Navy satin and leather jacket with a pleated tulle skirt

A navy satin wrap jacket with black leather sleeves, a neoprene peplum and a pleated satin skirt under black tulle. Night, neon, rain on the street.

The jacket is navy satin with a wrap front and a structured, ruffled collar that stands off the shoulders, the sleeves in black leather with a panel of satin down the outer arm; it closes with a black strap at the waist. Below it a black neoprene peplum flares over the hips, and the skirt is navy satin in knife pleats, long, with panels of black tulle layered over the pleats at the front and sides so the blue reads through the black.

It is a night look for a city that stays lit: a lot of fabric, all of it moving, and no colour but navy and black. Shoes should be a flat black boot or a block heel, because the skirt touches the ground and the pavement is wet. Hair down, small hoops, no bag. Autumn and winter.

The street was loud. The skirt was louder.
