Description
Line & Proportion
A cropped, four‑pocket tweed jacket with a straight shoulder and clean round neck, cut to sit neatly at the high hip.

Cultural dialogues around this piece
This silhouette appears in our visual stories that look at crossings, pauses and the quiet distance between arrivals and departures.
It is part of our ongoing study of presence — of how a clear line can frame motion without hardening it.
How it feels
Textured, compact tweed with a dry, refined hand. Light on the body yet reassuringly structured, it holds its shape while remaining comfortable over a dress or fine knit.
Presence in motion
The round neck and straight shoulder keep the top line sharp, while the four pockets and tonal trim draw a subtle vertical rhythm through the front. Gold‑tone buttons catch light quietly rather than shout; the tweed’s mix of teal and muted tones gives depth without loud contrast. The jacket holds a clear outline whether worn open or fully buttoned.
Materials & Care
Materials
62% cotton, 9% wool, 8% polyimide, 6% viscose, 6% polyester, 3% silk, 2% acrylic, 2% other fibres, 2% metallic fibre.Cotton and wool provide softness and warmth; silk and viscose lend a smoother hand and richer colour; technical fibres and metallic yarns give structure, resilience and a discreet, woven‑in sheen.
Over time
With wear, the tweed will ease slightly at the seams and soften against the body while keeping its boxy line. Expect a gentle blooming of the surface rather than heavy pilling. Avoid rough surfaces and sharp jewellery, brush lightly after wear, and store on a padded hanger to preserve the texture and proportions season after season.
Fit & Wear
Fit notes
- Boxy, cropped silhouette with a generous collar.
- 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
Cold, bright winter days in the city—between home, office and late walks—when you want the ease of a puffer with a more composed, knitwear presence. Ideal for travel thanks to its warmth‑to‑weight balance.

This piece is part of our edited, small-batch production in lambskin and wool. We design it to be worn over many seasons, and we share clear care guidance so it can move with you for longer.
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.
