I Cannot Wear This Jacket Style Outside the House Without Getting Compliments
At a time when our wardrobes can feel rather mundane and drab given the fact we’re not going out much these days (plus, it’s winter), along comes a feel-good trend that instantly adds a touch of fun and whimsy to our look—and it’s just what the doctor ordered. The fringe trend has had a huge resurgence this Fall/Winter season, thanks in part to designers from Bottega Veneta to Jil Sander who showcased the free-flowing detail all over the runways.
A fringe jacket is unquestionably one of the easiest ways to take on the trend. We’ve spotted the Western-inspired silhouette on fashion girls all over the globe. In fact, our very own Editor in Chief, Kat Collings, is a devout fan of the fringe jacket, professing that "It’s a compliment magnet! In a word, fringe is fun. I swear it amps up my personality by 25% and my introverted self appears… less so. I like that it’s always more or less in style. And who can’t help but shimmy and shake in a little fringe?”
So if you’re looking to liven up your look (and mood) right now, take a peek at some of our favorite fringe jackets on the market right now—and let the compliments come flowing in.
A black leather fringe jacket will never go out of style.
Pair this with chic black pants (like above) to add a polished touch.
For a modern take, perfect for the colder months try a puffer with fringe detail.
Throw on over a black ribbed knit dress and chunky boots for one cool winter look.
Shimmy down the street in style in this cool bomber jacket.
Up next, this unexpected coat is quietly taking Instagram by storm, and I’m obsessed.
