Pocketed Button Up Sleeveless Denim Jacket | Light Blue / XS 100100685801807

Overview

A sleeveless, button-front jacket with a clean denim look and practical pockets — designed to function as a lightweight layering piece that elevates casual outfits. The fabric is a soft, drapey cellulose-based weave with a small synthetic boost for durability and easier care. The silhouette is structured yet relaxed, making it equally useful as a transitional outer layer or as a finish to summer looks.

Why you’ll want it

• Versatile: works as a top layer over tees, blouses, dresses or thin sweaters.
• Practical: button closure and pockets add function without bulk.
• Comfort-forward: softer hand and better drape than rigid cotton denim.
• Easy to style: pairs with everything from jeans to skirts for a contemporary, effortless look.

Fabric & Materials — what they are and why they matter

This jacket is made from a high-viscose (rayon/viscose) fabric with a small polyester content. In practical terms:

Rayon (viscose)

Rayon is a semi-synthetic fiber produced from cellulose (wood pulp). It gives the fabric a soft, smooth feel and excellent drape, so the garment moves nicely and feels lightweight on the body. Rayon takes dye well, producing vivid color and a refined surface that mimics natural fibers.

Polyester (small percentage)

The synthetic component improves durability, reduces wrinkling and helps the piece hold its shape. It also reduces the tendency of pure rayon to weaken when wet and minimizes excessive shrinkage or distortion in everyday wear.

Fabric Advantages — Pros and Cons

Pros

• Soft, smooth hand and attractive drape — more comfortable than rigid denim.
• Lightweight and breathable for warm-weather layering.
• Holds color well and has a refined finish suitable for casual and slightly dressier looks.
• Polyester blend improves resilience against wear and reduces wrinkling.

Cons

• Rayon is more delicate than cotton denim — it can wrinkle and lose shape if improperly cared for.
• Limited mechanical stretch — if you expect a lot of give, choose sizing with extra room.
• May require more careful washing (cold water, gentle cycle or handwash) to avoid shrinkage or color transfer.
• Less abrasion-resistant than traditional cotton denim — heavy abrasion can cause pilling or thinning over long-term wear.

How to measure the garment and yourself (step-by-step)

To find the best fit, measure both your body and an existing jacket you like, then compare those numbers with the product measurements on this page.

Measuring your body

1. Bust/Chest: Wrap a soft tape measure around the fullest part of your chest, under the arms and across your shoulder blades. Breathe normally; don’t compress the body.
2. Shoulder width: Measure across the back from the outer edge of one shoulder bone to the other (this is most useful when comparing shoulder seam positions).
3. Upper torso length: From the base of the neck (where the shoulder meets the neck) down the center front to where you’d like the jacket hem to sit.

Measuring a comparable jacket (preferred method)

1. Lay the jacket flat on a table.
2. Across chest: Measure from armpit seam to armpit seam and double that number for the full circumference.
3. Shoulder seam to seam: Measure straight across the back from one shoulder seam to the other.
4. Length: Measure from the center back at the base of the collar down to the hem (or from shoulder point to hem if you prefer front length).

Helpful conversions: multiply inches by 2.54 to get centimeters. When comparing, allow for ease: 1–2 inches (2.5–5 cm) extra for a fitted feel, 3–6 inches (7.5–15 cm) for layering over tops or sweaters.

Fit notes

• The fabric has very little mechanical stretch, so choose a size that accommodates your bust measurement with the amount of ease you want (see measurement guidance above).
• If you plan to layer thick sweaters underneath, pick the larger size or add 3–4 inches of ease to your chest measurement.
• For a sleeker, closer-to-body look, select a size with 1–2 inches of positive ease.
• The sleeveless cut makes arm mobility generous, but shoulder and chest measurements determine comfort across the torso.

Model reference (example)

For visual reference, product images often show a model wearing a size that provides a relaxed silhouette. Example: a model around 5'8" (≈173 cm) wearing a medium typically demonstrates how the jacket falls at mid-hip and how it layers over a tee. Use model shots as a styling guide, then choose size based on your measurements and the tips above.

Color information & how to combine it

Denim-inspired pieces commonly come in indigo, mid-blue, black or stone washes. Each wash gives a slightly different mood:

• Light or mid indigo: Casual and summery — pair with white tees, striped tops, floral dresses, chinos or light-wash denim for a tonal, layered look.
• Dark indigo / black: Slightly more polished — wear over a button-down, with dark jeans or tailored trousers and ankle boots for elevated-casual outfits.
• Stone / washed-out: Great for vintage or boho styling — pair with soft neutrals, linen, suede boots and layered jewelry.

Accessorize with belts (wear over a dress and belt at the waist for definition), scarves, or statement earrings. Because the piece is sleeveless, it works particularly well with short- or long-sleeved layers underneath.

Style & occasions

This sleeveless jacket sits at the intersection of utility and contemporary casual. Use it to:

• Polish weekend looks — tee + jeans + sneakers.
• Add edge to office-casual outfits — blouse + tailored pants + loafers.
• Finish off dresses and skirts for transitional weather.
• Create layered outfits for travel or concerts where a full jacket feels too warm.

Seasonal guidance

• Spring: Ideal as a lightweight outer layer over tees and thin knits.
• Summer: Perfect for cooler evenings and AC environments when you want just a light extra layer.
• Fall: Layer over long sleeves or thin sweaters — add a coat over the top in colder climates.
• Winter: Use as an inner styling layer under heavier coats rather than a primary source of warmth.

Care tips & simple upkeep

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle or handwash to protect the rayon fibers and reduce shrinkage.
• Turn the jacket inside out before washing to preserve color and surface finish.
• Use mild detergent and avoid bleach or harsh stain removers that can weaken fibers.
• Prefer hang- or flat-drying. If using a dryer, use low heat and remove promptly to avoid over-drying and shrinkage.
• Light steaming or low-heat ironing on the reverse side smooths wrinkles; avoid high heat.

Care guide — keep it looking great longer

1. Wash less often: Spot clean small marks with a damp cloth and mild soap to reduce overall washing frequency.
2. First wash precaution: Wash separately or with like colors to catch any excess dye.
3. Gentle handling: Use a laundry bag for machine washes and skip heavy agitation.
4. Reshape while damp: Gently pull the seams and body back into shape after washing to prevent distortion.
5. Fasten buttons before washing: This prevents snagging and keeps the front aligned.
6. Repair early: Reinforce loose buttons and mend small seam issues to avoid bigger repairs later.
7. Storage: Hang on a wide, supportive hanger or fold neatly to avoid shoulder pinch; keep away from direct sunlight to reduce fading.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this true cotton denim?

No — the piece has a denim-like appearance but is made primarily from viscose (rayon) with a small polyester component. Expect a softer, more drapey hand than rigid cotton denim.

Will it shrink when washed?

Rayon can shrink if exposed to hot water or high dryer heat. Wash cold, gentle cycle, and air-dry or tumble-dry low and remove promptly to minimize shrinkage.

Does the fabric stretch?

The construction has minimal inherent stretch. If you need extra room for layering, choose a size with additional ease.

Can I wear it over a sweater?

Yes — but if the sweater is thick, select the next size up to maintain comfortable arm and chest movement.

How do I remove wrinkles?

Use a handheld steamer or iron on low heat on the garment’s reverse side. Steam from a short distance and reshape immediately.

Style tips — outfit ideas

• Casual weekend: White tee, high-rise jeans, white sneakers; roll cuffs and leave jacket unbuttoned for a relaxed feel.
• Office casual: Lightweight blouse, tapered trousers, loafers; button the jacket and add a slim belt to keep the look neat.
• Summer evening: Slip dress or sundress underneath, sandals, layered necklaces — the jacket adds structure without overheating.
• Edgy night out: Black tank, faux-leather leggings, ankle boots, bold earrings.
• Festival/boho: Graphic tee, midi skirt, stacked bangles and cowboy boots — wear the jacket open for layering interest.
• Layered warmth: Thin turtleneck underneath with a long coat over the top for cold-weather layering that still shows off the jacket’s shape.
