Why it's worth it
Oversized paisley embroidery hand-stitched onto velvet — the jacket is already the occasion.
The Edit
Mandarin-collared and frog-fastened, this cropped velvet jacket carries hand-embroidered paisley motifs scaled up to near-maximalist proportion — swirling across front panels, sleeves, and back in red, black, gold, and olive thread. The velvet base is soft and close-napped, giving the embroidery something to sink into rather than sit on top of. Fitted through the torso with clean seaming and no lining bulk, the silhouette stays graphic without the weight.
Insider Tip
The frog closures are structural — they hold the asymmetric cross-front flat without gaping, no pinning required.
