Size: XS

The Living Silk Pure Silk Jacket is an elegant and versatile occasion jacket designed to provide a beautiful finishing layer over dresses, skirts and special-occasion outfits. With its timeless silhouette, flattering ¾ sleeves and luxurious pure silk fabric, it is an especially elegant choice for the mother of the bride, mother of the groom, wedding guest or any woman dressing for a special occasion.

Designed to sit beautifully over the shoulders and arms, this silk jacket provides just the right amount of coverage without hiding the outfit underneath. The ¾ sleeves can be cuffed back for a more relaxed finish, making this a versatile piece that can be styled in different ways.

Choosing a Jacket for a Mother of the Bride or Mother of the Groom Outfit

A silk jacket can be an elegant finishing layer for a wedding outfit, providing graceful coverage over the shoulders and arms while complementing a dress or skirt. Our Complete Mother of the Bride & Mother of the Groom Guide offers helpful advice on choosing colours, fabrics, silhouettes and accessories for a beautifully considered wedding-day outfit.

A Silk Jacket for the Mother of the Bride

For the mother of the bride, a pure silk jacket can be the perfect finishing touch to a wedding outfit. Wear it over a cocktail dress, tea length dress, ankle length dress or full-length gown for an elegant and polished look.

It is particularly useful when you would like a little extra coverage for the ceremony, photographs or cooler parts of the wedding day, while still allowing your dress to remain the focus of your outfit.

The Pure Silk Jacket is equally beautiful as a mother of the groom jacket, making it a versatile choice for the wedding day and future special occasions.

An Elegant Silk Wedding Jacket

A silk wedding jacket is a timeless alternative to a traditional bolero or cardigan. The natural beauty and subtle lustre of pure silk add sophistication to an occasion outfit, while the simple silhouette allows the jacket to complement rather than compete with your dress.

Choose from elegant colours including Midnight Blue, Sage Green, Black, Silver and Soft Pink to complement your wedding outfit or create a refined contrast.

The jacket can also be worn beyond the wedding day with evening dresses, cocktail outfits and other special-occasion pieces.

How to Style a Pure Silk Jacket

Wear your Pure Silk Jacket over a Living Silk dress for a coordinated occasion outfit, or pair it with a silk skirt and top for an elegant two-piece look.

For a classic mother of the bride outfit, choose a complementary or tonal colour. Midnight Blue, Silver and Soft Pink can create a sophisticated wedding combination, while Black provides a timeless evening option.

The jacket is also an excellent choice when you want the flexibility to change your outfit throughout the day — wear it for the ceremony and photographs, then remove it for the reception.

Beautiful Coverage Without Losing Elegance

If you are looking for something to wear over your shoulders with a dress, the Pure Silk Jacket provides a polished alternative to a shawl or wrap.

Its tailored shape gives more structure than a soft wrap, while the ¾ sleeves provide elegant arm coverage. This makes it particularly useful for women who want a little more coverage while still wearing a lightweight, luxurious fabric.

Pure Silk for Weddings and Special Occasions

Handcrafted and Australian designed by Living Silk, this pure silk jacket for women is made for elegant dressing throughout the year.

Whether you are looking for a mother of the bride silk jacket, mother of the groom jacket, silk wedding jacket or elegant evening jacket, this timeless piece can become a versatile part of your occasion wardrobe.

Refer to the Living Silk Pure Silk Jacket Size Guide for garment measurements and fit information before ordering. Consider the outfit you plan to wear underneath when selecting your size.

Size chart

Find your best fit for the Pure Silk Jacket from Living Silk.

This pure silk lightweight jacket is made from pure opaque silk and is designed to sit elegantly over dresses, skirts and other special-occasion outfits. It is an open-front style that does not meet or fasten across the body.

The jacket has three-quarter sleeves that can be cuffed back, with a slight collar.  

How the Pure Silk Jacket Fits

The Pure Silk Jacket is designed to be worn as a lightweight outer layer rather than as a close-fitting garment.

When choosing your size, consider the outfit you intend to wear underneath the jacket. If you are planning to wear it over a fitted dress, allow enough room for comfortable movement through the shoulders and arms.

Because the jacket is open at the front, bust measurement should be considered primarily in relation to the shoulder, arm and overall fit of the garment, rather than expecting the jacket to close across the bust.

The nature of the opaque silk also means that the jacket falls softly over the garment underneath.

For the most accurate result, compare these garment measurements with a jacket or lightweight outer layer that fits you comfortably.

Measuring Yourself

For the best result, take your measurements while wearing light clothing or undergarments similar to what you expect to wear beneath the jacket.

Bust

Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape measure comfortably level.

Waist

Measure around your natural waist without pulling the tape tightly.

Shoulders

Measure across the back from one shoulder point to the other.

Sleeve

Consider the sleeve length as well as how you would like to wear the three-quarter sleeves. The sleeves can be cuffed back for a different look.

Choosing Your Size

If your measurements fall between two sizes, consider how you intend to wear the jacket.

For a more relaxed layer over a dress or outfit, you may prefer the larger size. For a neater, more streamlined appearance, you may prefer the smaller size, provided the shoulders and arms remain comfortable.

If you are unsure which size to choose, contact Living Silk for personalised sizing and styling advice.

Pure Silk Jacket for the Mother of the Bride

The Pure Silk Jacket is an elegant choice for the mother of the bride or mother of the groom who wants lightweight shoulder and arm coverage.  

It works particularly well over sleeveless, strapless and tea-length occasion dresses.

Pure Silk Jacket or Pure Silk Organza Jacket?

Living Silk also offers the Pure Silk Organza Jacket.

Both jackets are the same pattern, but one is opaque pure silk and the other is pure silk organza, so it is sheer.  

The Pure Silk Organza Jacket is the classic, versatile sheer jacket. The Silk Jacket is opaque.
