RITA | Light patchwork jacket with pockets

I wore it over the same gray sweater I have had for years and someone asked if the sweater was new.

Patchwork usually means one of two things. Either it is loud enough to be the only thing anyone sees, or it is so muted you wonder why they bothered. Rita sits in between, which is why it works over the clothes you already own rather than replacing them.

The panels are cut in tones close to each other, so what you notice from across a room is texture rather than a pattern. The jacket is light enough to go over a sweater without adding weight at the shoulders, and the cut has enough ease that your arms move freely. There are working pockets at the front, which is more than most light jackets in this shape manage.

Why women our age keep coming back to it

• Pattern that does not shout. The patchwork tones sit close together, so it reads as interest rather than as a statement you have to live up to.
• Light enough to keep on. It layers over a sweater without the weight that makes you want to take a jacket off indoors.
• Real pockets. Deep enough for a phone and keys, which is the difference between decorative and useful.
• Greens as well as neutrals. Khaki, Black, Gray, Light Green and Dark Green, in S through 3XL.

How it fits

Rita comes in S through 3XL with an easy cut through the body. It is made as a layering piece, so the chest measurement in the chart already allows for a sweater underneath. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one. 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.
