Shirt jacket aka Shacket: What is that?
Not a shirt, not a jacket, but a shirt jacket – or jacket (made up of shirt and jacket) or overshirt, if you’d rather give the jacket trend an English name. Either way: We’re talking about the most popular transition jacket in 2020. But what is a shirt jacket or overshirt? Put simply, it is an oversized, usually boxy-cut shirt made of thicker and warmer material (e.g. wool, felt, corduroy or tweed) that is suitable for being worn outside as a jacket in spring or autumn. In winter shirt jackets are also happy to layers combined or under a coat (hence over shirt) worn over a thick sweater.
Shirt jacket 2020: Shackets are so diverse now
Plain colors made of wool or teddy fur, with a colorful checkered lumberjack look, made of (synthetic) leather or decorated with fringes and pearls: shirt jackets are currently available in a wide variety of designs and price ranges. So if you want to add a new member to your jacket and coat collection, you are guaranteed to find it this season.
Combining a shirt jacket: this is how you wear jackets
With denim trousers as well as dresses, skirts, or suit pants: As a real styling all-rounder, shirt jackets go with everything. Which look you want to create always depends on the style of the jacket itself and the rest of the outfit. In general, one can say: clean, single-colored shirt jacket designs go particularly well with noble looks, utility, and checked models harmonize more with casual outfits.
