Earth-Friendly Jacket Edit
Structured staples for your Autumnal wardrobe and beyond
Structured staples for your Autumnal wardrobe and beyond
As you may have noticed by now, I’m big on carrying all elements of my wardrobe over from season to season whenever it’s possible: I love light jackets for layering year-round and I’m happy to invest in pieces I’ll be wearing not only several seasons a year— but for as long as I possibly can. The higher the quality of the fabric and the more structured the piece, the more life I’ll ultimately get out of the item.
After my first winter in Los Angeles this past year, I found that it also feels fun to have a couple of pieces dedicated to chillier nights that remain different from my all-year wardrobe, starting with something unique like the deadstock vintage-inspired jacket below. Dressing for fall and winter has always been my favorite, so I really enjoyed putting this roundup together— I hope you love these sustainably and ethically made jackets and consider adding one to your closet.
Reformation Deadstock Fitzroy Jacket, $278
A vegan alternative to a fur jacket, this formal cropped coat from Reformation is made of deadstock fabric (a material that otherwise would have gone to waste).
DÔEN Carmel Jacket, $298
Made in the USA of 100% cotton canvas, the Carmel Jacket from DÔEN is the perfect easy transitional throw-over style, perfect for layering with sweaters on chilly evenings, or hanging over your shoulders as an effortless accessory.
