Jacket and Dress Pairings to Try This Season

Terry Moon

It can be challenging to find the ideal combination of dress and jacket that will enhance your overall silhouette. That's why I have created this new article to guide you on how to pair jackets with dresses for the perfect look.

 

Denim Jacket

To begin with, let's consider a simple example. A denim jacket is a flexible fashion essential that can be paired with nearly any dress. Ideal for informal occasions or for providing some extra warmth to your summer outfits. Some great combinations include flowy midi and maxi dresses as well as t-shirt dresses.

Leather jackets

A leather jacket is an ideal way to bring a touch of edginess to your dresses, whether you're embracing a full-on rock chick style or simply looking to infuse a hint of toughness into your outfits. Combine it with soft, flowing, feminine dresses to establish a striking contrast between sturdy and delicate fabrics.

Blazers

For a more polished appearance, consider incorporating a blazer into your outfit. A blazer can complement a variety of dresses, such as shift or sheath styles for a professional ensemble. To add a unique touch, pair a boyfriend-style blazer with a fitted dress, or cinch your blazer with a belt to alter the silhouette.


Trench coat

Trench coats are ideal for transitioning between seasons, elevating the elegance of both formal and casual ensembles. To style your trench coat, opt for a dress of similar length underneath. For a blend of casual and formal aesthetics, pair your trench coat with a sweater or t-shirt dress along with sneakers. Alternatively, complement the sophistication of your trench coat by coordinating it with your dress's formality.


Peacoat

Wearing a peacoat can add a touch of 60s retro style to your outfit. Experiment by pairing it with a slightly above-the-knee dress and knee-high boots.

Shacket

Shackets, which are a blend of shirts and jackets, have been popular for several seasons and are an excellent choice for injecting a casual touch into your outfit. Experiment with combining formal and casual pieces for a unique style.
