Instead of Blazers, Fashion People Are Now Wearing This Classic Jacket That Whispers Wealth

If you haven't noticed already, the biggest movement in fashion is a shift towards functionality, which is why the practical wax jacket is rearing its head again. From Miu Miu styling their sandals with high-voltage plasters on the runway to overstuffed accessories and bag charms becoming a real-life motif adopted by designers, the sartorial mode of late is rooted in everyday use—and it's gotten me rethinking my transeasonal outerwear in the process.
Unlike wool or leather styles, wax jackets are perfect for layering over warm knits and wearing with chunky boots, bridging the gap between town and country that most London 'It' girls crave.
This practical jacket instills a utilitarian yet polished silhouette that can withstand British weather with grace. The wax jacket repels drizzles whilst offering an elegant alternative to a classic raincoat in a boxy yet comfortable design. Although the coating is as tough as nails, it has an air of refinement, similar to the classic tweed jacket or bouclé cardigan. And you'll be pleased to hear you don't need to spend a fortune to get the look.
Heritage brands such as Barbour serve up wax jackets in a range of shades and cuts and to the highest standard—my country-dwelling grandma has been wearing the same one for over 40 years—but high-street retailers and designer names alike have followed suit this season with their own iterations. (Barbour has also collaborated with Alexa Chung and Ganni for a more modern and whimsical take à la the styling we see showcased when the likes of Dua Lipa step out in a wax jacket.)
From the Whistles style I keep seeing on Instagram to Loewe and, yes, some Barbour thrown in for good measure, read on to discover my edit of the best wax jackets to shop this spring.
