6 Autumn 2025 Jacket Trends I Need You to Know About Now
I’m the sort of person who likes to look ahead. I religiously map out my to-do list for the next day before I log off my laptop for the evening. I get my shoes reheeled before the metal tap becomes exposed. I order a fresh concealer when my current tube is halfway used. I take this approach with my capsule wardrobe, too. Of course, you need to live in the now where your outfits are concerned but, when it comes to making a purchase or mulling over a new addition, I always do so with the next season in mind. Right now, my focus is on autumn 2025.
Autumn has always been my favourite season to dress for and my jacket collection is testament to that. My family joke my obsession with jackets is something I inherited from my Granny who, by her own admission, owned almost 100 of them at one point (she lived in the north of Scotland, so I think we can afford her some understanding). While I don’t have anything near the impressive collection she owned, I do have a few at my disposal. And yet, I can always justify making room for one more.
With that in mind, I’ve started analysing autumn 2025’s jacket trends now. I know, I know, it’s still pretty warm out, but as someone who’s a bit of an expert on the subject, I have give you a warning: the best autumn jackets always sell out fast. And I’ve noticed that a handful of jacket trends are already resonating with the fashion set, with specific styles they’ve worn already going out of stock.
Below I’ve charted the autumn jacket trends that feel most relevant for 2025 and provided the best shopping I can find for each. Some are fresh updates on classics, others feel entirely fresh, but all have that magic combination of being chic and very covetable. Scroll below to see them.
6 Autumn 2025 Jacket Trends I Need You to Know About Now
1. Suede Blazers
Style Notes: The return of the ’70s influence on the runway has brought suede blazers back into focus. Softer than leather but with the same structure, they offer polish without feeling overly formal. Rich tan and chocolate shades feel particularly autumnal and on-trend.

ZARA
100% Leather Long Jacket
This longer length will pair beautifully with fluid skirts and dresses.
2. Cropped Trenches
Style Notes: A modern twist on a classic, cropped trench coats keep the structure and detailing of the original but in a shorter, lighter form. They’re ideal for transitional dressing and pair well with both tailored and casual looks.

MANGO
Double-Breasted Cropped Trench Coat

3. Red Jackets
Style Notes: Red has emerged as one of the key colours of the season, and outerwear is proving to be one of the most striking ways to wear it. Massimo Dutti’s windbreaker was a quick sell out (I have it on good authority that it is coming back very soon, however). That said, any jacket silhouette works, be it barn, puffer or blazer.

If The Row deems a trend as worthy, I am in non place to argue.

4. Funnel Necks

The perfect throw-on, whatever the forecast.
5. Barn Jackets
Style Notes: Country-inspired barn jackets are making a comeback again this autumn after dominating last, the key identifier being the contrast (often corduroy) collar and hardy material. Practical and unfussy, they work as well in the city as they do in the sticks when styled with denim or knitwear.
Shop the Trend:
Whistles
Neutral Corduroy Collar Jacket
The combination of warm beige and brown is incredibly sleek.
H&M
Corduroy-Collar Jacket
No one will believe this jacket cost you under £40.
BARBOUR
Sonnie Corduroy-Trimmed Cotton-Canvas Jacket
Barbour has been crafting barn jackets in their own league for decades.
6. Distressed Leathers
Style Notes: There’s a move away from pristine finishes towards lived-in, vintage-feel leather jackets. The slightly worn texture adds depth and character, giving even new pieces a sense of history and ease. Look for obvious distressing for an authentic take, or try a more textured leather finish for a point of different to the usual sleek leather.
