11 Blue Jean Jackets to Layer Into Fall

Whether nostalgic relic, eighties memento, or go-to closet staple, the blue denim jacket never goes out of style. Still, one could claim that it is very much “having a moment” right now. Gap’s new “Back to Blue” ad campaign is everywhere, highlighting four different outfits in shades of indigo, including one in which a model wears a biker-style jean jacket with her jeans. Daria Werbowy looks chill as ever styled (by Kate Phelan) in a loose vintage Levi’s jacket in the September issue of British Vogue. And never one to miss out on a trailblazing trend, Opening Ceremony’s Elvis-inspired collection takes cues not only from the icon’s songbook, but also rockabilly style. The attraction? It is the perfect experimental piece: Pull it on over a denim shirt in the same shade for a confidently layered look, or tie one around the waist as a nod to Cobain. Try oversize shapes to adopt fall’s voluminous look (Denim Refinery offers a wide selection of relaxed vintage styles) or cozy up with Gap’s fleece-collared drop-pocket style.
