Eva ThomasFrom a business sartorial statement to casual spring elegance, the jacket remains an unmistakable choice for a variety of occasions – it’s just a question of how to style it.
Seasonal focus: Silhouettes and materials in the foreground
The spring collections are dominated by models that reflect the current fashion sensibility – fluid, unencumbered cuts combined with precise construction and carefully selected materials.
Color palette: from pastel tones to timeless neutral shades
Pastel colors like powder pink, sky blue and mint green bring a gentle spring aesthetic, while subtle beige and cream tones offer understated elegance. This palette makes it easy to combine and adapt to different stylistic expressions.
Natural fabrics: a combination of comfort and sophistication
Linen and lightweight cotton are becoming the first choice, not only for their breathability but also for their ability to look relaxed and sophisticated at the same time. The texture of these materials further emphasizes their luxurious simplicity.
A new interpretation of the cut: oversized, but with a defined shape
Although oversized jackets have been in focus for several seasons, this spring sees the return of carefully shaped lines that emphasize the silhouette without losing its casualness. Long models with a slight waistline create a dose of subtle elegance, while a jacket in the form of a casual blazer becomes the basic element of a smart-casual wardrobe.
Details that make the difference
This season’s heightened fashion awareness is reflected in the carefully designed details: from buttons in gold and pearl tones to belts that add a sculptural effect to the silhouette. These subtle accents contribute to giving even the simplest model a dose of character.
How to style a jacket this season?
Sartorial elegance
Pair a waisted jacket with wide-cut trousers and classic lounges – a combination that never goes out of style, and this season it gets a refresh in the form of soft tones and airy materials.
Modern casual
An oversized blazer draped over a simple white tee and high-waisted jeans is the foundation of a smart-casual aesthetic. Add moccasins or leather sandals with thin straps for an added effect of sophisticated nonchalance.
Romantic approach
A pastel jacket in combination with a slip dress and block-heeled sandals combines femininity and modern lightness. An ideal option for spring evenings.
Minimalism with a touch of avant-garde
Wear a geometric cut jacket with a monochromatic combination and a striking accessory such as a metallic bag or sandals with graphic heels. This approach provides the possibility of a classic piece becoming a statement part of the outfit.
Regardless of style preference, the jacket remains one of the few pieces that has the power to redefine a wardrobe. This spring, it is worn with ease, but also with a thoughtful aesthetic that reflects the spirit of the season – unencumbered, but impeccably styled.
