Many designers have taken standard basics likedenim jackets, trench coats and leather jackets and added modern details. This makes the item stand out a little more while still being totally wearable for everyday.Brown, in particular, is a fan of this year's denim jacket trends."This season we're seeing them cropped, asymmetric, exaggerated shoulder detail, exaggerated collars," she says. "The newer styles are a little bit more unique."All three stylists also agree that another big trend is a classic trench coat with some modern flair. "For sure, the oversized shoulders is a thing," Acevedo says, adding that you can also opt for a cropped style or something that "nips at the waist" for a "universally flattering" shape. And instead of a standard leather jacket, Noël recommends "leaning more into that romantic [trend]" for spring with a texture like suede or details like ruffles or a blouson silhouette.The bottom line is that you can wear a staple like a jean jacket or a trench coat or a leather jacket, but just in a new and unexpected way for this season. And because the materials these jackets use are so well known and classic, the items stay wearable long beyond just this trend cycle.Related:27 Best Plus-Size Spring Outfit Ideas, According to Celebrity Stylists For an elevated jean jacket, Brown says that she loves styling it with a dressier fabric since denim is naturally "very utilitarian."
