This megève jacket is made of raw silk tweed. This fabric takes its name from the River Tweed in Scotland. Originally woven from corded woollen threads, tweed shows a multitude of small flaws (‘slubs’) that are its hallmark. To achieve this revisited version, our Tuscan weaver used Indian silk threads. The peculiarity of this raw silk is precisely the irregularity of its material. The imperfections of the black and silver threads give its atypical, very chic personality to the surface of the fabric.
The Megève jacket is only a few seasons old, but you immediately adopted it for its impeccable cut and fit, and it is now part of the hollington wardrobe.
Many of you said you were won over by its high quality and the implemented know-how. This jacket is 100% Italian made: from the cutting of the pattern to the hand-finished details, including the assembly of the fabric pieces one by one.
It is a jacket with an officer collar, a stand-up collar to which a narrow band of fabric is added all around the neckline. Its cut is slightly fitted and has a slit at the back for added comfort. You who pay great attention to details, have you noticed that its buttons are made of natural material? They are made of horn or corozo, a vegetable ivory extracted from the endosperm of the palm fruit.
The big new thing is the three piped and zipped exterior pockets: practical for travel, cycling, life! You no longer need a bag, and your essentials are safe. No more misplacing your passport, cell phone or tickets... These zips on the front are also a trendy detail, with both their streetwear and architectural references. Inside, four zipped pockets and two pen pockets complete the practical and chic range.
Sober, refined, with hyper-contemporary details: the Megève jacket takes its name form the hyper select ski spot and does flatters you on a walk, a formal occasion or a smart aperitif on the terrace.
