Distressed Raw Hem Dropped Shoulder Denim Jacket | Light Blue / S 100100888221024

Overview

A modern take on the classic jean jacket: intentionally distressed details, a frayed hem and a relaxed, dropped-shoulder silhouette create an effortlessly cool layer that elevates everyday outfits. Designed to feel broken-in from the first wear, this lightweight jacket gives structure without stiffness and is ideal for quick layering over tees, dresses or lightweight knits.

Fabric — what to expect

The jacket is constructed from a regenerated-cellulose fiber typically sold as rayon/viscose. Unlike traditional cotton denim, this fabric has a softer hand and drapes more freely. Expect a smoother surface, a more fluid movement across the body and a lived-in vintage look that complements the distressed treatment and raw hem.

Important characteristics: breathable and comfortable against the skin, tends to show creases more readily than cotton, and requires a gentler laundering routine to preserve shape and finish.

Fabric Advantages — Pros & Cons

How to measure — get the right fit

To choose the best size, compare your body or a favorite jacket to the garment measurements you see on the product page. Follow these measuring steps for accuracy:

1. Bust / Chest: Wrap a tape measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape parallel to the floor. For garment flat measurements, measure across the jacket from armpit to armpit and double that number.
2. Shoulder Width: Measure from shoulder seam to shoulder seam across the back. For a dropped-shoulder piece, note that the seam will fall lower than the natural shoulder—expect a roomier upper sleeve.
3. Sleeve Length: For a conventional sleeve measure from the shoulder seam to the cuff. If you prefer total arm length, measure from the center back at the base of the neck, over the shoulder to the cuff.
4. Body Length: Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (near the neck) down to the hem to see where the jacket will fall on you.
5. Laying-flat method: Lay a similar jacket flat on a table and measure across or along the seams; this is often the most reliable way to compare to the listed garment measurements.

Sizing tip: decide how much extra space you want for layering—approximately 2–4 inches of ease will give a relaxed look over tees; 4–6 inches is better if you frequently layer thick sweaters. If you prefer a closer silhouette, choose a size with less ease or size down.

Model & fit notes

Images generally show the jacket with an intentionally relaxed, boxy fit: the dropped shoulders soften the upper silhouette and the body sits slightly cropped to the hip. The sleeves may appear shorter and wider because of this design. If you like a fitted look, consider selecting one size smaller than your usual; if you prefer roomy layers, stick with your regular size or size up.

Color & how to combine

The wash reads as a classic worn-in denim blue with subtle fading and distressing that give it a lived-in, versatile edge. That makes it a great neutral anchor for many outfits:

• Double-denim: pair with a lighter or darker wash for contrast—balance the look with a neutral tee or white shirt.
• Feminine mix: layer over floral midi dresses or slip dresses to add contrast between soft and rugged textures.
• Urban edge: combine with black denim, leather-look leggings and ankle boots for a modern streetwear vibe.
• Casual weekend: white tee, high-waisted jeans or chinos and clean sneakers for an easy everyday outfit.

Style & occasions

This jacket works from weekend errands to casual evenings. Its distressed details and raw hem give it a youthful, contemporary attitude—great for concerts, travel, coffee dates or layering on cooler summer nights. It pairs naturally with relaxed, minimal and slightly grungy aesthetics.

Seasonal suitability

Best for transitional weather: spring and fall when you need a lightweight layer. It also makes a great travel piece for cool evenings in summer and can be layered under heavier coats in winter when you need an intermediate layer.

Care tips & quick fit notes

• Wash gently and avoid high heat to prevent shrinkage and protect the distressed finishes.
• Turn the jacket inside out before washing to preserve color and reduce abrasion on the exterior.
• Expect the raw hem to soften and fray slightly over time—this is normal and part of the aesthetic. Trim any excessive loose threads carefully rather than ripping them.
• If you plan to layer thick sweaters, allow extra room in chest and sleeves when selecting size.

Care guide — to keep it looking its best

1. Spot-clean small stains promptly using a mild detergent and cool water; blot rather than rub.
2. When laundering, use a gentle cycle or hand-wash in cool water with a mild, color-safe detergent.
3. Wash with similar colors. For the first wash, consider washing separately to avoid any initial dye transfer.
4. Avoid strong bleach and harsh chemicals—use oxygen-based stain removers if needed.
5. Reshape while damp and hang to air-dry to preserve silhouette and prevent excess fraying at the raw hem. If you tumble dry, use the lowest heat and remove promptly.
6. If wrinkles appear, steam or press on a low temperature with a press cloth to protect the fabric and distressed details.
7. To limit ongoing fraying of the raw hem, apply a fabric fray sealant sparingly at the inside edge or have a tailor reinforce the hem if you prefer a more permanent finish.

Style tips

• Layer over a striped tee, cuff the sleeves and add white sneakers for an elevated casual look.
• Wear over a slip dress with ankle boots and a pendant necklace for a feminine-meets-edgy outfit.
• Pair with tailored trousers and loafers to contrast the jacket’s relaxed feel with polished elements.
• Try monochrome layering—dark top, dark denim bottoms and this jacket as the textured statement piece.
• Accessorize with a slim belt worn over the jacket at the waist to create shape when you want a more tailored silhouette.
