The Faux Fur Jacket Edit: 8 Styles Worth Shopping Now
Forget saving faux fur for evenings out. This winter, it's all about dressing it down.
Cropped, cosy and full of texture, the short faux fur jacket is making a case for everyday wear. It's an easy way to elevate the clothes you already own, from denim to chunky knits. The trick? The more casual the outfit, the better it looks.

How To Wear It Now
With denim and trainers
The easiest winter outfit formula. Straight-leg or barrel jeans, a white T-shirt and your favourite trainers. Add a cropped faux fur jacket and let it do the work.
With a chunky knit and loafers
A slouchy jumper, relaxed denim and loafers make the perfect weekend combination. Chocolate brown, cream and taupe jackets work particularly well with neutral knitwear.
With stripes and flat boots
A Breton top, straight-leg jeans and ankle boots is a classic for a reason. Throw on a faux fur jacket for an instant school-run upgrade.
With tailored trousers
For something smarter, pair a cropped jacket with wide-leg trousers, a fine-knit polo neck and loafers. Keep the colours tonal for a more polished finish.
The golden rule? Let the jacket be the statement. Keep accessories understated, skip anything overly dressy and wear it with the pieces you already reach for most.
And yes, it still works for evening. Just don't save it for then.
