Fall Fashion Trend - Take Your Jacket To The Shrink

By Angela Baxter


Fall and winter can have brought out long peacoats and trenches before, but not this year. One of the most sought-after pieces for the upcoming period will be the shrunken jacket, in a collection of styles. The difference between these new, tinier versions of your traditional autumn and winter favorites is their length; cuts are the same as traditional coats, but they hit slightly above the waist and commonly tie or button under the chest. The beauty of these fresh pieces is that they provide coverage in colder months without sacrificing sexiness or femininity.

The perfect jacket is one of the most important components of your wardrobe, and with therefore many shapes and fabrics obtainable this fall, it would be a crime to select just one. The ever-present denim jacket is back having a new vengeance. Instead of the washes of last time or bulkiness of years before, this season's denim jacket is fluffy, body-conscious and far more feminine than the standard denim jacket. Corduroy and leather are back again, cropped and ready to be worn over anything from your favorite apparel to distressed jeans.

A new take on an old favorite is safe, but take advantage on the amazing new fabrics and designs the end of the year has to offer. Brocade is large this season and a few of the most sought-after fresh jackets are designed of the rich, detailed design. Many of these brocaded, boudoir-style jackets are trimmed in rich velvet or lace piping and can be paired with tweed trousers of you favorite jeans. Many of these new jackets are cut at the hip but some are reaching even higher'cropped just below the chest (H & M). Made in rich, new fabrics enjoy tweed and velvet, these jackets have mixed a traditionally matronly fabric with a cut and cling that makes it youthful and hot. Even faux fur and metallic finishes are adorning the newest trend (Allen B. by Allen Schwartz).

Getting short isn't the only new addition to a cold weather favorite. Sleeves are delivering revamped this season, retro-style. Traditional coat fabrics like houndstooth are being used in a new way. Bell sleeves (think bellbottom sleeves, cut below the elbow) combination cropped length having a traditional fabric and throwback to 70s style (Banana Republic). You'll also see a mini version of the military jacket this period; a cropped, girlie take on the long, heavy style, adorned with brass buttons and zippers (Bebe).

The beauty of these fresh jackets is the versatility they bring towards your own style: mix them with denim, dresses, skirts and trousers. Since there isn't one specific fashion or fabric that may reign this fall, all styles and dimensions can take advantage of a new take on an old favorite.
