    Great buy on the blazer, Ann's cuts are lovely. I agree it would look better with looser wool trousers or some other Ann's romantic-like pants. Still love it though. And yeah, the retail was insane to the point where I can hardly consider most resale prices whenever it pops out somewhere.

      It did come in silk in grey, black and white. Silk version was much nicer. But it was also a lot more expensive, over 3000 Eur. Think maybe it was 3.5 or so?

        I saw the silk version in person and found it way too dramatic and as such unwearable. Anyway, the cotton version does look very good here.

                  There was a matching pair of trousers as well in the same brocade fabric as well.

                        It is GORGEOUS, but for a certain person who doesn't mind wearing brocade. A bit too dandy for me, personally.

                            The brocade version was the one I tried, and it indeed felt very precious... Its price was around 2700 euro iirc?

                              Pretty sure it was over 3 at the Antwerp store at least. It's a fantastic jacket, but I couldn't justify it. I think the silk peeking out from the pockets and on the lapel really makes it compared to the cotton version.

                              Also if the price of that jacket is anything to go by a lot of the SS12 collection is going to be expensive considering that there is a fair bit of the same or a very similar fabric..
