Christine Quilted Powder Rose Jacket

Pink – we've been led to believe it's no longer for you!

Imagine a deep pink, almost raspberry, softened by large antique roses and edged with grey trim. Stop imagining: this is exactly the pink of the Christine, and it's anything but girlish.

• A grown-up pink
  The raspberry base is intense yet warm, and the painted roses running through it give it nuances of white, green and grey. It's a colour that brightens the complexion rather than weighing it down.
• The grey trim
  Dark grey piping frames the edges, collar and cuffs. It frames the colour and gives it a crisp look, almost like a blazer.
• Light warmth
  The discreet padding keeps you warm without weighing heavily on the shoulders. You wear it from the crisp morning to the cool evening without ever taking it off from overheating.
• Stand-up collar with buttons
  When the jacket is buttoned to the top, it takes on the look of an officer's jacket. Open, it lets the collar fall softly over a light blouse.
• Simplicity around it
  With black trousers and an ecru top, the jacket does all the work. You don't need to decide anything else that morning.

Pink has never had an age — it just needed to be well cut and well finished. Once that's sorted, the Christine comes out of the wardrobe far more often than you'd ever have bet.
