Enough of the Heatwave—6 Jacket Trends You Should Be Aware of Before Autumn Arrives

      I’m the type of person who enjoys planning ahead. Each evening, before shutting down my laptop, I diligently prepare my to-do list for the following day. I have my shoes reheeled before the metal tip becomes exposed. I purchase a new concealer when my current one is only halfway gone. I apply this same strategy to my capsule wardrobe. While it’s important to be present when selecting outfits, I always consider the next season when contemplating a new purchase or addition. Currently, my attention is on autumn 2025.

      Autumn has always been my favorite season for fashion, and my collection of jackets is proof of that. My family jokes that my jacket obsession is an inheritance from my Granny, who admittedly owned nearly 100 jackets at one point (she lived in northern Scotland, so her collection is understandable). While I don't own anything close to her impressive selection, I do have a few jackets at my disposal. Nonetheless, I can always justify making space for another.

      With this in mind, I’ve begun exploring the jacket trends for autumn 2025 now. Yes, it’s still quite warm outside, but as someone who considers themselves somewhat of an expert on the matter, I must warn you: the best autumn jackets tend to sell out quickly. I’ve observed that several jacket trends are already catching the attention of fashion enthusiasts, with specific styles selling out.

      Below, I’ve outlined the autumn jacket trends for 2025 that seem most relevant, along with the best shopping options available for each. Some are updated takes on classics, while others feel entirely new, but all possess the enchanting combination of being stylish and highly desirable. Scroll down to see them.

      6 Autumn 2025 Jacket Trends You Should Know About Now:

      1. **Suede Blazers**

       **Style Notes:** The ’70s influence on the runway has reignited interest in suede blazers. Softer than leather yet still structured, they offer a polished look without being too formal. Rich tan and chocolate hues are particularly suited for autumn.

       **Shop the Trend:**

       - **ARKET**: Relaxed Suede Blazer - This piece has sold out for two consecutive years; 2025 will likely see the same trend.

       - **Massimo Dutti**: Suede Leather Blazer With Topstitching - Perfect for those who prefer tan shades.

       - **ZARA**: 100% Leather Long Jacket - The longer style complements fluid skirts and dresses beautifully.

      2. **Cropped Trenches**

       **Style Notes:** A modern take on the classic, cropped trench coats maintain the original’s structure and details but in a shorter, lighter version. They are perfect for transitional dressing and pair well with tailored as well as casual outfits.

       **Shop the Trend:**

       - **& Other Stories**: Short Trench Coat Jacket - Available in a classic beige color.

       - **MANGO**: Double-Breasted Cropped Trench Coat - No need to size up, as this style is already roomy.

       - **Burberry**: Cropped Gabardine Trench Jacket.

      3. **Red Jackets**

       **Style Notes:** Red has emerged as one of the standout colors this season, with outerwear being one of the boldest ways to wear it. Massimo Dutti's windbreaker sold out quickly (I’ve been assured it’s returning soon). Any jacket style works—be it barn, puffer, or blazer.

       **Shop the Trend:**

       - **THE ROW**: Elodianna Two-Tone Cotton-Canvas Jacket - A trend endorsed by The Row cannot be overlooked.

       - **Tommy Hilfiger**: Shiny Hooded Puffer Jacket - Embrace a preppy style with this heritage brand piece.

       - **TOLU COKER**: Paneled Denim Jacket - The unique color of this denim jacket is striking.

      4. **Funnel Necks**

       **Style Notes:** Available in sporty silhouettes with technical materials or heavier sleek cuts, funnel necks provide a streamlined, modern touch to outerwear. They’re also practical, offering Extra warmth without needing a scarf.

       **Shop the Trend:**

       - **Massimo Dutti**: High Neck Bomber Puff Jacket - This red variant has already sold out; don’t delay on the black.

       - **& Other Stories**: A-Line Funnel-Neck Jacket - The swing shape makes it compatible with even the bulkiest knitwear, making it a versatile staple regardless of the weather.

      5. **Barn Jackets**

       **Style Notes:** Country-style barn jackets are making a resurgence this autumn after their strong presence last year. The key feature is the contrasting (often corduroy) collar and sturdy material. They are practical and stylish, suitable for both urban and rural settings when worn with denim or knitwear.
