Keep reading to discover the 10 outerwear trends taking the fall fashion world by storm in 2024!

1. Denim jacket

The classic jean jacket is always a fall essential, but this season, it’s having a major moment thanks to the ongoing love affair with Western-inspired fashion and vintage vibes. Whether you’re drawn to an oversized, relaxed fit or prefer something more tailored and chic, there’s a denim jacket out there for every style. For fall 2024, expect playful details like patchwork, bold prints, and a hint of sparkle, giving this timeless favorite a contemporary twist that feels both nostalgic and new.

2. Oversized leather jackets

Leather jackets are a wardrobe favorite, and this fall, it’s all about going big – literally. Oversized leather jackets are stealing the spotlight, bringing a bold rock ‘n’ roll edge to your fall outfits. Leather jackets are versatile and stylish, perfect for layering over a sundress, dressing up jeans, or even adding a daring twist to workwear.

For a budget- and eco-friendly option, shop for leather jackets on consignment. Consignment stores like Current Boutique offer one-of-a-kind designer leather that will make your wardrobe stand out – without breaking the bank or harming the environment.

3. Faux fur fleece

Fur is back and better than ever this fall, but “new” fur is out – faux or consignment fur is the way to go. Thanks to advances in technology, faux fur has become more sustainable, with many brands now using natural fibers instead of plastic to create their faux fur pieces. Another environmentally friendly option is to buy real or faux fur on consignment, giving new life to pieces that would otherwise end up wasting away in a landfill.

For fall 2024, faux fur is especially popping up in unexpected colors and patterns, making a bold statement. But if you want a more timeless look, invest in neutral fur that never goes out of style. Pair your fur jacket with trendy fur-trimmed boots for the ultimate cozy ensemble.

4. Shearling-trimmed leather jackets

Get the best of both worlds with the must-have combo of the season: shearling and leather. Combining the warmth of shearling with the timeless appeal of leather, this trend is all about staying cozy while looking effortlessly cool. Whether you opt for a leather jacket with full shearling lining for extra warmth or one with just a fur trim at the collar and cuffs, this style offers a chic way to stay snug throughout the season.

5. Reinvented trench coats

No fall wardrobe is complete without a trench coat. But this season, they’re getting a modern makeover. Fall 2024 has reinvented the trench coat with new colors, textures, and silhouettes, from floor-length styles to leather trenches to unexpected hues like deep greens and rich burgundies. The variety in trench coat styles means you’ll be able to find the perfect match for your unique style.

6. Leopard print jackets

Leopard print is roaring back into the fashion scene, taking over outerwear in a big way. From long, dramatic coats to chic, tailored blazers, leopard print adds a wild flair to your fall wardrobe. Many fashionistas are even treating leopard print as a new brown-beige neutral, pairing it with other neutral tones for an ensemble that’s daring yet sophisticated.

7. Retro varsity bomber jackets

With ‘90s and Y2K styles still going strong, we’re seeing the return of a nostalgic favorite: retro varsity bomber jackets. This season’s bombers are less “clean” than the bombers of years past. Think oversized fits, bold logos, and a mix of materials like satin, wool, and leather. With their sporty, collegiate vibe, they offer a casual alternative to the preppy schoolgirl trend dominating fall 2024.

Pair your varsity jacket with a trendy denim skirt or a simple dress for a feminine take on this sporty classic, or throw it over an athleisure outfit for a stylish upgrade to everyday basics.

Tip: Check consignment shops for authentic vintage finds that add a nostalgic touch to your wardrobe.

8. Functional “work” jackets

Inspired by rugged, utilitarian styles from brands like Carhartt, the “work” jacket is making a comeback this fall, blending practicality with style. Expect to see them in a range of colors and materials, from classic denim to cozy corduroy. Whether layered over a cozy hoodie or a chunky knit sweater, work jackets are perfect for autumn adventures like pumpkin picking and fall hayrides.

9. Moto jackets

Moto boots have been a fall staple for a few seasons now, so it’s no surprise that moto jackets are following suit. They’ve gotten a fresh fall update, with unique details like studs, zippers, and patches. These edgy jackets are super versatile, pairing with everything from flowy dresses to jeans and a tee. Moto jackets offer an effortlessly cool vibe that can transition from day to night, making them a must-have for fall 2024.

10. Bright colored blazers

Who says fall has to be all about muted tones? Vibrant, colorful blazers are adding a breathtaking splash of color to the autumn wardrobe. Whether you go for bold reds, sunny yellows, or emerald greens, this trend is a fun way to add excitement to your work wardrobe by blending playfulness with professionalism.
