Wardrobe Staple Styles: The Denim Jacket

As the spring weather really begins to take hold over the next couple of months, we’re looking at new ways to diversify our wardrobes with some key transitional styles and outfits. For us, outerwear is one such component that can make our break any outfit and can certainly make all the difference in your springtime get-up.

For our latest feature, we’re discussing an iconic, trans-seasonal style, one that we’ll continue to swear by for its versatility and its inherently accessible nature. Coming in a variety of shapes and colours, the denim jacket is an absolute wardrobe must-have, not only because it can be worn practically the entire year round, but also because it can be styled with almost anything! We’re highlighting a handful of our favourites and recommending some chic and unique styling options for your return to the outside world…

The denim jacket has become a mainstay silhouette in Balenciaga’s recent seasonal showcases. They’ve popped up in a myriad of different colourways, washes and prints over the years, but the customarily generous shape and fit appears to be one ever-present feature. The Balenciaga Blue All-Over Logo Large Fit Denim Jacket is no exception to this rule, a logo-centric style with a slouchy, boxy fit, one that is typical of Balenciaga’s ultra-casual, streetwear aesthetic.

 

And it’s this vision we’ve attempted to realise with our pictured outfit, which features the Fluorescent Yellow Political Logo Large Fit T-Shirt and Black Languages Baseball Cap from Balenciaga and Givenchy’s Black Refracted Logo Sweat Pants to round out the look. It captures the effortlessness of off-duty style whilst retaining the adventurous detail and meticulous craftsmanship that characterises luxury fashion.

 

 

To continue that discourse on wardrobe staples, you simply don’t get much more classic than our latest style: Saint Laurent’s Black Classic Denim Jacket. With its monotonal colour palette and bronze metal hardware, it’s the picture of modern sophistication and elegance. The refined design approach allows for it to subtly adapt to different dress codes, opening it up for consideration in a variety of environments and situations. To really emphasise its versatility, we’ve styled ours with two different outfits. In one outfit, it accompanies the Off-White Embroidered Tunic and Black Coated Skinny Jeans for a monotonal look that would certainly be welcome at any event requiring smart-casual attire. Whereas the second look, which showcases Saint Laurent’s Hawaiian Print Short Sleeve Shirt, is brought to life with an injection of colour that favours the slightly more flamboyant. We’re picturing evenings out at your favourite bars and clubs, where dressing with flair and unique personality is strongly encouraged.
