This Throwback Style Staple is Making a Comeback (and I’m Not Mad About It)

The 90's called, we answered.

Last Updated on September 29, 2022

When you think of 90s fashion, what comes to mind?

For some, it’s Princess Diana’s iconic oversized sweatshirt and cycling shorts combo. For others, it’s Cher Horowitz and Dionne Davenport in check two-pieces.

For me? It has to be the leather blazer.

Back then many stars embraced them (Gwyneth Paltrow, Reese Witherspoon and Winona Ryder, to name a few), helping to make them one of the most iconic pieces of the decade.

In 2022, they’re still very much a staple in A-listers (and their stylist’s) wardrobes; Kylie Jenner, Emily Ratajkowski, Bella Hadid, Hailey Bieber, Kim Kardashian and Kaia Gerber have all been pictured wearing leather blazers in recent years.

As we enter autumn, it’s possibly our only chance to wear them as when the cold weather really hits, we’ll be firmly wrapped up in puffer coats (or the new kid on the block, bomber jackets).

I’ve been doing some research into what’s available on the high street, a preferable option if you’d rather wear vegan leather. H&M, Pull & Bear, ASOS and Stradivarius all have leather-look blazers available for under £50.

Thanks to an assortment of faux leather blazer options, they’re also affordable. Here are a few from H&M, Reformation, Stradivarius, and more.

If you’re looking for one to keep in your wardrobe for years to come, I’m also a big fan of Reformation and The Frankie Shop’s slightly more expensive options. The latter brand has a buttery leather beige blazer that I’m dreaming of.

But less talk, more action. Here are the best leather blazers you can buy now. We’re updating this article regularly, to check back soon for even more options.
