The Besharl Jacket is a relaxed, shawl-collared layer designed with soft structure and an easy, cocooned shape. It’s the kind of piece that feels effortless to wear while still looking considered—perfect for layering through changing seasons. The design features a gently curved silhouette with a dropped back hem on the long version or a clean, straight hem on the short version. Three-quarter length sleeves and a fluid shawl collar give it a balanced, modern feel. Two length options allow for flexibility in styling, with the long version including optional inseam pockets for added function. A bound neckband finish can be used as a subtle design detail, especially when paired with contrast bias binding. Designed for fabrics with drape, the Besharl Jacket works beautifully in wool, ponte, and sweater knits, allowing you to create anything from a cozy everyday layer to a more refined outer piece.
