Vogue's Guide to the Best Travel Jackets for Every Climate and Style

Vogue has published a comprehensive guide to travel jackets, emphasizing the importance of versatility and practicality for jet-setters. The article categorizes recommended jackets into seven distinct styles: denim, utility, leather, trench, sporty, lightweight, and weather-proof. Each category highlights specific products from various brands, including Jacques, 90s, Barn, Redley, Banana Republic, Proenza Schouler, Citizens of Humanity, Baraccuta, Polo Ralph Lauren, J.Crew, and Barbour. The guide stresses portability, suggesting lightweight materials like cotton, nylon, and linen for easy packing, while also acknowledging the need for heavier options like leather or denim for colder climates. Trench coats and raincoats are recommended as essential investments for unpredictable weather. The article also notes the rise of sporty styles, such as coach jackets, which have transitioned from athletic wear to fashion staples. For those seeking comfort during flights, lightweight jackets with funnel necks and bubble hems are suggested as alternatives to travel scarves. The guide aims to help travelers choose jackets that serve dual purposes, whether for in-transit comfort or as stylish additions to vacation wardrobes.
