A waistcoat with biker lapels and no sleeves. Black faux leather, halter neck, hook closures down the front, over an emerald satin wrap skirt with a high front split. Thin black sandals. When the evening cools I add a long black coat. When it doesn't, I complain. Night out.

A sleeveless faux leather waistcoat with biker lapels and hook closures, over a draped emerald satin midi skirt with a high front split.

The vest borrows from a biker jacket and loses the sleeves: notched lapels, a diagonal zip that stops halfway, then three silver hook-and-eye closures down to a pointed hem. It is fitted through the body and open at the back, sleeveless right to the shoulder. The skirt is emerald satin, gathered and wrapped at the hip, falling to the calf with a front split that opens with every step.

This is a dinner outfit that survives the bar afterwards. Thin black sandals, nothing at the neck, hair down over the lapels. It belongs to warm evenings and early autumn: the skirt moves, the vest does not need a layer. If the night turns cold, a long black coat over the top and the satin still shows at the split.

Leather on top, satin below. Pick a side and she will pick the other.
