In the workshops of Jaipur, where velvet is treated like a canvas rather than cloth, this jacket began as a tribute to the quiet magic of a winter night. The deep slate-purple base evokes dusk settling over a courtyard — the kind of hour when stories of snow-bears and evergreen trees feel real, even under a desert sky.
Hand-chained embroidery scatters across the surface in a joyful, unplanned rhythm: a plump Christmas tree dotted with mustard and ivory baubles, a red-robed polar bear with button eyes, candy-cane stripes in slate blue and cream, golden bells, starbursts, and looping alphabet motifs that read like a half-remembered carol. Threads in burgundy, pine green, dove grey and gold catch the velvet's pile, giving each motif a raised, tactile presence — no two placements are identical, a signature of hand craftsmanship over machine repetition.
Cut in a relaxed, oversized silhouette with a structured collar, this jacket layers easily over knits and shirting alike. It carries the weight and warmth of true velvet while remaining light enough for everyday wear — a piece meant to be worn long after the season that inspired it has passed.
