Practical was never on the list. A burgundy satin jacket with black side panels and two huge cocoon sleeves, over a matching satin mini skirt with an angled hem. Coats are not invited. Wear it to dinner in an old café, black pointed pumps.

A burgundy satin jacket with black panels and cocoon cape sleeves, over a matching mini skirt with an angled hem.

A fitted satin jacket in burgundy with black panels down the sides and a black notched lapel, closed with hidden hooks down the front. The sleeves are the event: two enormous cocoon shapes in burgundy and black that start at the shoulder and hang open to the hip, so the tattooed arms come through underneath. Below it, a matching burgundy satin mini skirt with an angled, overlapping hem.

Two-piece satin for an old café after dark: autumn or winter, a dinner that starts with a drink at the counter. Black pointed pump, no bag, or a small one in the hand. Everything else stays black, including the coat you leave at the door. Sleeves this size are not practical. That is exactly why I wear them indoors.
