Half of this blazer is behaving. Cropped charcoal wool, with one front panel in crinkled silver leather. Under it, a black leather skirt, high at the waist, wrapped, with a ruffle down one side. It is sharp before coffee, which is more than I am. Dinner first. Somewhere louder after.

A cropped charcoal wool blazer with one panel in silver leather, over a high-waisted black leather skirt with a draped ruffle.

A cropped blazer in charcoal wool with a single interruption: the left front, from shoulder to hem, is cut from crinkled silver leather. The shoulders are padded and sharp, the sleeves are pushed up into folds, and the hem is cut high and curved at each side. It is worn closed, as a top.

The skirt is black leather, high-waisted and narrow, wrapped across the front with a seam that sweeps from one hip to the other and ends in a ruffle falling down the left side. Matte wool, mirror leather, soft leather: three surfaces and one colour family. It suits autumn and spring evenings, dinner first and somewhere louder after.

Half a blazer in silver. The other half is for meetings.
