Measure either your body (to choose a size) or a jacket you already own (to compare product measurements). Measure your body Chest/Bust: Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest with arms relaxed; keep it snug but not tight. Waist: Measure at the natural waist (narrowest part of the torso). Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips. Shoulder width: Measure from shoulder bone to shoulder bone across the back. Sleeve length: With arm slightly bent, measure from the shoulder seam (or from the center back of the neck for center-back sleeve measurement) down to the wrist bone. Back length: From the base of the collar (center back) straight down to the hem. Measure the jacket (recommended when comparing to a product size chart) Chest (armpit-to-armpit): Lay the jacket flat, fasten the front, measure straight across 1–2 cm below the armholes. Double that number to get chest circumference. Shoulder width: Measure seam-to-seam across the back at the shoulder seams. Sleeve length: Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff. Back length: Measure from the base of the collar (center back) to the hem. Hem width: Measure straight across the bottom edge and double for circumference. Fit guidance: For a close fit allow 1–2 in (2.5–5 cm) ease; for light layering allow 3–4 in (7.5–10 cm); for an oversized look allow 4–8 in (10–20 cm). Conversion: 1 in = 2.54 cm. Materials Houndstooth describes the woven pattern; fiber content can vary. Typical materials for a button-down jacket of this style: Shell: Houndstooth woven fabric — commonly a wool blend (warm, structured) or a polyester/viscose blend (durable, easier care). Typical mixes range around 50–70% wool or polyester with remaining fibers such as viscose, nylon or elastane for comfort and resilience. Lining: Smooth polyester or viscose lining for comfort and easy layering. Trims & interlining: Lightweight interfacing at collar/placket and buttons made from plastic, corozo or horn-effect materials. If you need the exact fiber percentages for this specific item, check the sewn care label or the product’s technical details on the product page. Model information Model height: 5'9" (175 cm) Wearing size: S (Small) Fit shown: True to size with room for light layering. Consider sizing up for thicker knit layers or a more relaxed/oversized silhouette. Care guide — to keep it lovely longer Recommended: Dry clean for best results—especially for wool-blend shells—to preserve shape, color and finish. Spot cleaning: Blot spills immediately with a clean cloth. For small stains use cold water and mild detergent; test on an inside seam first. Machine wash (only if label allows): Gentle/delicate cycle, cold water, mild detergent, inside a mesh bag; reshape while damp and lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry: Heat can shrink or distort fabric and lining. Ironing & steaming: Steam to remove wrinkles. If ironing, use low heat and a pressing cloth to protect the weave. Storage: Hang on a shaped or padded hanger, store in a breathable garment bag, and avoid prolonged direct sunlight. Moth prevention: For wool blends use cedar blocks or lavender sachets and ensure clothing is clean before long-term storage. Refresh & maintenance: Use a lint roller or clothes brush for surface fibers; a fabric shaver removes pilling safely. Note: Always follow the garment’s sewn care label—the label provides the definitive instructions for this specific jacket. Style tips Casual: Throw over a white tee and slim jeans; finish with clean sneakers or ankle boots for an easy everyday look. Office: Layer over a crisp button-down or a fine turtleneck and pair with tailored trousers or a pencil skirt; loafers or low heels complete the outfit. Elevated: Belt at the waist over a blouse or dress for a defined silhouette and add heeled ankle boots or pumps. Mixing patterns: Pair houndstooth with solids or very small-scale prints; keep one piece neutral to balance the ensemble. Accessories: A brooch on the lapel, a slim leather belt, or warm metallic jewelry add polish to monochrome palettes. Seasonal: Great for transitional weather—layer a lightweight knit underneath for cool days, or wear open with a tee in milder temperatures.
