8 Celebrity Outfits That Prove Bombers Are Here to Stay
For a few seasons now, we’ve seen the bomber jacket maintain its status as one of the most versatile and covetable trends, unshaken by the ever-changing nature of the fashion industry. From bloggers and editors to models and It girls, everyone has hopped on board at one point or another. And with fall just days away, we thought we’d give the trend a little checkup to see how it’s faring.
The verdict? Well, if celebrity style is any indicator, the bomber is here to stay—and we’re quite pleased, considering that we own more of them than we’d like to admit. From style veterans like Jessica Alba and Diane Kruger to newer It girls like Kendall and Gigi, everyone is (still) rocking the jacket style we’ve all come to love.

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2024, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
