The Elsa jacket

The Elsa jacket is named after the founder and drawn from her own jackets: single breasted, fitted, with a small tailored collar. The Autumn Winter 2026 Elsa Jacket is black and white patterned wool with a Keyhole jacquard lining. The Elsa Jacket in black linen, wool and mohair is the lighter version, and the black lambskin Elsa Jacket can be worn single breasted and double breasted.

The Vendome jacket with the Padlock

The Vendome jacket closes with a gold metal Padlock, named for the house’s address on Place Vendôme. The Vendome Jacket in black viscose wool is straight cut with bijoux buttons at the cuffs, and the white cady version adds the Keyhole on the collar. The Hair Embroidery Vendome Jacket in brown cady is the collector’s piece.

The Measuring Tape jacket

The tailor’s measuring tape is one of Elsa Schiaparelli’s codes, first wrapped around the 1937 Shocking perfume bottle. The Measuring Tape Jacket in black wool and navy wool are fitted double breasted blazers with a Shocking pink lining and gold Measuring Tape embroidery. The Measuring Tape Cape carries the same embroidery on the shoulders.

Peplum and bustier jackets

The Basque Jacket is a peplum cut in washed denim, and the Trompe L’Oeil Bustier Jacket draws a faux corset on black cady. The Snail Jacket in black suede drapes at the hip to mark the waist, and the Reptile Jacket is black velvet embroidered with black vinyl scales.

Jackets and coats compared

Which jacket to buy first

If you want one jacket that works for ten years, choose the Measuring Tape Jacket in black wool: the house files it in its Iconic line rather than under a single season. The Vendome Jacket is the alternative if you prefer a single clasp to buttons. Wear either over the Schiaparelli jeans by day and over a Schiaparelli dress at night.

Tailoring at Schiaparelli

Elsa Schiaparelli was known as much for sharp tailoring as for surrealism: strong shoulders, a defined waist and buttons that were small works of art. Her Paris house, opened in 1927, closed in 1954 and was relaunched in 2012 by Diego Della Valle. Daniel Roseberry, creative director since 2019, rebuilt the ready-to-wear around that tailoring, which is why so many of the jackets here are fitted at the waist and closed with gilded bijoux buttons, the Padlock and the Keyhole.

Buyer’s checklist for a Schiaparelli jacket

• Season: wool, cashmere and suede for autumn and winter; linen blends and canvas for spring.
• Fit: most jackets are fitted at the waist; take your usual UK size and leave room for a knit if you plan to layer.
• Iconic against seasonal: the Measuring Tape and Vendome jackets are in the Iconic line; embroidered pieces such as the Reptile Jacket are seasonal.
• Lining: Iconic pieces carry the Shocking pink lining; Autumn Winter 2026 pieces use the Keyhole jacquard.
• Care: dry clean only, and remove any brooch before cleaning.
