-season jacket.
• A painted garden
  Daisies, poppies, and cornflowers spread across an ecru background like a watercolor. The print is rich, but the light background calms it: it catches the eye without ever shouting.
• A straight cut
  The line falls straight from the shoulder, without darts or a belt to cinch the waist. It follows the silhouette instead of emphasizing it, and can be worn open or closed.
• The piping that structures
  A dark trim highlights the edges, collar, and pockets. This discreet detail prevents a floral jacket from tipping into costume territory and gives it a homey look.
• Everything goes with it
  Black, navy, ecru, denim: the light background of the print coordinates with what you already wear. No new outfit needs to be built around it.

The real question is not whether you will like it on the first day, but how many times you will reach for it afterward. A jacket that solves the problem of a chilly morning always ends up living on the back of a chair, ready for the next day.
