Quilted jackets are up there with trench coats, in our opinion. They remain the outerwear piece the fashion crowd reaches for every autumn, so if you don’t own one already, this is your friendly nudge to invest.
Remember that khaki green Quilted Ripstop Jacket from The Frankie Shop that just about every influencer was wearing last year (and the year before that and the year before that…)? Well that was the silhouette that kick-started everyone’s obsession. With a collarless neckline and oversized silhouette, it’s easy to combat the temperamental weather with as many, or as few, layers underneath.

The Frankie Shop isn’t the only place to shop for a quilted jacket this season, though, with the likes of Free People, Damson Madder and ba&sh offering brightly coloured and patterned takes on the trend.
Why so popular, you ask? Think of the transeasonal layers that already reside in your wardrobe: blazers, denim jackets and biker jackets. These are key separates with one thing in common: they’re lightweight enough to wear as the temperature creeps up, but they’ll shield from the breeze on cooler days.
GLAMOUR’s edit of the best quilted jackets:
We’ve all made the mistake of hastily throwing off our winter coats at one sight of the sun, and braving the low spring temperatures with as few layers as possible. It only takes getting caught in the rain once as a reminder that the British weather is not very forgiving. A quilted jacket is an interim style you’ll thank yourself for investing in.
A universally flattering and casual staple, thanks to their generally relaxed fits, quilted jackets are what we have our sights set on this season. Shop our favourites below – from designer picks at TOTEME and Prada to ASOS and Zara’s high-street heroes.
