The Paris Black: A Modern Take on the Iconic Perfecto

The Paris Black by Cityzen is a women’s leather jacket that redefines the legendary Perfecto silhouette with a contemporary edge. Crafted from supple sheep leather, this piece balances the rebellious spirit of the original biker jacket with a sleek, feminine fit. Its deep black hue and minimalist design make it a versatile staple, while the slim-cut construction ensures a flattering, modern silhouette that moves with you.

A Rock-Inspired Classic, Reimagined for Everyday Wear

Inspired by the timeless allure of the Perfecto—first introduced by Schott NYC in the 1920s—this jacket pays homage to the rugged, counterculture roots of the biker aesthetic. However, the Paris Black softens the look with a refined, streamlined shape, making it just as suited to a night out as it is to a casual day in the city. The absence of fur trim keeps the focus on the leather’s natural texture and the jacket’s clean lines, while the lightweight sheep leather ensures comfort without sacrificing durability.

Crafted for All Seasons, Designed for Women

Unlike heavier motorcycle jackets, the Paris Black is designed to transition seamlessly through the seasons. The sheep leather offers just the right amount of warmth for autumn and spring, while its breathable quality prevents overheating in milder weather. Whether layered over a chunky knit in winter or paired with a simple tee in summer, this jacket adapts effortlessly to your wardrobe. Its slim fit and extended size range (from S to 3XL) ensure a tailored look for every body type.

Cityzen is a brand that bridges the gap between urban style and timeless quality manufacturing. Specialising in leather outerwear, the label draws inspiration from classic silhouettes—like the Perfecto or the bomber—while infusing them with modern cuts and accessible designs. Based in France, Cityzen focuses on creating pieces that are both statement-making and versatile, ensuring each jacket tells a story without sacrificing wearability.
