The situation is now changing: the versatile jacket is facing nostalgic competition from the feminine bouclé or tweed jacket. These models from bygone times are soft, feminine and have a flattering short cut and offer a refreshing alternative to the current, oversized blazer, which is more reminiscent of traditional men’s wardrobes. Find out everything about this trend here, how you can combine it stylishly and where you can find the right pieces.
The fashion trend: A short history of the bouclé jacket
If you immediately think of Chanel when you see these jackets, you are absolutely right. The first bouclé jacket in this form was designed by Coco Chanel in 1954 as the “Little Black Jacket” and, like the little black dress, was to become an indispensable part of every modern woman’s wardrobe. It functions as an everyday uniform, but impresses with its elegance and femininity. In addition, the high-quality fabric is usually very robust and crease-free, so that even hectic days ensure an impeccable outfit.
Over the years, the jacket has been reinterpreted, rediscovered and reinvented time and again – with varying cuts and lengths, changed sleeves and always new colors and fabric structures. Today we enjoy this variety of designs of the lady-like jacket, which has the right model for every taste. No matter whether you prefer classic elegance, extravagant details or colorful, preppy or minimalist designs. If you are not yet convinced, the following styling tips will certainly inspire you to wear the elegant vintage jacket.
These looks are great examples of a casual everyday look. They show how blouclé jackets can add an elegant touch to jeans and baggy shirts. Especially in combination with light denim fabrics, the soft jackets in cool colors and textures are an additional eye-catcher.
