Which one do you prefer: J. Crew or Sézane? What do you think of lady jackets being called a trend? Is it a staple for you? Fashion recycles its icons in order to communicate quickly in shorthand. We are now in a social media era of rapid drops, even for luxury. It used to be that labels would present at two fashion weeks per year, plus pre-collections at the showroom. Now pre-collections are a must, and houses launch capsules, drops, and collabs very frequently. Mid-tier brands are always dropping and always refreshing their new-in sections. In this rapid pace, it’s no wonder trends recycle recognizable pieces, like the Chanel jacket. Now called the Lady Jacket, perhaps to avoid litigation, this jacket takes on a boxier silhouette and a more casual vibe than the tweed jackets sold by Chanel. LTKVideo LTKworkwear LTKstyletip
