WIW : Best Jacket Ever!

Lol, well my excitement my wear off, but I hope not.  This is the Motto Jacket I bought last week (with Birthday $$) and I could not be more happy.

I have been looking for a leather jacket in this style (inspired by my love of all things Rick Owens) and couldn't believe it when I found this.

It is not leather but looks a bit that way.  It is actually a double coated jersey. It's heavy-ish to pick up but feels light weight on.  It has stretch, and can be washed in the washing machine!! 

I wore it out for coffee this morning over leggings, a long sleeve top and a tunic.  Its cold here and the jacket is surprisingly warm. I suspect that with a short sleeves underneath it will also be find for Spring.

This is one of those garments that I could literally wear every day (but I will try to control myself).  

Couldn't wait to show show.  What do you think?  

Thanks for taking a look:)

xxx Deborah

    So striking. I love the way it frames your face, especially zipped. What a find and B-day gift.

  • Suz replied 8 years ago

    Wow, that is amazing!!! Who makes it? Can you link? It looks so luxurious. I keep thinking Avengers! It will really earn its cost in your closet, no question. 

  • Deborah replied 8 years ago

    Suz, thank you!  I always l wanted to me Emma Peel!!    It is by Motto an Australian label based in my home town of Melbourne.    Here is the link http://www.motto.com.au/coats-.....4_1001231/

    They do ship overseas and shipping is quite reasonable... $25.00.

    They have a similar aesthetic to Metalicus:)  I may have to split my loyalty :)

    Happy dance, it's a fab piece, wow! 

  • Echo replied 8 years ago

    Wow, that is a fantastic jacket! It really does look like leather in the pics; I would have guessed it was. But washable is even better! And it really does have a Rick Owens feel to it. Fabulous purchase!

  • carolbee replied 8 years ago

    Love it. I certainly need to check out this Motto brand.

  • Ruth M replied 8 years ago

    What a great jacket - and you look stunning in it.  Such a flattering cut - great collar, gorgeous waist detailing - I love that extra peplum-y bit.  It fits you perfectly, it suits your style perfectly, it will go with everything in your wardrobe - and you can throw it in the washing machine? It will be difficult to NOT wear it every day!

  • Astrid replied 8 years ago

    Love it! The fit is perfect for you.

  • Melaine replied 8 years ago

    Fabulous, and looks so much better on you than it does on the model in their web site photos!!

  • UmmLila (Lisa) replied 8 years ago

    It's perfect on you, and I also agree that it looks better on you than in the stock photos.

  • gryffin replied 8 years ago

    Love, love, love! It's lovely to have something special for your birthday. I think the jacket looks great both open and closed too. Have fun creating more outfits.

    Killer Perfect for you, Debs. Enjoy. 

  • Cococat replied 8 years ago

    I love it! It looks amazing on you.

    Mine arrived on Friday and sadly it's too big. I'll see if they can find the size down or else I will have it altered. It's too beautiful to return.

  • replied 8 years ago

    Gorgeous jacket - and fits you to a t.  Really interesting fabrication too.

  • jackiec replied 8 years ago

    Gorgeous! I can't believe it's not leather! Washable - amazing. Great find.

  • TraceyLiz65 replied 8 years ago

    Absolutely , perfect addition to your wardrobe. I can see why you want to wear it daily!  

  • deb replied 8 years ago

    Beautiful!

  • Sveta replied 8 years ago

    Gorgeous and very you!

  • Gracie replied 8 years ago

    You look stunning in this jacket!

  • DizzyLizzy replied 8 years ago

    That jacket looks like it was tailored just for you - it looks fabulous. I think we are about the same height. Did you just take your normal size? Room to layer a little bit underneath? I am soooo tempted....

  • Eliza replied 8 years ago

    That jacket is amazing on you. When you describe its comfort, it adds to the win. Just stunning. Workhorse for sure!

  • MsMaven replied 8 years ago

    What everyone else said. Great fit, perfect for you as well as individuality.

  • unfrumped replied 8 years ago

    AhMazing! You have a great eye.

  • Jaime replied 8 years ago

    I think you have been embodied in a jacket :-)!

  • Maneera replied 8 years ago

    You look stunning! This really is a great jacket! What a wonderful way to forget winter blues...if I looked like that in a jacket, I'd like winters to hang around some more so I could wear the jacket as often as possible :D

  • Meow replied 8 years ago

    Stunning! I want that jacket (Or to look as good as you in that jacket).

  • Helen11 replied 8 years ago

    It's great to see it zipped up, the neckline is so cool. You look fab! I looked at the Motto website, and the jacket also comes in Not Black (it's red!). I may need reminding that jackets belong in my fantasy life......

  • Karie replied 8 years ago

    Black Widow from the Avengers! You totally rock in that jacket, Deb! If I had something that fit me that perfectly, I would wear it everyday.
