The jacket is a pleasant alternative to waistcoats and coats in mid-season, or even during summer evenings. The linen or cotton jacket is ideal for combining lightness and protection in case of a breeze! A must-have item in a woman's wardrobe, the jacket can be worn over your clothes and can take many forms: blazer, bomber, teddy, suit or perfecto... Easy to put on, the women's jacket brings the final touch to your outfit. You are free to opt for a well-considered total look or for a striking contrast. Your suit jacket can be worn with a skirt or strict trousers as well as with jeans and sneakers. For a trendy look, opt for a kimono jacket, for example. Choose a short bolero jacket to structure the silhouette. The most fanciful will dare to wear an oversized model.
Just because the temperatures are getting colder doesn't mean you have to give up on a jacket - quite the contrary! There's nothing to stop you wearing it under a woman's coat, unless you opt for a cosy, warm faux fur or sherpa collar jacket. The black jacket is an ultra-versatile classic, just like the denim jacket. You may prefer to alternate models according to the occasion, by falling for a colourful model or a sophisticated print for your next evening, or for a denim jacket to accompany your casual looks. American Vintage, La Fée Maraboutée, Antik Batik or Claudie Pierlot: jacket models from the latest collections are available on Place des Tendances.
Do you want to show off your figure to the full? Do you want to choose the jacket that's right for you? Discover our best fashion tips for choosing the right jacket for your body type!
Do you have an inverted pyramid shape? In this case, your chest is wider than your shoulders. When looking for a jacket, you should try to emphasize your hips and avoid bulging your chest. Why should you do this? So as not to unbalance your figure. If you have a "V" shape, in addition to your chest, your shoulders are also wider than your hips. That's why you should avoid jackets with shoulder pads. We recommend that you focus on trapeze jackets, straight cut biker jackets or basque or peplum jackets. Straight denim jackets are also a great option!
Do you have an "A" shape? If so, your hips are wider than your bust. In this sense, we advise you to try to emphasize your upper body to balance your silhouette. You can therefore opt for bomber jackets, jackets with a claudine collar, jackets with epaulettes or even hooded jackets. Avoid jackets with basques or trapeze shapes.
If you have an "X" shape, your shoulders and hips are the same width. Generally, your chest is small or medium and your body is slightly angular. Your waist is generally narrow.
The goal here? To find a jacket that shows off your slim waist! In this sense, we recommend that you buy fitted or belted jackets and tailored jackets. Perfectos will suit you perfectly!
What is the difference with the 8? The size. If you have a figure 8, your hips are in line with your shoulders, but your waist is marked. Here you have to learn how to emphasize your assets without overdoing it. As for jackets, you can buy short fitted jackets, fitted blazers or belted trench coats.
In general, it is said that many cuts are suitable for figure 8s, but we still advise you to avoid jackets that are too straight and very thick.
If you have this morphology, you have a full figure, a generous chest, a rounded belly and a round buttock. We recommend that you opt for slim-fitting jackets, dark blazers and ¾ length jackets. Short, closed jackets should be avoided, as should down jackets or jackets with fancy patterns.
If you have an "H" shape, your body is fairly straight, with your shoulders, waist and hips all at the same width. What's the point? The goal is to create volume. For this reason, we recommend all jackets that can be left open, trench coats with a belt, denim jackets with chest pockets, fancy jackets, straight and closed leather or imitation leather jackets or trapeze blazers. Avoid jackets that are too tight, as they will leave too much of a mark on your slim waist and won't add volume.
Now that you know what's right for you in terms of styles and cuts, let's look at colours! There's no better way to complete our guide!
Are you detail-oriented and want to find a jacket that shows off your pretty face? We're here to help you do just that! To find out which colours make you look your best, you need to start by determining your skin tone. To do this, there is a very practical technique: the wrist vein technique.
Stand in the daylight and turn your hands palm side down. Look at your veins. Are they bluish or purplish in colour? Or do they have a greenish, greyish colour? If your veins appear purple or blue, you have a cold undertone. Conversely, if they are green or grey, you have a warm undertone. You can have a warm undertone if your skin is white, and conversely a cool undertone if your skin is matt. Can't determine the colour of your veins? Then place a gold and a silver jewel under your neck. If gold makes you look better, you probably have a warm undertone, if the opposite is true, you have a cool undertone. If you feel like you are neither, you have what is called a neutral skin tone.
Cool colours are ideal! If you have dark skin, cool, light shades are perfect: light blue, light green... If you have white skin, dark blues, duck green or khaki green are best.
Go for warm colours! With dark skin, choose shades of light red, light yellow or salmon, for example. For light skin, choose burgundy, carmine red or ochre.
