NANCY | Light leopard print jacket

My daughter told me leopard was for younger women. She has since borrowed it twice.

Leopard goes wrong when it is loud, tight or shiny, and most of it is at least two of those. That is where the idea comes from that it belongs to someone else's age group. Nancy is none of the three, which is why it works over a plain blouse on a woman of sixty without announcing anything.

The fit is relaxed rather than close, so the print sits on fabric that hangs instead of stretching, and a print that stretches is what makes leopard look cheap. The jacket is light enough to wear in most seasons rather than only in winter. It is one print, one option, so the decision is only whether you want it.

Why women our age keep coming back to it

• The print sits on loose fabric. Nothing stretches across the body, which is the thing that makes leopard look cheap.
• It goes over plain clothes. A white blouse and dark trousers is the whole outfit, and this is the part that makes it one.
• Light enough for most of the year. Not a winter jacket, so it does not sit unused for eight months.
• Easy to move in. The relaxed cut means the arms are free, in sizes S through 2XL.

How it fits

Nancy has a relaxed fit and comes in S through 2XL. It is meant to hang open over a top, so measure against a jacket you already wear that way. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one, since a snug fit is exactly what this print does not want. You have thirty days to try it at home.

30 days to change your mind

If it does not find its place in your closet, send it back within 30 days for a full refund. No restocking fee, no questions.
