The Chicest Jackets To See You Through Fall
Layering season is upon us – and a great jacket is key to nailing your cold-weather wardrobe. From elevated bombers to leather and suede staples, these are the styles to know now
The bomber jacket
Few items add instant laid-back cool to an outfit like a bomber jacket – and this season’s best iterations play with proportion and scale. Sacai’s padded-shell bomber fuses timeless style with streetwear cool – and pairs perfectly with everything from lace-trimmed slip dresses to cargo pants for an easy, everyday look. For something classic with a twist, consider Rick Owens’ cropped ‘Secchia’ design, which has voluminous gathered sleeves that completely modernize the shape. Style yours with a lightweight knit, tailored pants and ankle boots. While bombers are often seen as daywear, pick one with enough polish and it will work perfectly for the office, too. See Bottega Veneta’s elegant jacket, which comes in green cotton-twill with a smart intrecciato leather collar and buttoned cuffs.

The elevated statement jacket
From ornate jacquards and brocades to eye-catching colors, tassels and appliqués, an elevated statement jacket is all you need to make an outfit sing this season. Róhe’s ‘Pankou’ jacket stands as one of fashion’s most coveted pieces – anchored by an exquisite pankou closure, a traditional fastening rooted in Chinese sartorial heritage. The mustard-yellow iteration transitions seamlessly into fall, while the crimson version delivers the ultimate statement. Style yours with clean-lined separates, such as tailored pants for day and an elegant midi skirt for evening. When it comes to day jackets that offer warmth as temperatures drop, Dries Van Noten puts a decorative spin on the classic puffer, crafting its version from contrasting floral jacquards that offset its sporty funnel neck. And if you’re looking for a tailoring classic with a twist, Comme des Garçons’ blazer is detailed with sculptural folds for a directional take on corsages. Wear it to the office with a pleated midi skirt or tailored pants.

The leather jacket
A leather jacket is a perennial favorite that, if chosen wisely, will reemerge year after year. The trick is to focus less on trends and, instead, invest in a silhouette that best suits your personal style. A contemporary take on classic aviator styles, Khaite’s jacket has a shearling collar and a glossy finish that will add polish to off-duty outfits. Meanwhile, Róhe’s ‘Gio’ jacket in relaxed chocolate leather feels a touch more casual and is a dream pairing for denim. Coveting something you can wear from day to night? Look to Nour Hammour’s ‘Nera’ style from our NET SUSTAIN edit, which looks chic cinched over dresses, tailoring and denim alike.

The suede jacket
A suede jacket is one of those pieces where it doesn’t really matter what you wear underneath – it will make your outfit instantly chic regardless. Worried about ruining the fabric? Invest in a good protector spray and we guarantee it will last for years to come. Evoking the fit and feel of vintage styles, Saint Laurent’s jacket comes in a slouchy, oversized shape that looks as cool thrown over a mini dress as it does with white denim. If your style is a touch more romantic, reach for Chloé’s cropped style – the soft, blouson shape and tan shade work beautifully with a silk camisole and jeans.

The barn jacket
A chic countryside staple that has become a favorite among the street-style set too, the barn jacket will add an effortless edge to your fall wardrobe. Take Toteme’s ‘Country’ jacket, for example, which comes in waxed organic cotton canvas with a contrasting corduroy collar and utilitarian pockets. The relaxed fit works perfectly with a cashmere sweater and blue jeans on weekends. Elsewhere, Nili Lotan elevates the style with its ‘Kedem’ jacket in camel suede that makes it smart enough to wear with a crisp shirt and a pencil skirt to the office.
