How to wear the reversible jacket ?

For some time now, the major fashion houses have been increasingly interested in the reversible jacket. By the end of 2022, this trend is likely to be on the shelves of every ready-to-wear shop. What is it that makes the reversible jacket so appealing? What’s the best way to wear it ?

The reversible jacket, a 2-in-1 garment

The reversible jacket can be worn two ways. It’s a very practical garment on all levels. Firstly, it saves space. If you don't have much room to store your clothes, you can enjoy twice as much clothing just by buying reversible. Secondly, the reversible jacket allows you to have two jackets to go with twice as many outfits. Usually, we tend to stick to fairly basic jackets to make them easier to wear. With a reversible jacket, if one side is plain, you can be more original with the other side. It’s possible to change your outfit as many times as you like and switch from one to the other in a single movement. For example, with a jacket that’s plain on the outside and floral on the inside, you can be elegant and classic at work and arrive in a more stylish outfit at the after-work party.

The reversible jacket, an eco-responsible garment

Today, most people are becoming more environmentally responsible consumers. This is also the case when they buy clothing. Beyond the choice of materials, they are interested in alternative ways of wearing clothes. In this sense, the reversible jacket is a highly desirable item, because its carbon footprint is reduced and it allows for a reduction in the consumption of clothing.

How to match the reversible jacket with your outfit ?

To wear your reversible jacket well, it is essential to coordinate it with your outfit. This is not so easy for the simple reason that you have to make sure that your outfit’s shape, style and colours are perfectly matched to the shape, style and colours of your jacket, both inside and out. After all, when you move, you’ll see the interior. For example, if you have a reversible jacket that is black on the front and red on the reverse, we advise you to wear either black or red or a mixture of both. On the other hand, if you have a blue casual jacket with a yellow floral pattern on the reverse, you can easily wear jeans. However, if the reverse side is patterned, avoid wearing it with a patterned top.

How to wear a reversible jacket if you sweat a lot ?

While the reversible jacket is environmentally friendly in that it uses one garment instead of two, it does not use less water than a conventional jacket. When you wear it, it can get dirty on both sides, especially for those who sweat a lot. It should still be washed often. Sweat tends to form rings around the armpits and, if you turn the jacket inside out, this will show. In this case, if you want to wear a reversible jacket on both sides between washes, it is advisable to use underarm perspiration patches. These are self-adhesive cotton or fabric patches that are attached with safety pins.

Ultimately, the reversible jacket has many advantages.
