Delara Doubleface Coat
A long, quiet coat that lets the knitwear house prove it can scale its softness into tailoring.
Story & heritage
Although Iris von Arnim is known first for knitwear, the brand has complemented its knit collections with woven and dress lines since 1990. Delara is important because it shows how that expansion still serves the house's original codes: softness, tactility and a restrained silhouette.
On the brand's bestseller pages, Delara appears as one of the standout outerwear pieces. It reads as the coat version of the label's cashmere philosophy — polished, practical and intentionally understated.
Materials & craft
Official copy describes Delara as a doubleface coat made from a cashmere-wool blend. The listed construction details are lapel collar, dropped shoulders, front button closure, corozo buttons, straight silhouette, knee-length fit, side seam pockets and a back slit.
Unlike the Italian-made cashmere knits, the official page states this coat is made in China. The doubleface build is still the core point: it gives Delara its clean drape and smooth, unfussy surface.
How to choose & style
Delara is strongest over the brand's own light knits — it has enough length and quiet volume to frame slim layers without feeling severe. Let it hang open for daytime ease or button it up to emphasise the straight column.
Chocolate and gravel keep the coat aligned with Iris von Arnim's muted palette. Avoid over-accessorising it; the appeal is the smooth, expensive simplicity.
