BiBi Allover Clear Sequins Vintage Plaid Jacket

How to measure this jacket

Before measuring: lay the jacket flat on a smooth surface, fasten any closures (zipper/buttons) and smooth out wrinkles without stretching the fabric. Use a soft tape measure and record both flat measurements and circumferences (flat × 2 = circumference).

1. Chest (bust) — Measure 1" (2.5 cm) below the armhole seam across the front from side seam to side seam. Multiply by 2 to get the full chest circumference.
2. Shoulder width — Measure straight across from shoulder seam to shoulder seam at the top of the jacket.
3. Sleeve length — Two common methods (use one consistently): a) from shoulder seam to end of cuff; or b) from center back neck (CBN) to cuff following the shoulder and arm curve. Note which method you use when listing the measurement.
4. Back length — Measure from the center back neck (base of collar) straight down to the hem.
5. Hem width — Measure across the bottom edge seam‑to‑seam and multiply by 2 for circumference.
6. Cuff (sleeve opening) — Lay cuff flat and measure across; multiply by 2 for circumference.
7. Armhole (optional) — Measure the armhole seam length or measure flat underarm width and multiply by 2 for armhole circumference if you need sleeve-room information.

Conversion: 1 in = 2.54 cm. Use the same measuring points across all sizes for consistency.

Materials & construction

(Check the garment label for the exact composition.) Typical materials for this style include:

• Shell: polyester woven or mesh base with all‑over clear (transparent) acrylic sequins sewn on.
• Lining: polyester or acetate satin for a smooth feel against skin and to protect the sequin backing.
• Interfacing/structure: lightweight polyester or cotton‑blend interfacing in collars or shoulders where needed.
• Trims: metal or coated metal buttons/zippers; polyester or rayon thread used to sew sequins and seams.

Notes: clear sequins are sparkly but delicate — they can be heat‑sensitive and may scratch or snag with rough contact.

Model & fit

Model reference (for visual fit): model is 5'9" (175 cm) and is pictured wearing a size S. Typical body measurements for that reference are approximately bust 32" (81 cm), waist 24" (61 cm), hips 35" (89 cm).

Fit description: vintage‑inspired, slightly boxy/overshirt silhouette. Choose your usual size for a relaxed look. If you prefer a closer fit, consider sizing down; if you want room to layer bulky knits, consider sizing up.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Always check the care label first. If the label recommends dry clean only, prefer professional cleaning and advise the cleaner about sequins.
• Spot clean small stains immediately with a soft cloth, cold water and mild detergent. Blot—do not rub—so you do not loosen sequins or damage lining.
• Hand wash (if permitted): turn garment inside out, gently submerge in cold water with a mild detergent, lightly agitate for a short time, rinse thoroughly. Do not wring—press water out between towels and lay flat to dry.
• Machine wash (only if care label allows): turn inside out, place in a zippered mesh bag, use delicate/hand‑wash cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Wash alone or with other delicates—no heavy items.
• Do not tumble dry. Lay flat or hang on a padded hanger to dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources to avoid melting or warping sequins.
• Do not iron directly on sequins. If needed, steam from the inside at a safe distance or use a low‑heat iron with a press cloth on the reverse side and minimal pressure. Test a hidden area first.
• Storage: hang on a wide padded hanger or fold with tissue paper to avoid crushing sequins; keep in a breathable garment bag rather than sealed plastic.
• Repairs: keep spare sequins and matching thread; resew loose sequins with small stitches. For quick fixes, clear nail polish can temporarily secure a loose sequin (test first).
• Avoid abrasion: prevent friction from heavy bags, rough surfaces, or jewelry that could catch sequins. Apply perfume and deodorant and let dry before dressing.

Style tips

• Casual day: wear over a white tee or slim knit and high‑waisted straight jeans with sneakers or ankle boots for an elevated everyday look.
• Smart casual / office: layer over a silk blouse or fine knit and tailored black trousers; keep accessories minimal to let the jacket be the statement piece.
• Evening: pair with a slip dress, slim satin skirt or tailored trousers and strappy heels; finish with a clutch and simple earrings.
• Balance the silhouette: because the jacket has a boxy/vintage cut, pair it with fitted bottoms (skinny jeans, pencil skirt, or tailored trousers) to keep proportions flattering.
• Textures & colors: clear sequins pick up surrounding colors—mix with matte textures like leather, denim or velvet to create contrast. Solids or tonal pieces from the plaid work best to avoid pattern clash.
• Layering: for colder months wear over a thin turtleneck or lightweight sweater; avoid very bulky knits that could distort the jacket’s shape.
• Accessories: keep jewelry streamlined—delicate chains, studs or a single statement ring—so the jacket remains the focal point.

Tip: always refer to the product tag or product page for the exact material breakdown and care instructions specific to this item.
