A boxy faux suede bomber with a sharp collar
This is a women's bomber-style jacket in a soft-looking faux suede finish. The photos show a brown version with a pointed, shirt-style lapel, structured tabs on the shoulders and a zipper that runs under a hidden placket. The sleeves are long and wide, the shoulders drop, and the hem gathers into a rounded, bubble-like shape.
We want to be upfront about the name. If you searched for a plus size oversized faux leather blazer jacket, this is a loose match, not an exact one. It is not a true blazer, it is not glossy faux leather, and it is not cut in plus sizes. It is an oversized-looking bomber with a collar that gives it a tailored edge, and it comes in XS, S, M and L.
If that sounds like what you were after, read on. If you need extended sizing, it is better to know that now than after ordering.
It is $99, with free shipping to the US.
Why it works for a relaxed, structured look
The appeal of this jacket is the mix of soft and sharp. The boxy body and wide sleeves feel easy, while the collar, shoulder tabs and clean zipper line keep it neat.
The collar and shoulder details
The pointed lapel collar sits like a shirt collar and gives the neckline some shape. It is the closest thing this jacket has to a blazer. The epaulette tabs on the shoulders are structured and add a little definition above the drop-shoulder seam.
These details are why it looks more finished than a plain zip-up. It also means you can wear it open over a simple tee and it still looks put together.
The gathered hem and loose sleeves
The hem is gathered into a bubble shape, so the jacket curves in slightly at the bottom instead of falling straight. In the photos this gives the silhouette a rounded, boxy outline. The seam details across the chest add some structure to the front.
The sleeves are long and wide. They are cut with a drop shoulder, so the seam sits below the point of your shoulder. That gives the oversized look without you needing to size up. Because the sleeves are roomy, they should fit over a sweater or a long-sleeve top without feeling tight in the arm. The maker has not given sleeve measurements, so we cannot give you a number.
Fabric and feel
The maker lists the material as polyester. The photos show a matte, suede-like surface rather than a shiny leather look, which is why we call it faux suede. Brown in the photos reads soft and slightly textured.
The listing describes the thickness as standard and the season as all season. We have no information on lining, padding or stretch, so we will not claim any. If warmth matters to you, think of this as a light to mid-weight layer for spring and fall, worn over a sweater when it gets colder. Expect it to be a jacket for cool days, not a heavy winter coat.
It comes in six colors: black, navy blue, khaki, army green, dark brown and burgundy. The photos we have show the brown version, so shades in other colors may look slightly different on your screen.
Care instructions
The maker has not supplied a care label that we can quote, so check the tag inside your jacket when it arrives and follow it first. As general guidance for a polyester suede-look fabric, keep care gentle:
- Spot clean marks with a soft, damp cloth.
- Avoid high heat, including hot dryers and direct ironing on the surface.
- Hang it on a wide hanger to keep the shoulders and collar in shape.
- Let it air dry if it gets damp, away from radiators.
- Brush lightly with a soft brush if the surface looks flattened.
Size guide
The jacket is offered in four sizes, XS, S, M and L, and the maker has not published a full size chart.
The only measurement we have from the maker is back length: 65 cm (25.59 in) in XS, 66 cm (25.98 in) in S, 67 cm (26.38 in) in M and 68 cm (26.77 in) in L. There are no bust, shoulder or sleeve numbers, so the guidance below is based on the photos and the cut.
How to measure
Because we do not have bust or sleeve numbers, the best method is to compare against a jacket you already own and like the fit of.
- Lay the jacket flat and zip it up.
- Measure straight across the chest, just under the armholes, and double it.
- Measure from the highest point of the shoulder down to the hem for length.
- Measure from the shoulder seam to the cuff for sleeve length.
Then compare your length with the listed back lengths above. Length is the one number we can be sure of. It also helps to measure your own bust, waist and hips with a soft tape so you know where you sit.
Which size should I choose?
The cut is loose and boxy with dropped shoulders, so the jacket is designed to sit roomy. If you like the oversized look, your usual size should give you that effect. If you want it closer to the body, you may prefer to size down, but we cannot promise how much room each size has.
If you plan to wear thick sweaters under it, think about the largest size you would be comfortable in. Remember that the range stops at L, so anyone who normally wears an XL or larger should not expect this to fit.
All sales are final for fit or change of mind. If you are between sizes or unsure, message us before ordering and we will help you work it out.
How to style it
The easiest way is to wear it open over a plain tee or a fine knit, with straight jeans and sneakers. The collar and shoulder tabs do the work, so keep everything else simple.
A few other ideas:
- With a slip skirt or midi skirt. The boxy shape balances a long, narrow line, and the cropped feel keeps the waist visible.
- With tailored trousers. The collar suits a neat pair of black or cream trousers and flat shoes or loafers.
- Zipped up over a turtleneck. Matching tones, like dark brown with cream, look calm and polished.
- With leggings or straight denim and boots. An easy weekend outfit that needs no thought.
Keep accessories small. A simple bag and a thin necklace are plenty, because the jacket already has plenty of shape.
Where else you can wear it
This is an everyday layer first. It works for school runs, errands, travel days and long afternoons out when the temperature drops.
It also suits relaxed offices, dinners and evening plans when you want something more shaped than a hoodie. Because the maker lists it as all season, it can come out in spring and stay through fall, with a sweater underneath when needed. It is not meant for heavy rain or deep cold.
