{"product_id":"gerard-darel-jacket-dev30e074-brown","title":"Gerard Darel | Tweed Jacket - Sequin \u0026 Lurex Detail","description":"\u003cp\u003eCut in a straight, short silhouette, this jacket carries the unmistakable stamp of tweed reimagined for evening. The pattern is woven through with lurex and sequins, so the surface catches light with every turn — a quiet shimmer rather than an overt sparkle, built into the fabric itself rather than applied on top. In brown, the tone reads warm and grounded, a shade that anchors the metallic thread instead of fighting it.\n\nThe hand of the cloth is where the piece earns its keep. With a blend of polyester, wool and metallic fibre, it has body and a slight structure — enough to hold the straight shape without stiffness, and enough texture underfoot the fingers to feel genuinely woven rather than printed. Wool in the mix gives it a dry, tactile depth; the metallic content is what lets it flicker under artificial light without ever looking synthetic or cheap. It sits somewhere between daywear tweed and eveningwear brocade, which is exactly the point.\n\nConstruction follows classic French tailoring cues rather than anything experimental. A shirt collar frames the neckline with a crisp, structured edge, while set-in sleeves — finished long — keep the shoulder line clean and the arm free to move. The jacket closes with engraved golden buttons down the front, a detail that reads as jewellery as much as fastening, and repeats at the flap pockets set into the hip. Those pockets are functional, not decorative: enough depth for keys or a phone, finished with the same buttoned flap for symmetry.\n\nWorn buttoned, the jacket holds its straight shape close to the body without clinging — short enough to sit at the hip, so it pairs naturally with high-waisted trousers or a pencil skirt without adding bulk. Left open over a plain top, it becomes a layering piece, the shimmer doing the talking while the base stays simple. Movement is easy rather than fluid: the tweed keeps its shape as you walk, so the jacket reads as tailored structure in motion, not soft drape.\n\nThis is the kind of piece built to move between registers within the same wardrobe. Over dark denim and a fine knit, it turns a weekday into something considered. Over black trousers or a slip skirt, with the collar left open and the buttons done up, it becomes evening-ready without a change of outfit. The engraved buttons and metallic thread mean it rarely needs jewellery of its own — a watch or a single ring is enough. Store it on a structured hanger to keep the shoulder line, and let the tweed do the work of dressing up whatever sits underneath it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GERARD DAREL","offers":[{"title":"BROWN \/ 34","offer_id":41845351448709,"sku":"DEV30E074","price":3450.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false},{"title":"BROWN \/ 36","offer_id":41845351481477,"sku":"DEV30E074","price":3450.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true},{"title":"BROWN \/ 38","offer_id":41845351514245,"sku":"DEV30E074","price":3450.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true},{"title":"BROWN \/ 40","offer_id":41845351547013,"sku":"DEV30E074","price":3450.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0351\/5757\/3765\/files\/GERARD_DAREL-DEV30E074-BROWN-2.jpg?v=1788647226","url":"https:\/\/ruemadame.com\/products\/gerard-darel-jacket-dev30e074-brown","provider":"RUE MADAME | BOUTIQUE PARISIENNE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
