This Is How Zara Girls Wear Their Bomber Jackets
Not only is Zara a place we frequent for the most on-trend and affordable products, it's also a shopping destination we look to for some of the most inventive styling tips around. If there is one trend in particular that has proven its dominance for multiple seasons now, it's the bomber jacket. Bomber jackets quickly went from a must-have item to a closet staple in a matter of months, and we aren't the only ones who caught wind of that development.
Zara hopped on the bomber jacket trend quickly, and it has now taken the product and given it new life. Even amid its own section dedicated solely to the jacket, you will not see two of them styled the same way, and that is something to take note of. Some are draped off the shoulders over a velvet slip dress, and others are worn in a cropped version atop an oversize poplin shirt with wide-leg pants. When we say the styling techniques here are endless, we mean it, and you're about to see a few of our favorites here, each of which are more perfect for fall than the next.
Keep reading to see (and shop!) the coolest ways to wear your bomber jackets this fall, according to Zara.
Velvet slip dresses in particular are recommended here, and so is wearing your bomber off your shoulders. This simple styling tip will take your look from zero to 100 in a flash.
Zara Bomber Jacket With Pockets ( $50 ) + Patch Dress with Straps ( $30 ) + Heel Detail Ankle Boots ( $70 )
Your waist might easily get lost amid an oversize shirt and wide-leg pants, so when testing out this look, we recommend wearing a bomber that has elastic at the bottom, or even one that is cropped. That way your waistline will still be accentuated.
Zara Cropped Bomber Jacket ( $70 ) + Poplin Shirt ( $70 ) + Trousers With Golden Side Buttons ( $100 )
Layer your turtleneck underneath a knit maxi dress for the ultimate autumn effect. Adding a bomber jacket on top is the perfect third piece needed to complete your look.
Zara Quilted Bomber Jacket ( $70 ) + Turtleneck Sweater ( $30 ) + Shimmer Thread Dress ( $70 )
Hoodies have finally made the sartorial comeback we've been waiting for, and our favorite way to wear them is layered underneath a jacket—a bomber, to be exact. Leather leggings add a sleek and unexpected edge.
Zara Denim Bomber Jacket With Back Print ( $70 ) + Ungendered Sweatshirt ( $36 ) + Leather Effect Leggings ( $36 )
There's nothing cooler than a graphic tee and leather. Worn together, the duo can do no wrong, but the addition of a pink bomber jacket is just the surprising twist this outfit needs.
Zara Glossy Oversized Bomber Jacket ( $30 ) + Text T-Shirt ( $30 ) + Quilted Mini Skirt ( $36 )
Go full '90s with a crop top and low-rise denim. Although the look might feel a bit daring, the result is a laid-back and casual outfit that screams, I own the whole effortless undone but totally chic look. Know what we mean?
Matching sets are always a hit, especially when done with nothing but the most forward pieces around (e.g., a bomber, culottes, and a velvet bodysuit).
Zara Pleated Bomber Jacket ( $40 ) + Velvet Bodysuit ( $20 ) + Pleated Trousers ( $40 )
