So Many Chic People I Know Own This Whistles Jacket—Now It’s 20% Off
Whistles has launched its Black Friday sale early this year, with 20% off the whole site, including the Clean Bonded jacket.
Every so often, a piece of clothing comes along that gets hearts racing across the entire fashion industry. Sometimes, it's a runway look that goes viral, meaning it's probably out of reach for most of us, and sometimes, it's a more accessible high-street buy that proceeds to pop up in the wardrobes of all the most stylish people. Whistles' Bonded Leather Jacket is one of these pieces.
Of course, the real leather makes it an investment piece at £449, but if you're considering investing now is that time with 20% off for Black Friday. Its clean, cool, structural lines; buttery-soft, luxurious texture, and classic-wardrobe-staple qualities (it doesn't get more timeless than a black leather jacket, does it?) make it a very wise investment indeed.
So much so that the style sold out pretty instantaneously when it first launched in black last year, and those lucky enough to have snagged it the first time around have been flaunting theirs on social media ever since. Naturally, it didn't take long for the brand to expand its offering. First, to khaki and then, earlier this year, a rich shade of chocolate brown.
I can personally vouch for the jacket, as I borrowed it from the brand to wear one London Fashion Week. I proceeded to fall head over heels for it when I tried it on with so many of my go-to outfits, and it made every single one feel more elevated and cool. Honestly, it's a minimalist's dream, and influencers have been styling theirs with everything from blue jeans and loafers for spring to relaxed tailoring and knitwear layers during autumn and winter.
In 2024, Whistles also introduced a petite version alongside the classic style, that currently comes in the black colourway. Whilst retaining the roomy appeal of the original, the petite style is cropped in the arm and body length to fit just right on shorter frames.
