Trendscape: Trapeze Jackets

February 23rd, 2006

We can’t believe these jackets have just now landed in the fashion forefront because there are so many great reasons to wear them. There’s something effortlessly chic about the swingy midsection and girly three-quarter sleeves. They’re also a simple way to experiment with volume, if you’re averse to, say, poufy tulip skirts. Our favorite way to wear this jacket? With a long, fitted top (to balance out the crop and the width), a long chain and your favorite going-out jeans.
