Some pieces are simply art. This blouson is cut from Auralee’s Super 180’s wool melton — impossibly fine 14.5-micron yarn, densely woven, then felted and brushed until the surface is smooth, compact and softly lustrous. The cloth is double-faced: two layers woven as one, finished on both sides, so the jacket needs no lining. At every seam, a tailor separates the layers, folds them inward and stitches them closed by hand, hiding every raw edge. Inside looks as clean as outside. The cut is roomy and slightly boxy, with a classic collar, horn buttons and pockets hidden in the side seams. Nothing extra, just extraordinary cloth, handled with care. A chef's kiss.
