Ikat Jackets and Blazers

Nine jackets, and the widest price range in the shop: a cotton polka-dot jacket at $99, silk-cotton blazers and jacket-and-skirt or jacket-and-trouser sets at $220–245, and two silk velvet ikat jacket sets at $460–560 — the velvet is the most labour-intensive cloth we sell, and a jacket takes four to five metres of it. All are made to order in Tashkent in S–XXL or your measurements, 18–25 days, then tracked airmail. The sets are sold as sets; the listing shows what is included.

A jacket is the chapan shortened, and it is worn the same way: open, over something plain.

    The jacket as a short chapan

    Take the four panels of a chapan, stop them at the hip, add a lapel or a collar, and you have an ikat jacket; the pattern still runs down each panel unbroken because each is one loom-width of 40 cm cloth. That is the geometry behind the blazers here, and why a jacket front shows the repeat whole rather than cut across. The Robes & Kaftans page has the long version.

    Velvet jackets

    The two velvet sets are cut from bakhmal, silk pile on a cotton ground, pattern in the tips of the pile; they are lined, they are dry-clean only, and they are the pieces to wear once a week for twenty years. The velvet fabric page explains the cloth.

    Sizes and care

    S–XXL on the listings, or your measurements — chest, shoulder, sleeve, length. Cotton and silk-cotton jackets: hand wash at 30 °C or dry-clean; velvet and lined jackets: dry-clean. Write to us with the listing and the measurements.
