Gaëlle is a mid-length jacket with a slightly flared cut. It's buttoned at the front and has four pockets: two patch pockets, one welt pocket and one inside pocket. It also includes a classic collar and cuffs, with three pleats at the bottom sleeves.
This unlined jacket has a removable belt that emphasises the waist and is assembled with folded seams and topstitching. Gaëlle can be worn as a mini-dress by extending the length of the bust.
We recommend denim, moleskine and cotton gabardine, linen, wool and cashmere. You can also use leather, milleraie velvet or quilted fabric, and even mix and match different types of fabric.
Our Gaëlle jackets were made with a wool twill, a textured wool and a midnight blue denim.
