W5474 Jacket - Black Slim Fit Techno Stretch Pleated Sleeves Ruffle Waist Button Closure Women's Italian

Techno Stretch. Pleated Sleeves. Ruffle Waist. The Technical Jacket With a Feminine Detail.

The W5474 is a slim-fit jacket in techno stretch — 95% polyester, 5% elastane — fully lined in 100% polyester, with pleated sleeves, a ruffle at the waist, and a button closure. Techno stretch is a performance fabric in a tailored construction: the high polyester content creates a smooth, precise surface; the 5% elastane allows the slim fit to move with the body. The pleated sleeves add volume at the arm; the ruffle at the waist adds a fluid, gathered detail at the waist seam — a feminine construction element in a technical fabric. Made in Italy by LA HAINE INSIDE US.

Why This Jacket Is Different

• Ruffle Waist: A ruffle — a gathered, flowing strip of the same techno stretch fabric — at the waist seam of the jacket. The ruffle creates a fluid, gathered detail at the waist that contrasts with the slim, precise body of the techno stretch jacket above and below. In techno stretch, the ruffle has more body and structure than a ruffle in a fluid fabric — the polyester content giving the gathered strip a defined, structured quality rather than a soft, drooping one. The ruffle waist is a feminine construction element in a technical fabric — the contrast between the precision of the techno stretch and the gathered movement of the ruffle is the defining tension of the W5474.
• Pleated Sleeves: The sleeves are pleated — the techno stretch fabric gathered into deliberate folds at the sleeve, creating volume and texture along the arm. In techno stretch, the pleats are precise and structured — the polyester content holding the folds in place, the pleated surface catching light differently from the smooth techno stretch body.
• Techno Stretch: 95% polyester, 5% elastane — techno stretch is a performance fabric with a smooth, precise surface and a firm hand. The high polyester content (95%) creates a fabric that holds its shape, resists creasing, and maintains a clean, precise surface. The 5% elastane adds stretch and recovery, allowing the slim-fit jacket to move with the body without restricting movement or distorting the techno stretch surface. Unlike standard polyester (which is rigid), techno stretch has a performance quality — the fabric moves with the body while maintaining its precise surface.
• Slim Fit: The jacket follows the body closely — the techno stretch and 5% elastane allowing the slim fit to move with the body, the ruffle waist creating a defined waist detail within the slim silhouette.
• Full Lining: 100% polyester lining for ease of wear and a clean interior finish.
• Button Closure: A single button closure that keeps the techno stretch front panels in place when closed.
• Made in Italy: Techno stretch construction, pleated sleeve finishing, ruffle waist construction, and all finishing completed in Italy under LA HAINE INSIDE US's atelier standards.

The Moment You Put It On

The techno stretch is immediately smooth and precise — the high polyester content creating a clean, structured surface that holds its shape. The slim fit follows the body closely; the button closes the front with a single, clean click. The pleated sleeves add volume and texture along the arm — the techno stretch holding the pleated folds in place, the pleated surface catching light differently from the smooth body.

At the waist, the ruffle: a gathered strip of the same techno stretch, the fabric gathered into folds at the waist seam. In techno stretch, the ruffle has more body and structure than a ruffle in a fluid fabric — the polyester content giving the gathered strip a defined, structured quality. The W5474 is a jacket where the technical precision of the fabric and the gathered movement of the ruffle are in deliberate contrast.

The Art of Techno Stretch

Techno stretch is a category of performance fabric defined by its smooth, precise surface and its stretch-and-recovery properties. In the W5474, the techno stretch is 95% polyester, 5% elastane — the polyester content creating a fabric that holds its shape, resists creasing, and maintains a clean, precise surface; the elastane adding stretch and recovery. Unlike standard polyester (which is rigid and does not recover after stretching), techno stretch moves with the body and returns to its original shape. In a slim-fit jacket, the techno stretch allows the slim fit to follow the body without restricting movement or distorting the surface. The smooth, precise surface of the techno stretch amplifies the pleated sleeves and ruffle waist — the structured fabric giving both details more definition than a fluid or soft fabric would.

How to Wear It

• Button Closed, Slim: Close the button and wear the jacket as a slim, precise piece — the techno stretch body clean and structured, the pleated sleeves and ruffle waist visible.
• Over a Bodysuit: Wear over a fitted black bodysuit — the slim-fit techno stretch jacket as a structured layer, the ruffle waist creating a defined waist detail.
• With High-Waisted Trousers: Wear with high-waisted trousers — the slim-fit jacket with ruffle waist creating a complete, considered silhouette above the waistband.
• All Black: Combine with other black pieces — the techno stretch surface creates natural variation within an all-black palette, the pleated sleeves and ruffle waist adding texture and movement.

Care Instructions

• Machine wash cold, delicate cycle — the techno stretch is durable and machine washable; the ruffle and pleated sleeves require gentle handling to preserve their shape
• Do not tumble dry at high heat — hang to dry or tumble dry low to preserve the slim-fit shape and ruffle waist construction
• Iron on low heat if needed — the techno stretch responds well to light pressing; avoid high heat which can damage the polyester content
• Do not bleach
• Store hung to preserve the ruffle waist shape and pleated sleeve construction
