Lady Jackets Shrink for Fall as Street Style Set Styles Cropped Silhouettes Five Ways
This fall, the classic lady jacket has been reimagined with intentionally smaller silhouettes, becoming a major trend in outerwear, especially embraced by street style enthusiasts during fashion month. Denim was a popular complement. Vogue's executive fashion director, Lisa Aiken, styled Kallmeyer's gilded jacquard jacket for daytime with wide-leg blue jeans and black pumps. Meanwhile, Chioma Nnadi from British Vogue opted for a pink lady jacket paired with a denim midiskirt and lace-up flats. In Paris, an off-duty model showcased a black version with straight-leg jeans and elbow-length leather gloves. For a polished look, a black satin lady jacket with tailored trousers and sculptural accessories serves as a modern power suit. Nnadi's powder pink jacket over a mermaid-hem skirt and Aiken's gold-foil jacket with relaxed jeans rounded out the styles, alongside Dior's floral lady jacket.
