The quality of this far exceeded what I was expecting for the price. The fit was slightly off but the return was accepted without issue and a better fitting size was sent, even though it was my lack of measuring skills causing the mix up. Great jacket I wear often while leading guided History Tours and it lends an incredible look to what I am doing, leading to many compliments. Excellent customer service as well.

This is a beautiful jacket. It fits perfectly and is of very high quality, which I appreciate as the price is reasonable. This is a great jacket to wear for a night on the town.

While this jacket could technically pass for a Victorian smoking jacket, it is definitely a modern blazer. I have a huge fondness for velvet blazers because they are so versatile. In terms of evening wear, a velvet blazer can be paired with a shirt and tie (especially a bow tie) for a formal event, or it can be paired with a trendy tshirt and jeans for an informal event. This jacket is very handsome, expertly tailored, and will definitely attract a lot of attention. It also comes from Italy, where velvet has been made for centuries. So you can expect the quality to be quite high. These jackets can be very expensive, so this very affordable jacket is definitely entry level, but it still has the high quality tailoring you would expect to come from Italy. Once I get the funds, I will definitely purchase another one.

Rich, dark and yet also quite vibrant
The three adjectives I've used in the review title pretty much say it all. The midnight blue velvet is rich and lush, a thick texture as well as being quite easy on the eye; the colour is superb. The sizing was also spot on - it fit like a glove on taking it out of the box; a moment of marvellous serendipity! Highly recommended in terms of look and construction (it's quite durable as well as attractive and a fortuitous fit), it breaks up a predominantly black-suited work wardrobe with a bit of dash and savoir-faire!

I'm really pleased with this jacket. It's very well made and the velvet is very plush. Though I bought it specifically for a costume event, it's nice enough that I can wear it as a casual jacket.

This was a holiday gift and I am so glad I selected this one. I made my purchase based on customer reviews and I was not disappointed. Easy order, fast shipping, just as advertised. Size is true to chart (in my instance anyway). Very pleased, so much so that it was worn with ascot to NYE semi-formal and looked GREAT. Worth the price, very well made.
