The right women’s jacket doesn’t just keep you warm—it sets the tone for your entire outfit. In 2025, women’s outerwear is all about versatility, unique detail, and statement-making silhouettes. From classic winter coats to trend-led pieces, there’s a jacket to suit every look and lifestyle.
Whether you’re layering up for winter or adding a finishing touch to your outfit in spring, here are the top 10 jacket styles trending this year—and how to wear them.
Popular Women’s Jackets in 2025
1. Faux Suede jackets and coats: Earthy Neutrals & Textural Layers
The faux suede jacket is trending big time in 2025. One of suede’s charms is its soft, velvet texture, which has an earthy look and feel, whilst still looking stylish. Faux suede means that, though the fabric feels as smooth as a cow, no animals were harmed when making it, which is a bonus for most women’s fashion lovers out there!
Faux suede vests, sherpa jackets, jackets that resemble blazers, and of course, coats, are all popular right now. They work really well with base layers in neutral-colours like cream, black, grey, navy and khaki, and with rich winter tones like burgundy and royal blue. Try pairing a suede jacket with a cable knit jumper for a textural feast!
The great thing about a faux suede jacket is that it works well in any season. Brown faux suede will look gorgeous as part of an autumn ensemble, but also really nice paired with a knit winter dress, spring floral skirt, or with a white linen dress in summer.
2. Knit Jackets: Cosy Structure
Whilst you could just call these cardigans, the ‘knit jacket’ is trending in ‘25. These jackets combine the structured appearance of a jacket, with a cosy, soft knit. These babies will keep you looking neat and presentable, and feeling super warm.
Particularly popular now are knit cardigans with pockets, bold buttons and collared necklines. They work well as part of a work ensemble (pair with a crew neck top, midi skirt and low heels). They also look great as part of a casual outfit, especially for indoor occasions. Pair with jeans and your best sneakers.
3. Vegan Leather Jackets: Sleek and Structured Cool
The leather look has established itself as being eternally fashionable, and this year is no exception. Vegan leather jackets (or faux leather jackets) are even more popular, as they combine the cool look of leather with more animal-friendly fabrics.
Faux leather jackets and coats go with pretty much everything, and look equally good when worn with a pair of jogger pants as they do with an evening dress or skirt. So pair your garments with ease!
A trending look right now? Vegan leather biker jackets paired with blue jeans and warm neutral-coloured women's tops and footwear. Also, vegan leather trench coats (with or without sleeves) are also popular. Their sophisticated vibe works well with a turtle neck pullover as base layer, and heeled winter boots.
4. Denim Jackets: Pastels, Embroidery & Oversized Fits
The classic denim jacket is enjoying a style renaissance in 2025. While blue denim remains a staple, trending updates include embroidered designs, pastel hues, and white denim, which offers a fresh look.
Oversized fits are also in vogue, giving off an effortless, relaxed vibe. Whether you’re dressing down a dress or layering over a t-shirt and trousers, a statement denim jacket is a must-have this year.
5. Teddy and Faux Fur Jackets: Luxe Texture & Cropped Cuts
Get that high-end fur look without animal cruelty by investing in a faux fur jacket in 2025. You’ll definitely be on trend, whether you opt for the faux fur that emulates the real thing, or the fur that looks like your favourite stuffed toy (teddy jackets).
Crop faux fur jackets are trending this year, but long teddy coats are also in vogue, and have the added advantage of keeping those hips and thighs warm!
Try pairing your faux fur jacket with an elegant cocktail dress and heels for a glam look this winter! Alternatively, for a day look, wear a cropped faux fur jacket with slim-fit pants and ankle boots.
6. Utility Jackets: Functional Fashion with Stylish Edge
Utility jackets are on trend. What are they exactly? As their name suggests, they’re jackets that offer a lot of uses, without the ostentatious fluff. They usually come in neutral colours, so pair easily with numerous items from your wardrobe, and they come with useful features like multiple pockets, zips, snap closures, drawstrings, and basically anything that helps you get through your day. They are the down-to-earth jacket you absolutely need for practical day-to-day activities like grocery shopping, dog walking, and the rest of it.
Whilst you won’t find ‘utility jackets’ listed in Femme Connection’s jackets pages, we certainly stock jackets that fall into this category. You’ll know them when you see them! They might be denim, quilted, puffy or fluffy! Whatever the case, when you see a jacket that oozes practicality, that’s your utility jacket!
7. Puffer Jackets: Subdued Colours & Reversibles
Puffer jackets are dominating winter wardrobes in 2025 with understated colours and reversible styles taking centre stage.
Try pairing a quilted puffer with high-waisted jeans and chunky sneakers for a casual-cool vibe. Or, wear a longline hooded puffer over a neutral-toned knit dress and boots for effortless warmth and style.
8. Blazers: Prints, Cropped Cuts & Colour-Play
Blazers are stepping beyond the boardroom in 2025. Printed styles, cropped cuts and textured fabrics are trending hard, offering a fun take on this classic jacket.
How to style the blazer for the weekend? Layer a printed blazer over a basic tee and mom jeans for a smart-casual outfit. Or, wear a cropped blazer with a midi skirt and heels for a playful-yet-polished evening look.
9. Winter Coats: Soft Pastels, Checks & Statement Shapes
This season’s winter coats are stylish and snug, with wrap styles, tailored longlines and belted silhouettes trending. Look out for pastels, camel tones, and patterned options like checks or animal print.
Coats are a piece of cake to style, as you can pretty much put them over anything and you’ll look good. But for a couple of up-to-the-minute style ideas, try pairing a belted camel coat with tailored trousers and a turtleneck for a chic weekday look. Or layer a patterned coat over jeans and a chunky cable knit for a casual vibe.
10. Animal Print Jackets: Bold Moves
Animal prints—especially leopard and zebra—are in high rotation this year. Think cropped cuts, faux fur finishes and statement-making patterns that add instant flair.
Styling-wise, try a cropped leopard print jacket over an all-black outfit for contrast to the max! Or layer a longline animal print coat over a neutral knit set to keep things playful but balanced.
