A smocked waist that shapes the silhouette

The LCWSARA stands out with its elasticated smocked waist: the leather tightens at the bottom of the jacket and creates a slight blouson effect above. This play on volume adds depth to an otherwise understated cut, while allowing the hem to move with you. Smooth, supple lambskin lends itself to this flexible design without weighing down the silhouette.

The shirt collar adds a classic touch and frames the neck without closing it off like a stand-up collar. At the front, the straight zip closure extends the garment’s central line. The chest panel and its decorative topstitching add rhythm to the front, with a graphic detail that remains subtle against the black leather.

Understated details designed for everyday wear

The two welted hand pockets are integrated into the front rather than being patch pockets: their openings remain clean and do not interrupt the lines of the jacket. The straight cuffs, without tabs or zips, preserve a streamlined finish. The overall design therefore focuses on construction and topstitching rather than an accumulation of metal details.

Its regular fit leaves room to wear the jacket over a lightweight top or a fine sweater, without seeking the close-fitting effect of a fitted model. The elasticated waist already creates a point of visual definition; a straight hem, such as jeans or simple trousers, naturally balances the volume of the leather. The black colour and shirt collar give the LCWSARA a more classic feel than a biker jacket with an asymmetric zip.

Schott, a New York house founded in 1913

Schott Bros. was established in Manhattan in 1913 by brothers Irving and Jack Schott, the sons of Russian immigrants. The house initially made rainwear before expanding into leather and outerwear. In 1928, Irving Schott created the asymmetric zip leather jacket that would make the brand famous in the world of American clothing. The LCWSARA reflects this long-standing leather expertise, with a lighter, more streamlined feminine interpretation than the house’s historic models.
