The blouson that marries vintage aviation with modern femininity

The ALICIA LAMB PAOLO in Dark Cognac is a leather aviator jacket crafted from washed lambskin, designed for those who appreciate the timeless allure of flight-inspired outerwear with a contemporary twist. This piece from Rose Garden’s collection reinterprets the classic aviator silhouette with a slightly tailored slim fit, ensuring a flattering shape without sacrificing comfort. The washed lambskin develops a rich patina over time, making each wear unique—no two jackets will age quite the same. It’s a jacket built for movement, with a supple drape that adapts to the body while maintaining structure where it counts.

A nod to aviation history, reimagined for everyday wear

The aviator jacket traces its roots to the early 20th century, when pilots needed durable, wind-resistant outerwear for open-cockpit flights. The original designs featured thick leather, fur-lined collars, and ample pockets for maps and tools—functional details that later became style statements. The ALICIA LAMB PAOLO pays homage to this heritage with its shirt-style collar, zippered front, and flap pockets secured with press studs, but it strips away the bulk to suit modern wardrobes. The result is a jacket that feels as at home over a dress as it does with jeans and boots, bridging the gap between utilitarian and elegant.

Designed for versatility, inside and out

Practicality is woven into every detail. The two exterior flap pockets offer easy access for essentials, while the interior features a zippered pocket for valuables and a slip pocket for additional storage. The ribbed cuffs and hem provide a snug fit, keeping out the chill without restricting movement. Inside, the playful cotton lining adds a touch of personality, while the polyester sleeves ensure durability. The jacket’s unlined body makes it adaptable across seasons—layer it over a lightweight jumper in autumn or a chunky knit in winter. The dark cognac hue is a versatile neutral, deep enough to ground bold outfits yet warm enough to complement earthy tones.

Rose Garden has carved a niche in leather outerwear by blending quality manufacturing with a rebellious spirit. The brand’s philosophy centres on creating pieces that feel both timeless and fresh, often drawing inspiration from vintage workwear and aviation history. Their collections favour quality materials and thoughtful details, ensuring each jacket tells a story while remaining wearable for everyday life. The ALICIA LAMB PAOLO is a prime example of this approach—rooted in heritage but designed for the modern woman who values both style and substance.

• Washed lambskin leather: Soft yet durable, this leather develops a distinctive patina with wear, ensuring your jacket ages beautifully. The washing process gives it a lived-in feel from the start, while maintaining the strength of traditional lambskin.
