Lapel Collar Long Sleeve Denim Jacket | Light / S 100100191837239

Lapel-collar cropped denim jacket — elevated casual with an edge

Clean tailoring meets a purposely undone finish: a blazer-style lapel is balanced by a raw, slightly distressed hem for a look that reads chic and modern. The shortened silhouette makes it ideal for pairing with high-rise bottoms and layered outfits; structured shoulders and long sleeves keep the jacket versatile for both relaxed and polished outfits. The fabric blend gives the piece body with a soft hand — it looks and wears like classic denim while feeling more comfortable than rigid, unyielding workwear denim.

Why this jacket is worth adding to your closet

• Translates easily from daytime errands to an evening out — dresses up or down with minimal effort.
• Raw hem provides a contemporary, fashion-forward detail that ages attractively with wear.
• Short, boxy cut enhances high-waist proportions and works well when layered over dresses, tees or lightweight knits.
• Fabric composition blends natural and man-made fibers for durability, color retention and a pleasant drape.

Fabric advantages — pros and cons

How to measure the jacket (so you compare it to what you already own)

Measure the garment flat on a smooth surface — don’t stretch it. Double the flat measurements when comparing to body circumference.

• Shoulder width: Measure from the outer edge of one shoulder seam to the other, straight across the back.
• Chest / bust: Lay jacket flat, measure across the front 1" below the armhole seam from side seam to side seam; multiply that number by two for full circumference.
• Waist: Measure across the narrowest part of the jacket body; multiply by two.
• Sleeve length: Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff along the outside of the sleeve.
• Back length: From the base of the collar (center back) straight down to the hem.
• Hem width: Measure across the hem and double for total circumference.

How to measure your body for a proper fit

• Bust/Chest: Measure around the fullest part while wearing a bra you typically use. Tape should be snug but not tight.
• Natural waist: Find the narrowest point above your hips and below your ribcage; keep the tape parallel to the floor.
• Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks.
• Sleeve length: With arm relaxed at your side, measure from the center back of the neck across the shoulder to the wrist bone for a full-arm length guide (or simply measure from shoulder seam to wrist on a jacket you already own).
• Torso length: Measure from the top of your shoulder (base of the neck) down to where you want the jacket to end.

Fit guidance: because this jacket has little to no mechanical stretch, allow 2–4 inches of ease for a fitted look and 4+ inches if you want to layer bulky sweaters underneath. If you’re between sizes and plan to use heavier layers, choose the larger size.

More about the materials (what to expect)

The cotton content gives the jacket its classic denim appearance and reliable abrasion resistance. The viscose component makes the fabric softer and improves drape so the jacket feels less boxy on the shoulders and back. Polyester increases resilience — seams keep their shape, dye holds better, and the jacket resists wrinkling. Together the result is a midweight denim with structure, comfortable hand, and everyday practicality. Note that viscose and cotton can react to heat and agitation differently than synthetic-only fabrics, so milder laundering preserves the original fit and finish.

Model & fit reference

Garment images are styled to show a cropped, waist-skimming silhouette. Photographs are intended as a visual reference—on shorter torsos the jacket will sit a little lower on the hip; on taller torsos it will appear more cropped. If you need fuller coverage or expect to layer thick knits underneath, size up. If the photos specify a model size on the product page, use those model measurements as an extra point of comparison.

Color and how to combine this jacket

Denim is remarkably versatile — choose contrasting washes to avoid a “too-matchy” double-denim look. For a classic approach, pair the jacket with:

• White T-shirt + high-rise jeans (choose a different wash for contrast) + sneakers for easy everyday wear.
• Slip dress + ankle boots for a night-out juxtaposition of soft and structured.
• Midi dress or skirt + loafers for a polished, feminine casual look.
• Black jeans + monochrome top + statement jewelry for a sleek, urban outfit.

Accessories: layer delicate chains over the lapel, add a bandana or silk scarf tied at the neck for a retro touch, or finish with a beanie and chunky boots for a street-style edge. Neutral and warm tones—white, beige, camel—or saturated shades—burgundy, olive, mustard—pair especially well with denim.

Style notes — what the design signals

• Lapel-style collar: gives a slightly tailored, blazer-adjacent look while keeping the casual spirit of denim.
• Raw hem: introduces texture and personality; it will soften and fray subtly over time, adding character.
• Cropped length: visually emphasizes the waist, works best with high-rise bottoms and layered silhouettes.
• No mechanical stretch: means shape is preserved but accurate sizing matters.

Seasons & occasion suitability

• Best for transitional seasons — spring and autumn — when you want lightweight outerwear that still offers coverage.
• Great for cool summer evenings and for layering under a coat in milder winter climates (or over a thicker knit if you size up).
• Suitable for casual office environments, weekend outings, city travel, and evening gatherings depending on styling.

Care tips & fit notes

• Initial color bleed is common with denim: wash separately the first few times or with like colors.
• Turn the jacket inside out for machine washing or hand washing to protect the surface and raw hem details.
• Avoid high-heat drying to prevent shrinkage and to preserve the raw hem edge; reshape while damp if needed.
• Because the fabric has little stretch, avoid ordering a size that’s too tight across the chest or shoulders—movement should feel comfortable.
• Expect the raw hem to soften and develop natural character with wear; remove loose threads rather than cutting aggressively to avoid changing the intended edge.

Care guide — keep it looking its best (step-by-step)

1. Before first wear: If the piece is richly dyed, launder alone or with like colors on cold to reduce transfer.
2. Washing: Turn inside out, use cold water and a gentle detergent. Hand wash or use a delicate machine cycle for the longest life.
3. Drying: Prefer air-drying on a hanger or flat to avoid heat damage. If you must use a dryer, use the lowest heat and remove while slightly damp to finish on a line.
4. Ironing/steaming: Steam to remove wrinkles; if ironing, press inside out on low–medium heat and avoid direct high heat on viscose-rich areas.
5. Spot care: Dab stains with a mild detergent solution and rinse; avoid harsh bleach or chlorine-based cleaners.
6. Raw hem care: Trim stray long threads; if fraying becomes excessive, secure the inside edge with a few small hand stitches or a fabric-safe fray-control product.
7. Storage: Hang on a shaped shoulder hanger for the neatest silhouette, or fold gently to avoid hanger marks; store away from direct sunlight to protect color.

Style tips — quick outfit ideas

• Weekend coffee run: graphic tee, high-rise mom jeans, white sneakers, minimal jewelry.
• Office-casual: slim trousers, neutral blouse, loafers; drape the jacket over shoulders for instant polish.
• Evening out: slip dress, layered chains, heeled boots — the jacket adds edge and warmth.
• Layering for chill: thin turtle neck, oversized scarf, and the jacket over top — balance proportions with fitted bottoms.
• Festival-ready: cropped top, high-waist shorts, ankle boots, and statement belt — raw hem amplifies the casual vibe.

FAQ

Does this jacket stretch with wear?

The fabric blend gives a comfortable hand but contains no engineered stretch—expect minimal give as the fibers relax slightly over time.

Will it shrink after washing?

All garments with natural fibers can experience minor shrinkage if exposed to heat. To minimize shrinkage, wash cold and air-dry or tumble very briefly on low heat.

Will the raw hem continue to fray?

Raw hems soften and develop character; small loose threads are normal—trim carefully or secure them if you prefer a neater edge.

How should I choose my size?

Compare your own measurements (bust, shoulder, sleeve and torso length) to the garment measurements on the product page. Allow extra room if you intend to layer sweaters underneath.

Is the jacket lined?

Construction varies by style — check the product images and detail section on the product page. If a lining is important to you, consult the product details or contact customer service for confirmation.

Any tips for keeping color vibrant?

Wash inside out, use cold water and a mild detergent, and avoid prolonged sun drying. Washing less frequently and spot cleaning when possible will also help keep the color deep.
