Spring is in the air, and like clockwork, I have no idea how to get dressed for the day ahead. The biggest question mark during the transitional period between seasons is what on earth do I wear as outerwear? It’s too warm (finally!) for a down jacket but still too chilly for a lightweight denim or canvas coat. Thankfully, two of our favorite style stars have pointed us in the right direction: the black leather bomber jacket.
Recently, Gigi Hadid and Chloë Sevigny were spotted in Paris sporting oversize styles of the “just right” outwear of the moment. Hadid nailed the model-off-duty look in an Alexander Wang design, while Sevigny stepped out at in a head-to-toe look by Saint Laurent. Designer versions can get pretty pricey, but the black bomber jacket is popular at a wide range of retailers year-round.
Keep scrolling to see how Gigi Hadid and Chloë Sevigny styled their outerwear, and take a closer look at their exact jackets. Of course, we’ve included several more excellent black bombers for your consideration starting at $105! Stay cool out there.
