The Kate Burnished Leather Jacket: How to Style The leather jacket is integral to the Whistles DNA, appearing in many modernised guises, but always built upon a foundation of heightened details, considered silhouettes and elevated materials. The Kate Burnished Leather Jacket embodies this: an evolution of the racer jacket, with burnished seams and exposed metal hardware lending it a grungy, distressed look. Marking the restock of the much-loved piece, we sat down with our Senior Brand Creative Manager, Camilla Brull, to spotlight ways to style our Kate Burnished Leather Jacket. Elevated Weekdays “For a working day, pair the Kate Burnished Leather Jacket with our Amelie Wool Blend Trouser. Tailored trousers are part of the Whistles DNA — and our Amelie Wool Blend Trouser is meticulously designed to elevate any look. Under the jacket, add a light knit like our Bailey Button Through — the khaki colour will go really well with the brown leather. For some elevation and comfort, add the Skye Heeled Loafer. To complete the look, a Tote bag is the best way to go — Our Kamil Stitch Bag even fits laptops, so it’s perfect if you need to carry it all day long.” Elevated Weekdays “For a working day, pair the Kate Burnished Leather Jacket with our Amelie Wool Blend Trouser.

Pair them with our Ivory Crew Neck Knit, an understated but elegant staple with lovely fringe detailing. Add the Elba Ballet Pumps in black for a more classic look — or the snake, for a bolder touch — and finish the look with some accessories. The Bibi is the perfect everyday bag, it fits everything and anything that you need. Everyone in our head office has one, it’s hard to pick only one colour!” Brunch in the city “Nothing beats comfort like our Ankle Wide Leg Jeans, making them the perfect trousers for brunch.

Suede is having a moment so it’s a great piece to go with leather. This look is great with a slingback heel, or if you’re after a more relaxed evening, try the Tassel Snake Ballet Pumps. Adding the small Paloma bag will complete this effortless look.” Evenings Out “The Kate Burnished Leather can be worn all day long and it’s perfect for spring-summer evenings, especially worn over our Ultimate Cami top and paired with our Suede mini skirt, which comes in the most amazing olive colour.
