Description
A lapel needs a shoulder to lie on and a neck to fall away from, which is why it looks wrong on a short jacket worn open. A stand-up collar needs neither. It is cut on the straight and interlined so it holds its own shape, and on this black mink jacket it stands clear of the neck whether the jacket is buttoned to the top or left completely open.
That is the whole reason to choose this cut over a shawl or a notch. It frames the face at the same height every time, it does not collapse when a bag goes over the shoulder, and it gives you somewhere to turn up against the wind without the collar fighting you.
Gold buttons up the centre, deep turn-back cuffs, and a band of fur set across the hem so the jacket finishes on a line rather than an edge. Hip length, cut to wear over jeans. See the rest of our mink jackets, the black mink coats, and bring it in each spring to be cleaned and cold stored.
