What to Wear: Leather Jacket for a Girls' Night Out

A girls' night out calls for a look that's a little more done-up than daywear — this is the one to have fun with. Here's how to make a leather jacket work for it — plus a way to actually see it on yourself before you commit.

Getting the silhouette right

For this occasion, look for a cropped or moto cut that hits at the hip, not mid-thigh. Genuine or a heavier faux leather holds structure better than a thin pleather.

  • Worn open over a dress instantly cuts formality without changing the dress
  • A silk or satin layer underneath balances the leather's edge

Color and finishing touches

  • Black leather is the most versatile; brown reads softer with warm tones
  • Let the jacket be the only 'hard' texture — pair with something soft underneath

What the occasion actually needs

A girls' night out is a little more done-up than daywear — this is the one to have fun with.

  • Pick one going-out shoe you can actually dance in
  • A going-out top with structure holds up better through a long night than something you have to keep adjusting
