Designed to address the lack of for both movement, function and elegance in most women's jackets. Long sleeves that can be rolled or left hanging. Shoulders unrestricted by tight fit. Plenty of space for the possibility of layering. A bustle allows movement at the waist and creates a silhouette that dramatically highlights a feminine waistline. Inspiration was pulled from the Hungarian peasant jacket called the “bujka.” You'll see this especially from the "back" view of the jacket and how the seams mirror these elements. Often these jackets were made of leather, thick wool, or velvet.
