The Soft Jacket – a contemporary staple

Our completely unconstructed Soft jacket is a contemporary, slightly more casual interpretation of a tailored jacket. It wears more like a cardigan than a jacket and therefore also works best with soft, brushed materials – like jeans with wool & cashmere blends for example.

With our vision to fill the gap between casual and formal wear with a product that feels in tune with a modern, urban lifestyle.  

The BLUGIALLO soft jacket is a hybrid between the unconstructed jacket and knit cardigan. It makes sure you are effortlessly well dressed and is, more than anything, a complimentary product in your excising closet. When a jacket feels too formal, yet you still want to wear a second layer – the soft jacket will be your go-to piece.

The fit our Soft Jacket is a clean cut, straight drape. It is slightly different in its shape (compared to a regular formal jacket or blazer) and has an extended shoulder to create that casual and comfortable feeling.

Whether you are in the mood to wear denim, corduroy or dress pants, the soft jacket completes your look perfectly, and most likely, you’ll find that it will become an easy go-to for your everyday needs. 

Unlike our jackets, the soft jacket is completely unconstructed, without canvas in the front part, and always unlined. It only has a small layer of canvas on top of the shoulders to create a soft shoulder line. The make combined with the 3 roll 2 button closure gives a perfect transeasonal and casual piece, great for layering. Wear it with a shirt, a knitted rollneck or a classic long sleeve polo depending on context. For colder winter days, it is a great indoor jacket and thanks to its softness, it feels like wearing a relaxed cardigan. 

We like to say that confidence begins with comfort and few garments are as comfortable as our soft jacket. The soft, unconstructed, make combined with well selected (often structured) fabrics creates a jacket that you want to wear every day of the week. If you are searching for the feeling of contemporary luxury, we would recommend the wool and cashmere blend. For most people, cashmere do not need any further introduction, but you cannot mention too many times how comfortable it is to wear. The material blend, combined with a structured and matte surface, creates a versatile garment for many occasions. 

As with all of our tailoring, we offer a wide range of possibilities and unique fabrics, depending on the needs and preferences of our clients. However, the Soft jacket tends to work (and wear) really well with structured fabrics and/or slightly heavier fabrics, such as 300gr/m and up for fall & winter tailoring

Cashmere, baby camel fabrics, flannels and wool & cashmere blends are all great examples of luxurious and soft fabrics with a lot of structure and weight in order to create a fantastic soft jacket.
