Le Canari Sage Green Chinoiserie Frog Closure Jacket

Originally brought to New Zealand from the UK, this Le Canari jacket is a wearable conversation starter, the kind you keep reaching for because it oozes style. The base is a soft silk in sage green with a smooth, satin-like finish, printed with painterly florals in pinks, lilacs, and sunny accents. Then it gets even better: the contrast panels in a geometric key pattern add structure and a crisp frame, especially through the front placket, cuffs, and pockets.

The frog closures give it that classic chinoiserie influence, while the overall shape stays modern and easy, hip length, relaxed through the body, and ideal for layering. It is brilliant over a simple dress, sharp with tailored trousers, and unexpectedly cool with denim.

It reads like collected style. Not trend. Not costume. Just a great jacket with a point of view.
