List of products (clothes)
There's no real context, I'm afraid. It's simply a list of different items of clothing produced by a company and amongst the various items (trousers, shorts, skirts etc.) is:
The '(loose) coat, (loose) jacket' translation won't work here - it's just too vague . . .
My working version is 'lightly/loosely-tailored top' - but I hope that one of you fashion warriors out there will have a better/more professional solution?
Thanks in advance! :-)

jacket
if it is the first of pictures... wdzianko is a bit old fashioned word, on the other hand it could be used to describe an item for children
I feel though that 90% of people would call it "żakiet" in Polish, and I think jacket is equivalent

Nie jestem jednak pewien, czy Stanisławski ma w tym wypadku rację.
