Leather jacket not biker!

Looking for a lovely stylish leather jacket. Have been looking but cant seem to track down anything that is not a biker jacket. Any suggestions? Nothing to boxy or short. Its a gift so nothing too £££. Its for a 50th present.

Have you looked in Massimo Dutti?

Yes and they look beautiful. Just a bit wary as its a brand that I have never used and know that the sizes are generally small. Have you bought from them? Don't want something that it too short in the body.

Green leather jacket

Need a 12 but maybe a 14 would be wiser?

I have a leather jacket from Massimo Dutti and it is lovely. Soft good quality leather. I wouldn't buy larger. Mine is a size 10 and leaves enough room for shirt, or thin sweater. Think you would spoil the look if you go too big.

So stick with a normal size 12? Does anyone else have experience of Massimo ditto sizing?

i like the green one but think it would be annoying around the neck area as it points inwards rather thans folds down
