When the weather outside turns cold and you simply do not fancy reaching for an overcoat, it comes in handy to know which jacket to choose. Several of them are in fashion, yet each is suited to a slightly different occasion. Which one will win you over?
A jacket need not always end at the hips. Let yourself be warmed this winter by a long winter jacket in the colour of the night sky, made from a unique material by the Italian producer Thindown, which is an absolute novelty in the Czech Republic. The finest duck down, which provides high thermoregulating comfort even in very cold climates, is fixed directly into the fabric without any hard parts. Thanks to this, it stays in place, does not shift and does not work its way out. The woollen outer fabric is complemented by a functional membrane, which makes it additionally water-resistant. In other words, no more unwanted soakings on winter walks amid snow flurries.
A practical yet elegant jacket in unakite colour with a lightly slimmed Slim silhouette and a dominant stand-up collar that takes the place of a scarf. The outer material is a 100% wool fabric from the Italian producer Ing. Loro Piana & C. The fabric features a functional membrane, a warming synthetic filling and a lining made of a flexible material. An ideal combination for wearing even in inclement weather. With a stand-up collar jacket you can confidently crown a relaxed winter outfit for work or leisure time with friends.
How about a denim-look jacket lined with warming shearling? You will wear it far longer than a classic denim jacket, and moreover it looks considerably more elegant! A woollen jacket with a denim appearance pairs perfectly with a checked shirt and chino trousers. You should, however, bear in mind that precisely because of its denim look, combining it with jeans of the same shade is not entirely appropriate. But if you choose a markedly different tone, in this case, say, grey or black, a chic outfit is yours for the taking.
The sporty yet elegant bomber
The bomber is worn by both women and men, do not be alarmed in the slightest. And ladies should put their hand on their heart: it simply suits men more. It is a jacket gathered at the waist and cuffs with elastic, which supports the natural male silhouette and visually emphasises broad shoulders. It may come in any colour or pattern — black, dark blue or, say, olive. Indeed, these are the three colours most commonly seen on bomber jackets. Presumably because they fit splendidly into almost every gentleman's wardrobe. They are well suited to completing a more sporty outfit — to jeans and a longer T-shirt. You will find them in both lightweight and heavier versions, so that they are also capable of keeping you warm, and an insulated bomber will serve you wonderfully in the transition from winter to spring.
The bomber, however, is also earning its place within the current formal collection, where it stands in for a well-fitting jacket. This is in fact the first time that an informal piece has become part of a formal collection. In combination with a relaxed tapered trouser cut, it represents a luxurious formal ensemble for gentlemen seeking a sophisticated reinvigoration of the formal wardrobe. It is made of top-quality fabric from the Italian producer Cerruti, with cashmere and elastane added to the high wool content.
Fashion trends are kindly disposed and favour all manner of styles, so do make the most of it! Choose the piece that appeals to you most and fits perfectly into your wardrobe. Or reach straight for all four jackets — we trust that for each you will find a whole range of occasions on which to enjoy it to the full.
