As we near mid-February, we’re no longer reaching for those heavy winter coats, opting instead for the best quilted jackets, courtesy of labels like The Row, Everlane, and The Frankie Shop. Navigating this period between winter and spring can often present challenges for your wardrobe, which is where transitional style staples come into play—say, a chunky knit sweater, a timeless trench coat, or an oversized blazer.
As of late, though, it turns out that all you need to master transitional dressing is a sleek quilted shell jacket or coat. Known as shells or liners, the best quilted jackets are equally chic and versatile, worn layered underneath a warm winter coat on especially cold days or all on their own atop a crisp button-up or slim-fitting turtleneck. The style is a certified closet classic; just ask Gigi Hadid. Earlier this year, the supermodel stepped out in The Row’s Agathon belted quilted coat for a twisted take on traditional tailoring.
Like Hadid’s leather version, longline quilted coats from Ganni and & Other Stories are neutral enough to pair alongside your other foundational wardrobe essentials, say, a plain white tee or lived-in denim, and never overpower. Additional fuller-coverage options include Anine Bing’s navy liner, Palm Angels khaki quilted parka, and Norma Kamali’s Sleeping Bag coat. When it comes to the best quilted jackets, Totême’s basic black shell is first on our shopping list. For elegant evenings out, it even has the potential to replace your trusty leather jacket or tuxedo jacket. Offerings just as good include Stand Studio’s quilted Spring jacket, Mango’s lightweight anorak, and Everlane’s liner, of course. In the classic khaki, The Frankie Shop’s padded jacket and Alpha Industries’ quilted liner are cool-girl staples, to be worn casually on the weekend with a cargo pant and stylish sneakers. Off-white offerings from Nanushka, Cos, and Rag & Bone are a welcome contrast to the classic black and khaki, while styles from Proenza Schouler and LouLou Studio lean more fashion-forward.
