If there’s one type of jacket you buy this fall and winter, let it be this. A quilted one. This trend is absolutely everywhere. And no, this isn’t your quilted Barbour jacket that you wear to go skiing. This is a fashion jacket. Very different. Instead of the fitted silhouette that you may lean into, it’s all about the more oversized fit.
It’s no secret that the styles have drastically changed in the last 10 years. What we loved back in the early 2010s now feels dated. And the same now goes for a quilted jacket. Say hello to more oversized pieces. Frankie Shop I think was the first to put this out and I can tell you it has taken over the streets of Europe. It is absolutely everywhere when it comes to street style. So let’s chat about how to style this new fun outerwear piece.
How To Style An Oversized Quilted Jacket
Pair With Leggings or Straight Leg Jeans
Since this is quite oversized and has absolutely zero shape, we want to create balance. And that always means something more fitted on the bottom. You can do a faux leather legging, dare I say a skinny jean, and a slim straight leg jean. This will help to create some proportion when you style a quilted jacket so you don’t feel like your clothes are taking over your entire body.

Shoes To Wear With An Oversized Quilted Jacket
Since I’m reaching for leggings or a more slim straight leg jean when I wear a quilted jacket, I’m going to go a little chunky on the bottom if I can. For this outfit, I went with my Sezane lug sole boots. These are similar too. A knee high lug sole would also be cool like this. And if you just want to do a sneaker, that works too. Any cool and slightly chunky sneaker would be perfect to balance this all out and give it a street style look.
Shop My Favorite Oversized Quilted Jackets
I went with the Mango quilted jacket that I picked up on a trip to Paris. For sizing, I took my usual size small that I typically grab for their jackets. You can read my full sizing guide on Mango here. This jacket is super oversized though, so if you are in-between sizes, I’d size down. A quilted jacket is such a great lightweight outerwear option for fall and spring.

Quilted Jacket Outfit Idea
Casual With Sneakers
Pair your quilted jacket with a slim straight jean, cute sweatshirt and a fashion sneaker for a casual everyday look. This is a perfect combo for those warmer winter days and early spring.
Olive Quilted Barn Jacket
Early Spring Outfit
For an early cold spring day, this is the perfect outfit to style a quilted jacket with. A floral long sleeve with light wash jeans makes this olive quilted jacket feel fresh for spring. Add in your canvas sneaker and a hat for a cool street style quilted jacket outfit.
Cream Quilted Jacket
Leopard and Quilted Jackets
Leopard is a favorite print for fall and winter and this is a great way to style it with a cream quilted jacket or a black one. Add a black boot and a pop of color with your sweater (or go more monochromatic in black for a streamlined look). This is how I’d dress up a quilted jacket for the season with a nice sleek boot.
The oversized quilted jacket trend isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. If you’ve been thinking about investing in one, it’s a great essential outerwear piece you’ll wear in the fall, layered up for warmer winter days, and into the early days of spring.
