Trending styles of women’s denim jackets
The denim jacket is a wardrobe staple, a timeless capsule piece that never goes out of style and can see you through every season and occasion. Also called a trucker jacket, these essentials slip easily over v neck tees and singlets in the summer and snuggle up with long sleeve tops, hoodies and even coats in the winter for extra warmth.
Denim jackets come in all shapes, sizes and washes. Some of the most popular styles include:
- Cropped denim jackets made with stretch denim for a flattering fit
- Oversized denim jackets with a baggy fit
- Denim shirts that are lighter and longer
- Denim shackets for when you need more warmth than a denim shirt
- Denim bomber jackets for a chic, sporty look
- Denim blazers for a smart casual style at the office
- Denim vests to elevate dresses, jumpsuits, long sleeve tops and more

The perfect year-round outerwear
Equipped with effortless everyday wearability, you can put a denim jacket on regular rotation all year round. Easy to wear over singlets, dresses and tees on cool evenings in summer, they can also be layered with warmer outerwear when it’s chilly, such as quilted jackets, knitwear and puffers. Slip one over your tanks and tights for an elevated activewear ensemble or wear a denim shacket over your swimwear at the beach.
Turn a casual denim staple in a workwear workhorse by choosing a structured denim blazer in a dark wash to layer over a white shirt with black pants.
Cool and breathable - perfect as a layering piece
Denim jackets are the perfect transitional piece to take you from season to season. On cool days, they can be slipped over a print t-shirt or pretty blouse to take you from day to night. Boost a basic dress by adding a mid wash denim jacket for dates or unbutton a longline denim shirt over a singlet with jeans for brunch.
In the winter, style one over a hoodie with leggings for a trendy street look or tuck one beneath a trench coat with boots for maximum style. They can also be layered over cosy jumpers and cardigans for more warmth.
A jacket you can add to your outfit on any occasion
Denim blazers transform the humble jacket into a smart casual office staple while dark denim pieces sit prettily over black dresses for sophisticated dinner dates and events. Light and mid blue washes are your go-to option for casual brunches, weekends and running errands. Elevate them with a cropped style layered over floral midi dresses, lace blouses and delicate print tops.
On at-home days, relaxed denim shackets and shirts cosy up with plain and print t-shirts, joggers and casual pants for lounging in style.

What is the difference between a jacket and shacket?
A jacket is a piece that you layer over other clothes for warmth. Lighter than a coat, jackets come in many styles and slip over everything from tees and singlets to jumpers and sweats.
A shacket is a cross between a jacket and a shirt. It’s typically oversized and features a collar and button up design with long sleeves that can be rolled up. With fabric that’s heavier than a shirt but not quite as warm as a jacket, shackets are ideal transitional pieces for layering in between seasons.
