Faux leather has none of the give of hide. Cut from a pattern made for real leather, it ends up looking moulded onto the body.

Second Female cut the Seerie for the material itself. Clean through the body, with gathering at the seams so the cloth has somewhere to go when you move. Wide straps carry its weight. It holds a shape without standing away from you.

Black sand is black with warmth in it. That warmth takes the severity out of a material that can easily look hard. It is what makes the Seerie a top for daylight.

Fit. True to size.

Second Female is cut in Copenhagen to European sizing. Australian sizes are the same as UK sizes, so the UK column is your Australian size: a Second Female M is a UK and AU 10, an EU 38. The measurements below are the house's own, in centimetres, taken from the body rather than the garment.

Choosing between two sizes

Most Second Female styles are true to size. Fitted styles and structured fabrics are the exception, and there the house recommends the larger size. Relaxed shapes and knits with give can take the smaller one. Blazers and jackets want a little room across the shoulders and bust. Any style that runs differently is noted in its Fit line.

How to measure

Bust: around the fullest part, tape level across the back.
Waist: around the narrowest part, usually just above the navel.
Hip: around the fullest part, feet together.
Inseam: from the top of the inside leg down to the ankle.

Caring for Second Female

Wool, alpaca and mohair knits: hand wash, or a gentle wool cycle with wool detergent. Dry flat. Store folded, never on a hanger.

Leather: wipe with a damp cloth. Condition regularly so it does not dry out. Keep it away from heat and direct sun.

Cotton: wash cold and gently. Air dry to keep the shape and avoid shrinkage.

Denim: wash sparingly and inside out to protect the colour. Air dry.

For every other fabric, follow the care label sewn into the piece.

Wipe with a soft dry cloth. Keep it away from water and direct heat. A specialist leather conditioner once or twice a year, nothing else.
