Striped Boyfriend Denim Shacket in Light Blue

A shacket is the answer to the half of the year that cannot decide what it is doing. Too warm for a coat, too cool for a shirt. This one splits the difference in striped light blue denim, cut boyfriend loose through the body with chest pockets on the front and a raw hem left deliberately unfinished at the bottom.

The cloth is 93% cotton with 4.5% polyester and 2.5% viscose, and the maker lists no stretch. That high cotton content is why it behaves like proper denim. It has weight, it holds a crease where you fold it, and it will soften across the shoulders over a season of wearing rather than staying stiff forever. The front is buttoned, there is seam detail through the panels, and the raw hem means the edge will fray a little with washing, which is the point of a raw hem rather than a fault in it.

The boyfriend cut is doing the heavy lifting. Bust runs from 41.7 inches at S to 49.6 inches at XL, so there is real room in here to layer, which is the whole reason to own one. Wear it open over a tee and jeans for the denim on denim look that never actually went away. Button it over a slip dress and let the shape contrast. Throw it on over a hoodie in autumn. Sleeve length sits around 20.3 to 20.7 inches, so if you push the sleeves up your forearm the proportion tends to look better anyway.
