Alice + Olivia shrunken military jacket

The fashion world’s latest status symbol comes in the form of military-inspired jackets, which have featured heavily on the runways in recent seasons.

A must-have seasonless piece, the military jacket became especially popular when Balmain’s Christophe Decarnin sent down number after number of these tough-chic, body-skimming items on his runway – a feat that not only revived the brand but that set ‘Balmain fever’ all over the industry. Take a cue from the runway and bring military presence to your looks with a contemporary version of this trend-setting piece, like this spot-on Alice + Olivia embellished jacket. Show off your sartorial authority (and embrace your inner rock chick!) by wearing this chic attire over gray skinnies and a staple white tank.
