• Cropped puffer silhouette with a zip-through front fastening and an attached hood - built for the kind of weather that demands both warmth and a considered outfit.
• Tie bow detail at the waist cinches the shell for a defined, feminine shape rather than the boxy bulk you'd expect from a puffer.
• Longline sleeves with elasticated cuffs keep draughts out without sacrificing the relaxed, voluminous feel of the padded body.
• Petite-specific cut proportioned to sit correctly on a shorter frame - the cropped hem lands at exactly the right point without swamping.
• Shell fabric note: due to the nature of this fabric, colour may transfer - worth keeping in mind when styling with lighter pieces underneath.

The shell has that satisfying light crinkle - structured enough to hold its shape on a blustery morning, but not so stiff that it fights you when you move. The waist tie is the detail that does the real work here; pull it in for a more defined silhouette or leave it loose for an effortlessly thrown-on feel. This jacket earns its keep on a weekend market run, a casual catch-up with friends, or the school run when you still want to look like you thought about it. Layer over a chunky knit and wide-leg trousers for a look that reads intentional rather than just bundled up. The cropped length makes it a natural partner for high-waisted denim, keeping the proportions sharp without any extra effort required.
