Item Introduction: ANTHOON HIGH COMFORT TAILORED JACKET / 2510MJA01

Functionality of Regular Fit × Stretch Fabric

When thinking of Ann Demeulemeester jackets, many might imagine asymmetric designs, bold drapes, and ribbon details that create visual impact. However, the ANTHOON jacket opts for a “regular fit” and uses rayon material to significantly enhance ease of movement and comfort.

Compared to conventional 100% wool jackets, the 100% rayon construction provides moderate stretch, reducing tightness around the shoulders and elbows. This results in a modern tailored piece that defies the “rayon = stiff” stereotype.

The lining uses a cotton-rayon blend for added breathability and moisture absorption. Designed for spring/summer wear, it features a lightweight feel and stress-free comfort.
Some even say, “This is the most comfortable tailored jacket I’ve ever worn.” It's a highly versatile piece suitable for both daily and formal use.

Minimalist Design That Retains Brand Identity

The ANTHOON jacket features a very basic design with a single-breasted, two-button closure and notched lapels. Elements like flap pockets and a center vent follow classic tailoring traditions, while subtle nuances express Ann Demeulemeester’s dark aesthetic.

By intentionally excluding standout features like ribbons or asymmetry, this piece emphasizes “refined, mature minimalism”. Even without flashy elements, it radiates the brand’s DNA through luxurious detailing.
The secret lies in the fabric texture, precise cutting, and expert Italian craftsmanship — details that aren’t always visible but are deeply intentional.

New Creative Director Stefano Gallici has made clear his vision to “honor the brand’s heritage while pursuing comfort for today’s lifestyle.” The ANTHOON jacket is a prime example of this concept brought to life.

Commitment to Materials, Quality, and Craftsmanship

In the 2025 Spring/Summer collection “The Dialogue of Another Day” from Ann Demeulemeester, traditional tailoring techniques meet modern values suited for today’s lifestyle.
Especially with the centerpiece item, the “ANTHOON HIGH COMFORT TAILORED JACKET,” you’ll find poetic yet functional details throughout — from the fabric selection to stitching and finishing touches. Here, we’ll dig deeper into its materials, quality, and craftsmanship.

Premium Rayon Fabric

The main fabric used in this jacket is a rayon-based “HIGH COMFORT” material. It features rayon’s unique gloss, warmth retention, and natural drape.

The lining is made of a cotton-rayon blend, offering both the softness and absorbency of cotton and the smooth texture of rayon. It also provides breathability for comfortable spring and summer wear.

These material choices go beyond convenience — they’re key to preserving the brand’s poetic aesthetic. This quiet expression, balancing avant-garde flair and practicality while maintaining a monochrome world centered on black, is what makes this jacket so distinctive.

High-Level Tailoring by Italian Artisans

Ann Demeulemeester jackets are supported by high-level tailoring from skilled Italian artisans. Key tailored areas like the shoulders, collar, and sleeve attachment are crafted using three-dimensional pattern work to allow the fabric to naturally conform to the body without pulling or tension.

Delicate stitching and carefully finished seam allowances on the inside — though not visible at a glance — embody the brand’s attention to detail. This dedication brings the label’s signature dark aesthetic not only to the outer design but also to the garment’s inner structure.

Furthermore, the overall collection’s theme, “Regency vs Punk,” is reflected in this piece by blending traditional tailoring techniques (Regency) with modern values like comfort and mode appeal (Punk), showcasing this balance through its craftsmanship.

Bringing “Delicate Construction” to Life

When discussing Ann Demeulemeester’s craftsmanship, one cannot ignore its philosophy of “poetic deconstruction.”
The ANTHOON HIGH COMFORT Jacket avoids excessive decoration and asymmetry, placing the focus entirely on its “delicate construction.”

Specifically, the jacket uses minimal shoulder padding for reduced stress on the body, and the curved lines of the lapels and sleeve attachments are made as natural as possible, achieving a silhouette that is both soft and structured.

Even small details such as the lining attachments and button stitching are imbued with the brand’s aesthetic values. For example, the pattern design, like an art piece, ensures graceful drape and hemline flow even when in motion — always preserving the wearer’s elegance.
This is the essence of Ann Demeulemeester’s meticulous craftsmanship — a quiet passion hidden within the garment that brings the theme of “dialogue” to life.

[Staff Comment]
“The shoulder silhouette instantly gives away its identity as an ‘Ann Demeulemeester’ piece. The black-based aesthetic is also irresistible for fans. It masterfully balances traditional tailoring with lightweight comfort. It’s so ‘easy to wear’ that many say it makes other wool jackets feel restrictive.”

[Buyer’s Perspective]
“Giving rayon this level of subtle stretch and luxury texture requires an extremely high level of technical skill and pattern design. Yes, the price is high-end, but when you consider the blend of ‘comfort’ and ‘avant-garde aesthetic,’ it’s well worth it. This is a masterpiece that fully reflects Ann Demeulemeester’s commitment to tailoring and materials.”

The more involved one is in fashion, the more they’ll admire Ann Demeulemeester’s unique ability to blend traditional tailoring with modern functionality — the brand’s signature poetic deconstruction. Its lightness shatters preconceptions of heavy wool jackets, and the second-skin comfort will make you never want to take it off.
Though it belongs to the luxury price range, the beauty and function it offers more than justify the investment — this is a truly exceptional jacket.

Size Selection & Care Instructions

One of the common concerns when choosing a tailored jacket is "size selection". With rayon material, "care instructions" are also something to consider.
This section covers key points for selecting the right size and how to care for the item.

Size Selection Tips

- As this is based on a regular fit, if you usually wear size M, you can confidently choose size M.
- Overseas sizing may feel slightly larger than Japanese sizing, so if possible, consult in-store or with our staff.
- There's some stretch around the shoulders, so even if you size down slightly, you’ll still have a comfortable fit.
- If you're unsure, refer to the staff fitting comments and base your decision on your height and weight for the best match.

Care & Durability

- Dry cleaning is recommended. As the main material is rayon, hand washing may damage the fabric.
- Wrinkles can be reduced by hanging, but if using an iron, use a pressing cloth or a steamer and proceed with caution.
- For items with a half-lining or light tailoring, avoid brushing too harshly.
- For long-term storage, use mothballs or dehumidifiers to prevent moisture and insect damage.

Since the fabric has stretch, excessive strain may damage the surface. Avoid intense physical activity and handle the garment with care for long-lasting use.
