Trend of the week: Must-have jacket

Pretty and practical — meet this season’s must-have jacket.

INSPIRATION

Just because the mercury is dropping, doesn’t mean your style cred should too.

This season’s shearling and sheepskin jackets combine the perfect proportions of fashion and function — body hewn silhouettes with warm but whittled fur linings. Look runwayready in Belstaff, Michael Kors and Acne; or take the high street in equally style savvy options from Mango, H&M or New Look. Snug and sexy, who knew?

STYLE NOTES

Layer a sheepskin aviator jacket over a languid maxi dress and ankle boots for a boy meets girl look.

Balance bulky shearling with long and lean separates to keep those proportions in check.

An oversized sheepskin jacket makes a perfect partner for a 60s shift and knee boot combo.

Create a 3-D look by combining shearling with complimentary textures like cashmere, suede and coated denim.
