SARAH LEWIS SPECIAL OCCASION JACKETS

This is our final post from our new designer friend, Sarah Lewis, who makes the most beautiful coats and jackets, and this week we are showcasing special occasion jackets – and let it be said that Anne C fell in love with the black and gold Linton Tweeds jacket she is wearing.

Linton Tweeds is the favoured fabric of the House of Chanel and other prestigious high fashion labels. Woven at their factory in Carlisle, Linton Tweeds has been a favourite luxury fabric since the early 1900s, and is available for anyone to buy – but not until several seasons after the couture houses!

Anne is wearing “Jane”, in black and gold Linton Tweed wool/mixed fibre with a luxurious 100% satin acetate gold lining. This is a collarless, swing jacket with loose fitted sleeves and side pockets. The buttons are original art deco vintage glass. 

Anne H is wearing “Ciana”, a straight, collarless coat with fitted sleeves and four fringed patch pockets in wool and mixed fibres in an off-white colour with contrasting dark grey thread running through. It has a gold lining in 100% satin acetate.

Our final jacket, worn by Anne C is another “Jane” whose dominant colour is oatmeal/natural with bright threads and a silver thread running through. It has a pearl white lining in 100% satin acetate.

We hope you have enjoyed reading about Sarah and her designs, and trust you will join us in wishing her every success in her new business.  Please feel free to browse her website here – she is a lovely lady and has worked incredibly hard to produce her range and deserves to succeed, and we wish her well in the future.
