This season, our approach to jackets are widening with the
insert of the ‘Sleeveless Jacket’ to the fashionable line-up of what’s hot.
Structured, but sans sleeves, this item is a fantastic
option to allow for layering and bringing in a boyish vibe to any outfit
without too much effort.
The Sleeveless Jacket can very quickly pull your look
together, and all you need to do is throw it over a silk shirt or camisole and
voila, you add fantastic amounts of stylish masculinity or to any femininely
orientated outfit.
There have been a couple of variations of material and
length to hit this season’s most fashionable wardrobes – the most trending being
the shorter denim sleeveless jacket, a longer, more structured and suit
orientated sleeveless number, and the camo version, which is military based and
equal parts practical and fashionable!
To use the Sleeveless Jacket as an accent to these seasons’
outfits, there are a few things you should keep in mind; here is a list to
ensure your hitting the trend straight on…
1) Take on either a ‘Minimalist’ or ‘Rocker’ vibe.
These two style orientations seem to work well for the
Sleeveless Jacket.
If minimalism is your preference, then keep the lines of
your garments sharp, the angles clear and the fabric structured.
Monotone works best for this look as does minimal
accessorising and equally structured hair (try a side part!)
Taking up the more rocker look means that edginess will play
a big part in your styling. Hem lines
can be roughed up, layers can be creased and more haphazardly thrown together,
and accessories should be staked and spiked to pay tribute to the grungy rockers
of our past.
2) Loose the long sleeves.
This look, as the jacket suggests, is sleeveless.
So try and make sure the rest of you outfit follows sync for
the ultimate in styling combo.
