Sida Bolero | Marcella

Sida is a sheer mesh bolero jacket, cropped to 17" (43 cm) with an open front and 30" (75.5 cm) long sleeves that gather into fitted wrist cuffs. Cocktail hour won't see her coming. Volume runs the length of the puff sleeve and collects at the cuff, while a gathered hem at the back gives Soft Luxe Mesh (100% polyester) its sculptural shape. The open front leaves the look beneath on display, so she works as a layer rather than a cover-up: a slip dress reads finished, a strapless gown gains coverage without weight, and a black cocktail dress picks up an edge. In burgundy mesh, the colour sits deep enough for evening and soft enough to carry daylight. Made for cocktail hour, wedding guest dressing and black-tie evenings, and just as considered over a tank and tailored trousers for dinner after work. She is one of the edgy minimalist layers a capsule wardrobe leans on when an outfit needs one more thing, which is exactly how our reviewer wore hers: over a dress that had been waiting for the right piece. Fit: true to size with no stretch and an open, relaxed cut through the body and shoulder. The cropped 17" length sits at the natural waist on most heights, so it lands cleanly over high-waisted skirts and full gowns alike. Available XS through XXL.
