A leather jacket has been a failsafe wardrobe staple for decades, but the leather bomber is a new iteration to have on your radar.
Acne, Saint Laurent, and COS are some of the brands that have released leather straight jackets, some boast a relaxed fit, others a voluminous bomber, but the premium alternatives come with a hefty price tag fetching over £6,000.
We follow a number of fashion influencers, including Georgia White, Milly Hobbs, and Sam Preston, who have all recommended the M&S design, and we are particularly a big fan of the Faux Leather Relaxed Fit Jacket.
The M&S Faux Leather Relaxed Fit Jacket is a new drop from the high street store, but we predict it will fly off the shelves.
M&S Faux Leather Relaxed Fit Jacket
Made from polyurethane to create a faux leather look, this jacket looks more premium than it is. It boasts a relaxed fit, while the ribbed elasticated hem works to pull in the waist and add volume to the body. It features a collar, dropped shoulders, as well as a zip and button front fastening.
The Faux Leather Relaxed Fit Jacket we would say is a hybrid of various leather jacket designs, including a classic leather jacket, bomber jacket and straight fit shacket.
This relaxed design when worn undone resembles a straight fit, but zip it up and the oversize fit pulls in to create a bomber-style.
It features a collar, ribbed hem and cuffs to fit the wearer comfortably and keep in the warmth. It also features two patch pockets, which is a super stylish finish.
The Faux Leather Relaxed Fit Jacket has been made from polyurethane fabric, which resembles a natural leather textile to rival high end designs, namely Cos’ £400 Oversized Collared Leather Jacket.
M&S has paid extra attention to detail as this jacket is lined for extra warmth and protection, it also features a zip and popper button front fastening.
What we love about this jacket is it is uber versatile and practical, as it can be worn day to night, as well as throughout all seasons. It can be styled with jeans, a white T-shirt and jeans, as well as a dress, satin slip skirt, and heeled boots. In the winter slip a chunky turtleneck knit underneath, or drape loosely over your shoulders in the spring.
While it is new to M&S, it has yet to rack up lots of reviews. However, one M&S shopper has hailed it a ‘very stylish jacket’ that resembles ‘high end’ alternatives, and we couldn’t agree more.
The jacket is available in sizes 6 to 24, and it is said to be true to size.
We urge you to shop quickly to avoid missing out on this chic staple.
