How to measure — get the perfect fit

Measure a jacket you already own or take your body measurements using a soft tape measure. For consistency, lay garments flat on a hard surface and keep pockets empty before measuring.

Measure the garment (laid flat)

• Chest / Bust (pit-to-pit): Button the jacket. Measure straight across from one underarm seam to the other, then double that number for full circumference.
• Waist: Measure across the narrowest part of the jacket body and double to get circumference.
• Hips / Hem: Measure across the bottom hem and double for full circumference.
• Shoulder width: Measure from shoulder seam to shoulder seam across the back.
• Sleeve length (shoulder seam): Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the sleeve (cuff).
• Center back length: Measure from the base of the collar (center back neck) straight down to the hem.
• Cuff width: Measure across the sleeve opening laid flat; double for circumference if needed.

Measure your body

• Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape level and parallel to the floor.
• Waist: Measure around your natural waistline where you normally wear pants.
• Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips.
• Shoulder width: Measure across the back from shoulder bone to shoulder bone.
• Sleeve length: For jacket sleeve fit, measure from the center back of the neck, over the shoulder to the wrist (many brands report sleeve length this way).
• Height: Account for your height for jacket length preferences.

Tips: Compare garment measurements to your body measurements allowing about 4–6 cm (1.5–2.5 in) of ease for a tailored fit, more for an oversized look. Always measure a similar jacket you like and use that as your baseline.

Materials & construction

The Perfee Pocketed Houndstooth Long Sleeve Jacket is a classic houndstooth woven jacket built for structure and everyday wear. Typical materials and components include:

• Outer fabric (houndstooth): Commonly a woven blend (eg. polyester + viscose/rayon or polyester + wool). Some versions include a small percentage of elastane for slight stretch. Expect a medium-weight, structured hand that holds shape.
• Lining: Smooth polyester or viscose lining for easy layering and comfortable wear.
• Interfacing & shoulder shaping: Light interlining used in lapels and shoulders to retain structure.
• Trim & pockets: Functional front pockets with polyester pocket bags; buttons typically resin or metal.

What to expect: warm, durable, and low-wrinkle performance from polyester blends; better drape and breathability if viscose or wool is included. Exact fiber percentages and trim details vary by batch—please check the product tag for the precise composition.

Model information (photo reference)

Reference details used in product photography to help you judge fit:

• Model height: 175 cm (5'9")
• Model measurements: Bust 32" (81 cm) — Waist 24.5" (62 cm) — Hips 34.5" (88 cm)
• Wearing size: Small (S)
• Fit shown: Regular, slightly boxy silhouette—true to size. To wear bulkier layers underneath, consider sizing up; to achieve a closer fit, consider sizing down.

Use these as a guide and compare with your own measurements or a jacket that fits well.

Care guide — to keep it lovely longer

Always follow the garment care label first. Below are general recommendations for structured houndstooth jackets:

1. Dry clean when recommended: Many tailored jackets are labeled "Dry Clean Only" to protect interfacing and lining—follow that instruction for best results.
2. Spot clean for small marks: Blot gently with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Test in an inconspicuous area first.
3. Machine wash (only if label allows): Cold water, delicate cycle, jacket fastened and turned inside out, placed in a mesh bag. Use mild detergent and remove promptly after cycle.
4. Drying: Reshape while damp and hang on a sturdy, shaped hanger. Avoid tumble drying unless explicitly allowed on the care label.
5. Steaming & ironing: Steaming is preferred to remove wrinkles. If ironing is necessary, use a low setting with a pressing cloth to protect fibers and pattern.
6. Pilling & lint: Remove pills gently with a fabric shaver and use a lint roller for surface fibers.
7. Storage: Store on a wide hanger to maintain shoulder shape. Use breathable garment bags for long-term storage and natural repellents (cedar or lavender) to deter moths.
8. Minor repairs: Reinforce any loose buttons or stitching soon after noticing to prevent bigger damage.

Style tips

• Office & meetings: Pair with slim tailored trousers, a crisp blouse and loafers or heels for a polished look.
• Casual weekend: Throw over a white tee with high-rise jeans and sneakers; roll the sleeves for a relaxed feel.
• Layering: Try a fine-gauge turtleneck or thin knit underneath for extra warmth without added bulk.
• Dress it up: Wear over a slip dress or midi skirt and add heels and statement earrings.
• Accessories: A slim belt over the jacket creates an hourglass shape; add a silk scarf or lapel brooch for personality.
• Color play: Classic black-and-white houndstooth pairs well with bright accents (red, mustard, emerald) or monotone neutrals for a timeless look.
