When it comes to building our wardrobes, there's something that feels particularly special about saving up our hard-earned cash for that one designer item we just can't stop thinking about. While we believe a luxury handbag is always a smart investment, when it comes to clothing, you really can't go wrong with a designer jacket. Whether a classic leather moto or a cropped shearling style—or something totally out-there and statement-making—jackets have much more wearability than most items and can be layered over a variety of different outfit combinations. This means, of course, that you get much more bang for your buck, which is always a good thing.
Ahead, we rounded up 25 of the best designer jackets for women that money can buy. From Gucci and Bottega Veneta to It girl-approved contemporary labels like Stand Studio and Nanushka, trust us, these are all worth the investment. Keep scrolling to shop our favorites of the season.
ACNE Studios
Shearling-Trimmed Textured-Leather Jacket
We're drooling over this gorgeous pick from ACNE Studios.
R13
Fringe Jacket
This fringed leather shacket from R13 has an effortlessly cool feel.
Nanushka
Ado Cropped Regenerated Leather Jacket
Leave it to Nanushka to create the best moto jacket to exist. We love that it's made from regenerated leather, upping the eco-friendly factor.
Off-White
Pen Arrows Leather Crop Biker Jacket
Another great moto jacket is this cropped style from Off-White, adorned with all the hardware and zipper toggles one can dream of.
This cropped number from Proenza Schouler’s White Label is so chic. We love it paired with a slit midi skirt like above, but it would just as great thrown on over a minidress or paired with casual denim.
