Following trends can be exhausting, especially when they demand yet another “add to cart” moment. Thankfully, funnel-neck jackets don’t seem to be going anywhere any time soon—and really, who doesn’t love something they can invest in?
First spotted on the fall/winter runways, the modern-meets-minimalist silhouette became a fast favorite among the fashion set, serving as an edgy alternative to the classic leather bomber jackets (but really, those will always be en vogue). Between genuine leather and suede styles from luxury designers like Proenza Schouler, Khaite, and Miu Miu, to wool and nylon styles perfect for everyday occasions (including rainy days and runs to your favorite workouts), the ’80s-inspired jacket trend will give any ensemble an added air of cool, thanks to a simple pop of the collar.
Away from the runways, one can’t seem to escape the high collar silhouette. Fashion girls everywhere are continuing to buy into the trend. Whether you’re the type to go with a look that feels almost too cool for school with an ultra-high chimney-neck option or you’re embracing the vintage running look with a sporty take on the trend, this is the key to making everything look just a touch tougher.
Of course, you don’t need to be edgy to pull off the trend. There are plenty of options that lean more feminine. Case in point: Barbour’s gingham water-repellent style, which is a must during spring’s unpredictable weather. And that’s not the only must-see option. Scroll on to see our favorite takes on the trend below.
