A Rather Splendid Piece of Military Theatre

Right then. Here's the thing about this vintage Sergeant mess dress jacket: it's the sort of garment that makes you feel fractionally more important than you probably are, which is precisely the point of a mess dress jacket, wouldn't you say. One hundred percent pure wool in a glorious scarlet red, with a properly commanding black collar and cuffs, topped off with gold plated insignia that's seen rather better days but all the more fabulous for it.

Why Choose Our Vintage Sergeant Mess Dress Jacket

Authentically Aged Wool: Crafted from genuine wool, this jacket carries the weight and warmth of proper military tailoring without any of the faffing about with synthetic nonsense.

Showstopper Colour Combination: That scarlet and black pairing isn't just bold, it's absolutely utterly fetching in a way that screams military heritage without needing to shout about it.

Period Correct Detailing: Gold plated insignia and traditional construction mean this is the real McCoy, not some hastily assembled costume piece.

Splendidly Versatile: Whether you're attending something frightfully formal or simply fancy making a statement at the next gathering, this jacket delivers.

Product Details

Composition: 100 percent wool throughout

Colour: Scarlet red with black collar and cuffs

Insignia: Vintage gold plated military insignia

Condition: Vintage authentic wear and patina

Occasion: Formal dress, fancy dress, mess events, or anyone brave enough to wear it casually

This is precisely the sort of jacket that doesn't come round very often. It's marvellously made, properly handsome, and rather likely to be the most talked about thing at whatever do you wear it to. Best not dally.

THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS

This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.

SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.

Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.

At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.

We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!

RETURNS

You have 14 days to return items.

Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!

🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.

Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!

Sostter independent brands marketplace — discover extraordinary makers from around the world

Hello, we are Sostter....

Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?

We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect. Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience.

Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently. Explore our British makers, discover sustainable brands, browse women-led businesses, find the perfect gift for her, or simply wander through our new arrivals and see what finds you.

This is just the beginning. But enough about us — read all about us, or step inside and see what catches your imagination.

A Curated Marketplace for Independent Ethical Brands

Discover our world of independent brands, conscious design, and purposeful creativity — all in one place.

Sostter is more than a marketplace. We're here to inspire a more thoughtful way to shop — one that celebrates the makers, the dreamers, and the independent brands doing things properly. Every brand on Sostter has been individually vetted for its originality, quality, and values. From sustainable fashion and ethical homeware to handmade jewellery and design-led gifts — all brought together in one considered space. Browse by location, by purpose, or simply wander and see what finds you. Want to sell with us? We'd love to hear from you.
