Best Fall Jacket Trends for Women 2024

If we had to pick our top three best fall jackets, they'd definitely be the puffer, bomber, and wool blazer. Many of us likely have at least one of these staples in our wardrobe, but it's the perfect time to refresh our outerwear for the new season. Exciting fall jackets trends are on the horizon, blending fun styles with classic looks.

The fall 2024 runways introduced us to a range of fresh jacket designs, from eye-catching tailored pieces to chic metallic puffers. Designer collections are now hitting the store, and our go-to brands are joining in, too. House of Dagmar has released some stunning wool jackets, while Moose Knuckles unveils new quilted and puffy styles. Additionally, we're seeing bunnies, denim jackets, and shearling making waves in women's fashion.

Let's take a closer look at which jacket types are currently trending.

Puffer Jacket

Puffed styles are here to stay in the fashion world, and for good reason. They offer unmatched comfort, versatility, and ease of wear, making them a staple you won't want to miss out on. If you are up to refresh your wardrobe, don’t hesitate to add another puffer jacket to your collection.

Our top pick this season is the Shearling Puffer Jacket Cloud 3Q from Moose Knuckles. It not only provides excellent warmth but also boasts a snug fit and a stylish shearling hood trim, ensuring you stay both cozy and chic.

On the other hand, Duno brings some stylish options to the table as well, such as the Oversized Leatherette Down Jacket Peggie. This piece features a synthetic shell that mimics leather, giving you a trendy appearance without sacrificing comfort.

Bomber Jacket

Stroll through the new arrivals section of your favorite brands, and you'll come across a stylish bomber jacket. Much like the classic leather jacket, the bomber has seen a modern upgrade, now stripped down to its essential details. Simply pair it with jeans and trainers, and you've got the cool fall weekend outfit nailed. 

We particularly adore bombers from Moose Knuckles, especially the classic Quilted Bomber Jacket Toussaint.

The Double-sided quilted jacket Eaton Bunny by Moose Knuckles also features a clever bomber-like design, giving you both a cozy bunny side and a classy quilted look in one versatile piece.

If you were captivated by the Sopranos-inspired fall jackets for women earlier, you'd be excited to hear that designers are rolling out a variety of faux and upcycled fur styles for the current fall season. Sherpa is also making waves in the faux fur scene this season, so if a long shearling coat feels too much, check out the Sherpa hoodie Holland as a cozy alternative.

Quilted Jacket

Quilting has been making waves for the past couple of seasons, and this trend shows no signs of slowing down. 

A great example is the Metallic-finish padded jacket Bankhead that you can easily incorporate into your fall wardrobe for a bold, edgy look. Metallics are also in trend, by the way.

Looking for the perfect outerwear for going out? Moose Knuckles has precisely what you need. The Hybrid Jacket Naomi is perfect for those mild fall days. It boasts a nylon shell reminiscent of a vest, complemented by cotton sleeves, side inserts, and a stylish high collar.

Fitted Jacket

No matter the current fashion trends, one thing is clear: you can never have too many wool jackets. While plenty of stylish options exist, a great wool jacket opens up a never-ending array of chic outfit possibilities. This season's top jackets offer a fresh departure from the oversized looks we've embraced in recent years, featuring hourglass shapes and cinched waists that flatter the silhouette. If you want to experiment with this trend without adding anything new to your wardrobe, simply pull out your favorite blazer and cinch it with a belt for that tailored effect. 

However, if you're ready to invest in a perfectly fitted piece, take a look at the Cinched Wool Jacket from House of Dagmar—it's a standout choice.

Cropped Jacket

On those days when we want to embrace a more feminine and chic vibe, cropped jackets over knitted dresses are our go-to choice. A cropped puffer offers the best of both worlds, blending the protective features of a parka with the stylish appeal of a bomber jacket. 

Be sure to check out the Down puffer jacket Agate from Moose Knuckles' new collection—it proves that puffers can be flattering, too!

If you lean towards a more classic aesthetic, consider the Short Double Jacket from House of Dagmar. Crafted in neutral grey, it boasts a stylish shawl collar that adds an elegant touch to the ensemble.

Belted Jacket

Double-breasted silhouettes are all the rage this season, featuring stylish peacoats and trendy belted designs. While peacoats have a classic look reminiscent of autumn jackets traditionally worn by men, belted styles highlight the popular trend of fitted and cinched shapes. 

The Belted double jacket by House of Dagmar is a versatile piece made from wool, allowing you to wear it both belted and unbelted. Whether you prefer a straight, classic look or a more tailored chic style, the choice is yours.

If you're looking for a more versatile and sturdy option, consider the Gold-detail belted jacket Cambria from Moose Knuckles. Designed to brave harsh colds, it offers excellent protection against wind, rain, and other elements, ensuring you stay comfortable in tough conditions.

Wool Blazer

If you take a look at the fall/winter 2024 fashion trends, you'll notice that unique textures are really making waves. Styles like boucle, cable, and chunky knits, along with corduroy, are definitely in the spotlight. Wool might have a retro vibe, but its reimagined designs breathe new life into the vintage aesthetic with a fresh, modern twist. 

For instance, the Classic Wool Blazer from House of Dagmar beautifully combines two key trends—an eye-catching texture and a rich grey melange hue.

Check out another stylish piece—the Collarless Blazer from House of Dagmar. This chic blazer boasts a fitted waist, an elegant neckline, and a contrasting button fastening, making it ideal for date night or a sophisticated dinner. Pair it with tailored trousers or a sleek skirt to complete the look.

And don’t overlook the Tie-Front Wool Blazer by Erika Cavallini! With its fitted silhouette, sharp peak lapels, and adjustable laces, this blazer allows you to customize the fit to suit your body perfectly. How does that grab you?

Denim Jacket

This fall, denim is stealing the spotlight with various head-to-toe essentials, making it the perfect time for brands to refresh the classic blue-jean look with updated designs. From patchwork styles to double denim, there's an impressive range to explore, ensuring you'll find fashionable fall jackets that fit your wardrobe. Whether you're aiming for a casual off-duty vibe or seeking something polished for the office, the choices are sure to impress. 

Agolde's Oversized Vintage Denim Jacket Wayne stands out as a timeless piece that blends with both chic and relaxed outfits.

Agolde's Oversized Denim Jacket Charli features a shorter cut and a snugger fit, making it easy to pair with laid-back and casual outfits.

How to Pick a Fall Jacket

When you think about the clothes you wear most often in the fall, a fall jacket likely comes to mind immediately. Whether it's a puffer, shearling, denim, or wool, your choice should reflect both your figure type and your style. Let's explore the different body types and discover the trending fall jackets that will flatter your figure.

• Apple: You have a full abdomen, a large bust, but slim hips, legs, and arms. Our goal is to create a slimmer look for the abdomen, which means no for short, bulky jackets. The best choice would be a long jacket that reaches the knee or a single-breasted coat in midi or maxi length. Opt for a piece with a smooth texture, steer clear of loud horizontal quilting, and instead go for diagonal quilted patterns that help to elongate the figure.
• Hourglass: Your figure is well-proportioned; the waist, chest, and hips stand out well. If you have this body type, you're in luck—all types of popular fall jackets are flattering for you – from shortened voluminous to long and fitted. Make the most of it!
• Rectangle: Your figure is slim, but the waist does not stand out well. Our goal is to create volume in the chest and hips, accentuating the waistline. A short bomber jacket can be a fantastic choice, adding roundness to your silhouette. Opt for a long jacket with a flared bottom from the waist or an A-line silhouette for a flattering look. Another great option is to cinch your jacket with a belt to define the waist even more.
• Pear/Triangle: To balance a figure with the hips wider than the shoulders, focus on creating a correct proportion. Opt for a cropped bomber jacket to add volume to the top half and achieve a more harmonious silhouette. Alternatively, consider a short jacket featuring voluminous fur or a shearling collar for added depth. 
• Inverted Triangle: The shoulders appear broader than the hips in your figure. To create a balanced look, opt for a jacket with a long A-line silhouette that adds volume at the hip level. Choose jackets without bulky collars or hoods, as these features can draw undue attention to the shoulders.
• Oval/Plus-Size: If you have a plump figure with weight evenly distributed over the figure, choose your outerwear wisely. Opt for a long jacket or a coat made from fine-textured fabric to avoid adding unnecessary volume. A cocoon coat serves as the ideal outer layer for plus-size ladies. Steer clear of fur collars and hoods; minimizing drapery and extra embellishments will help create a slimmer appearance.
