Barbara Bui — Boucle Tweed Blazer with Leather Sleeves in Cream, Black & Yellow

Italian atelier, downtown attitude. A cropped boucle tweed blazer in cream with yellow and black flecks, set with full-length lambskin leather sleeves and contrast leather piping — Bui's rock-cut Paris tailoring in its most hybrid form.

The Designer

Barbara Bui's leather pieces are the house signature — structured calfskin and lambskin cut with the severity of menswear tailoring but fitted close to the body. Every hide is sourced from Italian tanneries and assembled in small workshops outside Florence, where the brand has produced its outerwear since the late 1980s.
