Fall 2025 Jackets: Suede, Cropped Trenches and Leather Bombers Lead the Retail Edit

Editors are turning runway cues into focused shopping guides for new outerwear hitting shelves.

Overview

  • Suede is identified as the defining fabric of the season across jackets, handbags and shoes, prized for transitional warmth and a patina that improves with wear.
  • Cropped trench coats update the classic with waist-skimming cuts that keep hallmark details while favoring sharper, shorter proportions for early fall.
  • Leather bomber and aviator jackets dominate the silhouette lineup, often finished with shearling or higher collars and endorsed by labels including Khaite and Miu Miu.
  • Texture-forward options expand with faux fur and shearling, alongside high-neck and built-in scarf styles highlighted on runways from Burberry to Victoria Beckham.
  • Consumer-facing guides underscore range and practicality, from collarless lady jackets and track tops to waxed barn styles, with styling advice to stretch summer outfits via layering and boot swaps.
