The Rye Jacket is a must for the transition of seasons. Light and stylish it’s an easy wear. Pair it with Jeans and a T for a casual look or wear over your Petworth dress with trainers for a lunch out with friends or a shopping trip.

Add the optional patch pockets or top stitch in a contrasting thread. It suits any Mid to Heavy weight fabrics as a jacket but you could always use a light chambray to make it more of an over shirt. Layers are always a great option!

The Glynde Women’s Waistcoat offers classic styling with princess seams that give a flattering and easy fit for all body shapes. The two front pockets integrate neatly with the construction and it's fully lined for comfort and finish.
