- Shortened. Such models are combined with trousers, skirts, jeans and even shorts. They are sewn from both light and denser fabrics, a short jacket can be chosen for any time of year. It is these products that are distinguished by the maximum variety, therefore they attract the attention of women the most. With the help of such a style, you can highlight the waist line, emphasize the hips.
- Classic women's jackets, fashionable in 2024. A distinctive feature of the models is minimalism, thanks to which you can create a variety of outfits. The classic style of a women's jacket is distinguished by restraint, rigor, but does not look boring.
- Elongated. Stylish jackets of this type go well with trousers and jeans. Due to the large selection of materials, they can be worn both for a sport-chic look and for evening wear. Often, this style has no sleeves and resembles a vest, and can also be made as a jacket-dress. Visually, the models increase height and lengthen legs.
A fashionable women's jacket in 2024 should be elegant and feminine, so you should give preference to smooth lines, asymmetry, prints, and delicate shades.
As in the previous season, oversized jackets and blazers remain fashionable. Some people find them a bit strange, while others consider them an integral part of their wardrobe. A girl in such a jacket can feel free, stylish, and confident. The style is well suited for creating a casual look.
This year, fashion trends are so diverse that it is quite difficult to choose the ideal option. Single- and double-breasted jackets, with long or ¾ sleeves, abundant decor - all this can be seen in the collections of famous designers. Collarless models have become very popular, suitable for various styles and images, they can rightfully be considered universal.
Designers create jackets for women using various materials, among which the most popular are leather (genuine, eco), linen, denim, cashmere, silk, satin, cotton, tweed, even lace. Thanks to such a variety, it is possible to choose a winter or summer jacket taking into account personal preferences and fashion trends. Light natural fabrics, such as linen, silk, and cotton, are well suited for summer. These materials allow air to pass through, allowing the skin to “breathe,” and are often used to create everyday and business models. Demi-season options are sewn from denim, satin, thin cashmere, and wool. The denim option is typical for sport chic and casual, while satin fabric allows you to create more elegant items. Cashmere retains heat well and is ideal for bad weather. This material is mainly used for winter, as well as tweed.
When choosing a jacket made of one fabric or another, you should consider the advantages as well as the disadvantages:
- Linen is pleasant for the body in hot weather, does not turn yellow after washing or long-term wearing, the fabric does not electrify, is durable, allows the skin to breathe, is resistant to fungi, bacteria, and does not form "pilling". But it has its drawbacks: the material wrinkles, is difficult to iron, and after washing, a thing made from it may shrink.
- Lace used in the manufacture of jackets and coats gives the products an elegant look, adds femininity, elegance, it is quite durable, does not wrinkle, "breathes" well, the natural material will not cause allergies. But it is difficult to care for, special care is required when wearing, because the threads can stretch, the mesh often catches on everything, breaks.
- Cashmere is warm, light, and comfortable to wear. It is easy to care for. The material can be washed frequently, it does not attract dust, small debris, and does not accumulate static electricity. But the price of a cashmere jacket is quite high, and moths may start in it.
- Tweed and wool have the same disadvantages. But the fabrics are natural and warm. Tweed is quite durable and wear-resistant. The same cannot be said about wool fabric. It can also prickle, become shiny when worn for a long time, and cause allergies.
- Satin or silk jackets look very beautiful. Natural fabrics are breathable, hypoallergenic, and do not fade in the sun. But at the same time, things made from them are expensive and require careful handling.
- A leather jacket is very stylish. It will last a long time if you treat the material properly. The product is easy to care for, and it fits well due to its elasticity. The disadvantage of leather is its high price; the material may fade if exposed to the sun for a long time.
The variety of fabrics allows you to find a product to suit every taste. You can easily choose a women's jacket not only by season, but also by style. Both calm, single-color fabrics and materials with active prints are in fashion.
Popular colors
Fashionable women's jackets in monochromatic tones are at the peak of popularity. Since femininity and sophistication are in fashion, it is worth paying attention to delicate nude shades. Beige, ivory, white, mint, coral, classic gray with its wide palette (silver, steel, slate, mouse, marengo, wet asphalt, gray-green) are well suited. Light shades harmoniously combine with spring and summer images.
In winter and autumn, you can choose deeper, richer tones. Royal blue, noble dark chocolate, and almost all varieties of green remain in fashion. Wine shades of red (burgundy, garnet, cherry), and classic scarlet are suitable for evening, bright looks. Jackets can be either plain or printed.
If calmer monochrome fabrics are typical for business style, then when creating everyday outfits you can not limit yourself in anything. Today, small patterns, abstraction, geometric prints are in fashion, so you should not refuse stripes, checks. The latter also harmonizes well with the business style, and the pattern can be both large and small. Fashionable women's jackets with floral motifs do not leave the covers of magazines. The plant pattern looks feminine, emphasizes the sophistication, subtlety of nature. It is the floral print that is ideal for spring and summer.
Trends of the season
In addition to nude and pastel shades, white jackets are in fashion. This is the trend of 2024. The classic basic tone matches the entire color palette, refreshes the image and can be present in outfits of any style direction. A fashionable white jacket will suit women of different ages, it can be worn for a walk with friends, to the office or even to a formal event. In the latter case, it should be made of satin, natural silk or lace. A white linen jacket is suitable for a casual look, and a strict style made of suit fabric can be worn for work.
Another trend that fashion favors is the military style. Such styles of jackets reflect the image of confident and purposeful girls well. Such clothes are comfortable and practical, while having their own unique chic and “zest”. Jackets are somewhat reminiscent of a military uniform, but are as multifaceted as possible, since they have absorbed several trends at once. Distinctive features of the styles can be shoulder straps, zippers, a large number of buttons and, of course, color. This style is characterized by such shades: khaki, swamp, gray, brown, blue, olive.
For the most daring fashionistas, designers offer beautiful summer and spring (autumn) options in bright colors (coral, turquoise, orange).
The checkered jacket is another trend of the season. This print is so diverse that it is used by designers everywhere. The most popular options are:
- Houndstooth. The check is deformed and has a sharp angle, the pattern combines black and white threads. One of the adherents of this print was the inimitable Coco Chanel. She very often wore a checkered jacket and popularized the pattern in the 30s.
- Vichy check. It is two-colored, in the classic version it combines white and pink, also known as “gingham”. The print is often used in the Provence style.
- Plaid. Many people know it as “tartan”, it is an interweaving of twill threads of different colors. The most recognizable check is in the Burberry collections. The classic Royal Stewart version belongs to the Queen of Great Britain.
- Prince of Wales check. Often called "Windsor". The pattern combines several options at once: houndstooth, which forms large and small squares alternating with each other.
For summer, designers offer rich red shades that go well with white shirts and simple T-shirts. For romantic natures, it is worth choosing bright blue, mint, pink tones. The main thing is not to be afraid to experiment. Rich colors go well with abstract prints, but can also be monochromatic, since they are self-sufficient in themselves. The best demi-season jackets and blazers of 2024 are presented in brown, olive, red and silver tones. You can also choose a classic black color.
Trends concern not only prints or styles, but also ways of wearing. Jackets worn on the naked body are currently in fashion. Elongated models are well suited for these purposes. Having chosen this option, it is necessary to emphasize the waistline with a belt. Kimono-style items have also become a real hit, they have a slightly loose cut and are very comfortable to wear. Nude, pastel, gray, as well as classic white and black colors are suitable, for the especially bold, the red option is acceptable.
Design and decor
Classic cut jackets have a minimalist design. Their characteristic element is the lapels. The length can be either shortened or extended. They have virtually no decor, with the exception of one or two rows of buttons, as well as patch flaps on the sides.
The jacket is often found in street style looks. Street fashion dictates its own rules, and a characteristic feature of such products is their large width. They are as free as possible, so they are comfortable to wear. Oversized jackets are combined with jeans, complemented with wide belts, and worn unbuttoned. The print itself often serves as a decor.
Sport chic also did not bypass jackets. Here the decor can be brightly expressed, so rhinestones, rough zippers, large buttons of metallic shades are often used. Lycra and mesh are used as fabrics. Often such jackets resemble the famous bombers.
If the jacket is made in a casual style, then its decor is also minimal, the emphasis is mainly on the fabric and its texture. Due to the small number of decorative elements, for example, buttons, metallized fabrics, such models can be worn both to work and for a walk with friends. The hit of the season are fashionable leather jackets with rivets, lantern sleeves, deliberately highlighted zippers. Patent leather products look exquisite and unusual. Leather goes well with many styles, and jackets made of it go with skirts and dresses, as well as jeans and trousers.
Spring and many models of summer jackets are often decorated with embroidery, beads, appliqués, which makes the image brighter and more memorable. Also, summer 2024 jackets are often complemented with lace, but basically their highlight is the print. For the warm season, you can safely choose checkered jackets, shortened versions of bright colors, models with a floral pattern.
Creating a stylish image
Thanks to the variety of styles this season, you can wear almost any clothes with a jacket. Jeans are considered a universal option, they will suit even a strict classic product. Short leather jackets look great with lush tulle skirts, and go well with elongated shorts. Fitted jackets can be worn with dresses and trousers. Elongated models go well with shorts, culottes and floor-length skirts.
To avoid overloading the look, it is important to combine things correctly. It is worth wearing plain items under the jacket, for example, simple T-shirts, blazers and tops. The brighter the jacket itself and its decor, the simpler the item underneath should be. It is important that it does not protrude beyond the jacket in length. You should also pay attention to the neckline, the best options are a semicircle or V-shaped.
With the help of a jacket, you can create the most fashionable images. In summer, it can become the main part of the wardrobe. A bright collarless jacket will look very stylish in combination with a simple white T-shirt and denim shorts. In autumn, it is worth giving preference to calmer and neutral shades. A good option for a casual look will be a nude jacket in combination with dark culottes.
Another important aspect is accessories. Business style goes well with pumps and square bags. Casual sport chic allows the use of sneakers, ankle boots, and shopper bags. For casual, flat ballet flats and a casual messenger bag are the ideal option. You can combine different textures, play with the palette, and not be afraid to experiment.
