Desautels Twill Riding Jacket & Sweet Seersucker Blouse
The Desautels line of technical apparel is constructed of the finest fabrics from around the world but is designed and hand-sewn here in America. The Sweet Seersucker Blouse (shown in white/indigo stripe but also available in all-white stripe) is 100 percent cotton and offers the perfect touch of femininity with its ruffle front. Sizes 0-3; $220. The Desautels Riding Jacket (shown in black twill but also available in blue denim) is both elegant and casual, with just enough stretch to be comfortable in the ring and around town.
