Jennifer Lawrence Just Wore the Elevated Jacket We'll All Buy in 2024
A new year calls for fresh outfit inspiration, and one of our favourite celebrities is already leading the charge. Jennifer Lawrence was pictured polishing up her casual outfit in the most 2024 way. Predicted by the runways to be a major trend next season, Lawrence proved she's ahead of the fashion game with her excellent styling of a black leather blazer by The Row.
A supremely chic outerwear option, a leather blazer combines the elegance of a classic blazer with the refined sheen and expensive smoothness of leather. Styling a denim and leather pairing, the actress kept her outfit looking casual yet elevated through her clever layering of textures. Completing her look with banana-milk yellow slippers (also by The Row) and black wide-leg trousers, Lawrence's casual outfit provided a template for comfortable yet stylish winter dressing.
On Jennifer Lawrence: The Row Boice Leather Jacket (£2970) and Sleeper Leather Slippers (£354)
Spotted across the S/S 24 runways, the sharp leather blazer is back on the radar of the style set. Seen on the Bally runway paired with sleek leather shorts and polished brogues, the 2024 collections attest to a big spike in the leather trend this year.
Whilst oversized blazers held on to their staple status last year, 2024's blazer trend is set to be simultaneously more edgy and refined than the styles we've already seen. Working well with everything from blue jeans and a white tee to winter dresses and wool trousers, the classic shape of this trending item will make it easy to style with most of your capsule wardrobe.
