FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for all seasons?
The boucle fabric offers a moderate weight, making it ideal for layering in spring, autumn, and cooler summer evenings. It may not provide sufficient warmth for harsh winter conditions as an outer layer but works well indoors or under a heavier coat.
How should I best care for the frayed edges?
To maintain the distinctive look of the frayed edges, machine wash on a gentle cycle, preferably in a mesh laundry bag. Avoid harsh detergents or vigorous scrubbing. Air drying is often best to prevent further fraying, or tumble dry on very low heat if permitted and remove promptly.
Can this jacket be worn for formal occasions?
While it has a sophisticated design, the frayed edges and the `Denim` material lean more towards smart-casual or business-casual settings rather than strictly formal events. It pairs perfectly with tailored trousers for a polished office look.
What material is the jacket made from?
This specific product variant is made from `Denim` material. Please note that other variants of this jacket by Roman may be made from `Polyester`. Always check the product description for the exact material composition of your specific garment.
Does the jacket have any closures?
No, this jacket features an `edge-to-edge open front`, meaning it does not have buttons, zippers, or hooks for closure. It is designed to be worn open as a stylish layering piece.
Is the jacket lined?
Yes, the jacket is `fully lined`, which contributes to a comfortable fit and a smooth drape over your clothing, enhancing its overall quality and feel.
How should I choose the right size?
The jacket is described as having a 'regular fit' and being 'true to size.' We recommend selecting your usual UK dress size. If you are between sizes, consider your layering preferences – size up for a looser fit over thicker garments, or stick to your size for a snugger fit.
Troubleshooting
Frayed edges becoming untidy or excessively loose.
Gently trim any excessively long or loose threads with sharp fabric scissors. Avoid pulling threads, which can unravel the fabric further. For future washes, consider using a delicate cycle or hand washing to minimize further fraying.
Jacket appearing wrinkled after washing.
Hang the jacket immediately after washing or drying. If wrinkles persist, use a garment steamer or iron on a low heat setting, ideally with a pressing cloth, to smooth them out. Avoid direct high heat.
Jacket feels stiff or loses its softness after washing.
This can sometimes occur with certain fabrics. Consider using a fabric softener during the wash cycle if allowed by the care label. Air drying can help maintain softness, and avoid over-drying in a machine.
Jacket does not fit as expected (too tight/loose).
Ensure you selected the correct size based on Roman's sizing guide, as the jacket is described as 'true to size.' If it consistently feels off, consider exchanging for a different size or adjusting your layering garments.

Care Instructions
Proper care will help maintain the jacket's luxurious feel and unique frayed edges:
- Washing: The jacket is `Machine Washable`. Always refer to the garment's care label for specific temperature settings and cycle recommendations. A gentle or delicate cycle is often recommended to protect the fabric and frayed details.
- Drying: Line dry to preserve shape and prevent excessive fraying. If using a tumble dryer, select a low heat setting and remove promptly to minimize wrinkles and wear on the frayed edges.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting. For best results and to protect the fabric, iron inside out or use a pressing cloth. Avoid direct high heat on the frayed edges.
- Special Care for Frayed Edges: Avoid harsh scrubbing or pulling on the frayed edges. If loose threads become too long, gently trim them with sharp fabric scissors rather than pulling.
