Returning to Next’s Black Velvet Sequin Embellished Jacket, customers have praised its design and versatility. One shopper commented: “Lovely understated sparkly top. Looks good fastened and good undone as a cardigan. It feels soft and cosy yet looks glamorous.”
Another customer shared: “Classy matte sequin jacket! I’ll get so much more wear out of this because the sequins are matte not shiny. It’s well made and feels premium. Beautiful fit from the petite range, good length on the body and sleeves, as well as narrower shoulders.”
A third customer expressed: “I was very pleased with this jacket, very smart. Lightweight enough to wear under a coat on a winter night. Fitted well, went very nicely with my dress.”
However, some feedback indicated that the jacket might be quite cropped, even in tall sizes. One shopper noted: “Beautiful jacket – bought the ‘Tall’ and it was still very cropped, but it is super to wear, and great to add a touch of sparkle!”.
Another customer had to return the item due to sizing issues, stating: “It was lovely but returned as it was too small.”
