FANTASY SHOPPING . . .

Are you the sort of woman whose life involves having a small dog (whippet), small hand-bag (Anya Hindmarch), tight pencil skirt (Vivienne Westwood), high heels (Manolo Blahnik), taking lunch (Aubergine), expensive underwear (La Perla) driving a convertible (Aston Martin Vantage Volante, Prince of Wales specification) and having lovers that adore you? Then this is the jacket for you, in divine satin with fake fur collar plunging to indecent depths. It was inspired by the film Belle de Jour with Catherine Deneuve, a chic, feminine woman if ever there was one. Wear it with a knowing smile, and leave a trail of Dolce e Gabbana perfume and broken hearts in your wake.

Plein Sud satin jacket with fake fur collar in colour shown only, pounds 400, from Whistles branches, Harrods and Harvey Nichols.
