WINTER 2025’S JACKETS ARE A WORK OF ART

You’re a young art world ingénue (according to yourself) hungry for a career in the actual art world. You are both highly ambitious and ambition-less. Your online presence is too chaotic to be represented by an established gallery, though this is part of your practice. And as such this winter, you will require an appropriate jacket.

This season, volume, drape, tubules, and texture come together to make your silhouette stand out. Offering a subversive take on the classic puffer, the Y/Project Blue Cropped Puffer Denim Jacket takes on the form of an inflated bolero, completed in a whiskered denim. Describe things as “praxis,” “libidinal,” or “derivative” from the comfort of the Diesel Blue W-Caby Faux-Fur Jacket, complete with a dramatic cinched waist and seam pockets. Enjoy the limited quantities of Olipop at your next gallery opening with the dramatic atmosphere of the KHAITE Green Rothen Coat, a felted wool coat with stunning oversized shoulders, in a subtle army-green.

Grab your copy of Susan Sontag’s “Notes on Camp” and stock up on gesso. When the art market rebounds, ensure you’re ready to capture the attention and hearts of collectors and gallerists alike. Though your work speaks for itself, having the outfit to match will elevate you to market superstardom. Bold, indented puffers from Dingyun Zhang tap into the designer’s futuristic world, with an athletic bungee-cord hem and satin construction. From POST ARCHIVE FACTION (PAF), the Blue 7.0 Center Down Jacket is an asymmetrical down puffer with a detachable hood that masters a minimalist and contemporary feel.
