Women's Black Harper's Bazaar Leather Collared Bomber Jacket

Real leather construction that holds its shape through the shoulders and upper body, developing a natural patina with wear rather than softening into shapelessness. Generously cut sleeves with a pronounced volume at the shoulder taper into a ribbed knit cuff that anchors the silhouette and keeps the proportions intentional. A pointed shirt-style collar sits over the bomber neckline - a detail that reads as considered rather than decorative, giving the jacket a dual-personality between edge and refinement. Chest zip pocket adds a structural focal point to the front panel without disrupting the clean lines of the body. Ribbed hem band sits at the hip, allowing the jacket to be worn open and relaxed or zipped to a neat finish depending on the occasion. A leather bomber with this kind of shoulder volume works hardest when the rest of the outfit is kept close and considered. The model layers it over a fine-knit roll-neck - the high neck visible above the collar - which is precisely the right call: it fills the neckline without competing with it and adds a polish that takes the jacket from weekend to a sharper daytime setting. Pair with a suede midi skirt, as shown, and the tonal dressing approach lets the leather's texture do the talking. For a more casual register, it sits equally well over straight-leg tailored trousers and a slim-fit knit. Come evening, swap the knitwear for a silk camisole underneath and let the bomber replace the coat entirely. This is the kind of piece that holds authority across a gallery opening, a long lunch, or a city afternoon without needing to be dressed up or down - it simply works. | Karen Millen Women's Harper's Bazaar Leather Collared Bomber Jacket in Khaki | Size: 6 Colour: black
