The Leila Sweater Jacket
This edgy sweater jacket, or “shacket,” is made in premium, heavyweight cashmere for ultimate softness made to last. Designed with a slightly boxy, cropped fit in mind, she’s the perfect addition to elevate your fall and winter wardrobes, with bold, oversized-flap-chest pockets and a full zipper with gold hardware.
In Cassandra’s words:
The Leila is named for my dad’s mom who is known for her love of pockets on jackets and her ability to be ready for anything. Female trailblazers are my greatest inspiration—both in my immediate and global communities. I love creating apparel that champions and celebrates the cultures and communities where our garments originated.
These designs, just like the family-run factory that manufactures them, bring a timeless, cross-generational lens to modern fashion.
Cassandra’s styling tips:
Style Leila over your most-loved looks for a smooth transition into cooler weather. Leila is the perfect jacket to be worn solo with pants or trousers and heels for a punch or flaunted, unzipped over your favorite dress or jumpsuit.
