Press pause on everything you knew about the military jacket. No longer reserved solely for wearing over wind-blown boho dresses, this statement design will add structure to summer’s most low-key looks – tees and denim shorts included. Finish with simple tan accessories.
Red has been the colour du jour for several seasons now, commanding attention through subtle details and head-to-toe styling. Make a case for the latter with a military jacket thrown over free-flowing florals in the same stand-out shade, offsetting the eclectic ensemble with glimmering gold sandals.
Give your blazer a break – this season, the military trend is entering the nine-to-five agenda, offering a fashion-forward alternative to classic cover-ups. Everyone knows that a white blouse and tapered trousers make for a chic combination but it is the addition of soldier-like styles that transform your office attire into something altogether more impactful.
Need a new weekend uniform? This season, put your trust in the military jacket, layering it over camis and blue-wash boyfriend jeans (extra points if they comes with floral-print patches) for an off-duty outfit choice that epitomises effortless cool. To save the look from being considered too casual, swap sneakers for a pair of wedges.
A statement-maker in its own right, the military jacket packs a further punch when combined with other hero pieces. Put the theory into practice with a wide-leg jumpsuit, opting for structured stripes over anything too fussy. Add on a cross-body bag and white trainers for city break perfection.
