The Bronte Jacket

With Jeans: Wear it over a fine-knit sweater with straight or bootcut jeans and ankle boots. Leave it open so the lapel creates a long line through the front.

With Trousers: Pair it with a simple knit, wide-leg trousers and flats. The softer jacket keeps the trousers polished without making the outfit feel corporate.

With a Skirt: Add it over a fitted top with a straight or midi skirt and knee-high boots. The closer-fitting base balances the loose shape of the jacket.

Let the jacket be the strongest part of the outfit. Keep the layer underneath simple and avoid adding a scarf over the lapel—the neckline and button placement already give the outfit enough interest.
