After Drake’s · Autumn/Winter 2023

Blue Velvet Double-Breasted Tailored Jacket

Drake's double-breasted jacket is cut from a cotton velvet in navy with a petrol tint, and it belongs to a suit. It follows the house's closer tailored cut, which sits nearer the body than its Games tailoring. The jacket is unlined and has a soft natural shoulder, so the double-breasted form wears in a relaxed and unstructured way. It can be worn as a suit or on its own as an evening or cold-weather jacket.

Double Breasted Navy Camelhair Jacket

We kept the navy colour and the soft, plush surface by choosing a Tollegno camelhair in place of cotton velvet, since a pile cloth was not used here. We set the six-button double-breasted front, peak lapels, unlined soft half-canvassed make, mother of pearl buttons and four-button cuffs to match the original. Proper Cloth's options led us to jetted pockets in place of Drake's barchetta breast pocket and patch hip pockets with a ticket pocket, and we added side vents.

A plain-weave camelhair woven by Tollegno in Italy, weighing 385 g. It is a heavier cloth with a soft, fine and slightly silky hand, in a solid dark navy, and it is warm, which suits it to autumn and winter.
