DELACROIX | Quilted Jacket with Daisy Elise

You have decided once and for all that yellow does not suit you!

Imagine, however, a deep, matte mustard yellow, softened by large white daisies. Stop imagining: this is not a bright yellow; it is an end-of-season yellow, and it behaves like a neutral.

• A warm mustard
  The shade leans towards ochre rather than lemon. It warms both light and dark skin tones, where a bright yellow would have hardened the features.
• Generous daisies
  The flowers are large, designed with wide white petals and a golden center. The pattern is cheerful without being childish, because its scale is that of a home print and not of a small-patterned fabric.
• Wave quilting
  The topstitching creates regular waves that give texture to the fabric and retain heat. The jacket keeps you warm while remaining soft to the touch.
• Golden buttons
  A row of small light buttons fastens the front up to the high collar. When closed, the jacket almost becomes a safari jacket; when open, it frames an ecru top.
• To be worn with black
  Black pants, raw jeans, navy skirt: the mustard pairs effortlessly. It is the only color in the outfit, and it suffices.

Yellow did not suit you because it was too light or too bright. This one is neither — and it’s often the jacket you end up wearing twice a week without even realizing it.
