Excellent jacket.
"Great quality and just right for this time of year"
A refined layer that bridges heritage and modern tailoring, the Indore Knitted Nehru Jacket is our contemporary take on a classic menswear shape - reinterpreted for women. Crafted from 100% Indian-grown cotton and knitted in a full Milano stitch, this midweight (681g) jacket offers structure, breathability and lasting comfort.
The stand collar, also known as a Nehru or mandarin collar, adds a distinct, upright silhouette. A clean, curved placket and A-line cut create subtle shaping through the body, softening the structure without compromising on formality.
Featuring two patch pockets near the hem and a secure internal buttoned pocket, the Indore is practical as well as polished. Finished with six natural buttons and self-edged trims for a refined, tailored look.
A versatile alternative to a tailored jacket. Wear open over a t-shirt or buttoned over a knit for a clean, minimal finish.
Our women’s garments run true to size. We encourage UK customers to order two sizes as we offer free UK returns on orders of £100 or more.
