The major trend, offering relaxed, voluminous fits with wide lines and dropped shoulders for nonchalant sophistication, sometimes with quilted details or shearling.
For 2025, shoulder-padded leather jackets are trending as sharp, powerful staples, moving from ’80s excess to tailored elegance, especially in oversized bomber, blazer, or biker styles, featuring rich colors like burgundy and deep browns, often with slouchy silhouettes and modern details like quilting or shearling for a blend of retro cool and contemporary sophistication.
It’s so easy to style — with jeans, pants, leggings. It just gives “this look”.
Today, I’m working pairing it with knee-high riding boots and leggings. For more chic and classy detail, I used a neck scarf from Chanel. Little details often help to put the look together. What do you think?
