Description
Line & Proportion
Inspired by the serene power of glaciers, this jacket captures the stillness before motion. Its hue — Glacier Veil — is drawn from the soft light that dances across Iceland’s Vatnajökull ice. A color between mist and sky, both tranquil and luminous. The cropped silhouette is crafted with architectural precision, tracing lines that define grace through structure. Every seam speaks of restraint — a quiet luxury born from clarity and control. It is not loud, yet unforgettable; not fragile, yet infinitely refine
Cultural dialogues around this piece
This cropped lambskin jacket sits inside our study of glacial light — the stillness before motion. Its pale tone is drawn from the soft blue that hangs over ice fields at first light, a colour that feels both distant and intimate.
In the SELVANE universe, it belongs to crossings and in-between spaces: airport corridors, glass-walled offices, city streets after rain — moments where you are seen in passing, yet still want your outline to feel deliberate and composed.
Materials & Care
Materials
Made entirely from 100% Spanish lambskin, each piece is a study in rarity and precision. Every hide, no larger than two to three A4 sheets, is selected for its purity and grain. The surface carries a subtle, oil-waxed sheen — a shifting glow that mirrors the light of glacial ice. Supple yet resilient, it moves like water, flowing with every gesture of the wearer.
Over time
The leather deepens into a patina that tells a personal story — one of calm confidence and timeless poise.
Fit & Wear
Fit notes
- Intended fit: a clean, close outline with enough ease for a light knit or shirt underneath.
- Take your usual size for a precise, cropped silhouette.
- If you are between sizes and prefer thicker layers or a more relaxed line, size up.
Best for
Best for transitional temperatures and controlled interiors — cool mornings, air-conditioned offices, evening city air between roughly 10–20 °C (50–68 °F). Works over high-waisted denim, tailored trousers or slim dresses where you want the waistline to stay visible.
Not ideal for extended time in deep winter cold without an additional layer over it.
Sustainability
Sustainability
This jacket is part of SELVANE’s small-batch lambskin program: focused runs, long-term partner ateliers, and precise cutting to minimise waste. We make each style in limited quantities so that every piece has reason to exist — and space to be worn often, not occasionally.
The SELVANE standard
Every SELVANE piece is held to the same discipline:
- Drawn within our “architectural, never rigid” language — quiet lines that hold space without stiffening the body.
- Cut and finished in focused, small runs, so each silhouette can be refined and repeated rather than endlessly replaced.
- Described as it is: where it serves you best, and where it does not.
If a piece does not meet this, it does not carry the SELVANE name.
