Bomber jacket

The invariable attribute of youth style - a jacket-bomber jacket - has finally taken its rightful place in the domestic fashion. This stylish wave came from the USA and Europe, and at first it was little understood by a Russian person.

. Therefore, now that the fears and doubts about wearing such a thing in everyday outfits have receded into the background, we suggest finding out what a bomber jacket is, how to choose it and what to wear with!

Answering this question, it should immediately be indicated: there is both a jacket and a jacket, called a bomber. Bomber jackets appeared much earlier. The famous style was developed by the American owners of the flying club in 1929. Brothers Robert and John Douglas kept a small club, which carried out demonstration flights and excursions for tourists. And since the aircraft cabins were open at that time, it was possible to be on board only in very warm clothes.

Such jackets for pilots and passengers of the first half of the 20th century became subsequently a fashionable trend related to the style of military. They are sewn from leather, suede, jeans and other dense and warm materials. Recently, light models designed for the summer are more and more common.

The term "jacket-bomber" should be understood as a sports jacket with logos, numbers or letters. Initially, such sweaters became an attribute of the uniform of American and European educational institutions. In the middle of the last century, bomber jackets were worn exclusively by schoolchildren and students in the United States and advanced European countries.But today it is an invariable part of the youth style of clothing, so bombers with stripes, numbers, letters or the names of foreign educational institutions are not a sign of belonging to them, but simply a fashionable chip.

In fact, whatever you call a bomber - a jacket or a jacket - this is a great thing for the offseason. It will perfectly warm you in the early spring or late fall, and if the model is made of waterproof material, then such a bomber will also protect from rain.

The main distinguishing feature of the bomber is a puffy (voluminous) silhouette, a short length (barely covering the navel), tight knitted cuffs, a collar and a lower hem - on elastic bands, deep pockets. The fastener is most often with a zipper or buttons.

The bomber jacket looks very stylish and relevant in any wardrobe - male, female, childish. But since we have already decided that the jacket-bomber (unlike the jacket-bomber) is a sports-style item, it is important to understand all the features inherent in such a thing.

If we talk about the most relevant jacket-bomber now, the first thing to do is highlight the sports model. Such sweaters are usually made of knitted fabrics, richly decorated with inscriptions, numbers, capital letters.

In a separate group of models, bombers with a volume cut can be distinguished. Such varieties are more like jackets. They differ in increased volume not only in the area of ​​the body, but also on the sleeves. They look especially stylish when they are casually thrown over without fastening.

Quilted bombers are even more like demi-season jackets. Such materials have not been trending for the first season, and now in such a performance you can also find a fashionable jacket in the aviator style. Finishing with stitches can cover the whole jacket as a whole, and touch only its individual elements - sleeves, front, selective sections.

Another group of bomber models is bold, vibrant variations made in experiments with colors, fabrics, textures. If in the traditional view the bomber is either military (plain, leather or suede), or sports (knitted with inscriptions), then absolutely any material and pattern can be used here.

A traditional bomber jacket is most often made from knitted fabrics. For example, from the footer. Depending on the purpose of the season, it can be with or without lining. In any case, in such a blouse is always cozy and warm. Stripes in the form of letters and numbers are usually made of contrasting textured fabrics - velvet or satin.

Leather bombers are also relevant now. Even if it is a thin jacket that completely repeats the cut of a sports model, it may well be made of leather. And it can even have characteristic stripes, or it can be monophonic - the main thing is that this material does not cease to be fashionable. This also applies to jeans.

Now, when eclecticism does not leave fashion shows, a bomber made of different fabrics will look very original and appropriate. As a rule, companion fabric is reserved for the sleeves, and the rest of the jacket falls on the main material. You can also pay attention to bomber blended fabrics. They are distinguished by high strength and wear resistance.

Bomber lining is almost always an integral part of this unique style. So, in light models, it performs an exclusively aesthetic function, always being a contrast to the main color of the jacket. In insulated models, the lining has a practical role. Fleece patterns are especially good. They will always warm in bad weather.

Modern women's jacket-bomber jacket only remotely resembles its prototype. This season any bold models and their combinations in the wardrobe are possible. Eclecticism is still in honor, so a stylish bomber should be multi-colored, sewn from two or more fabrics. And of course, the "combination of incongruous" in the outfit with a bomber should be present.

For fans of the military style, there is the opportunity to appear on the streets of the city in all its glory. He does not go out of fashion, and a jacket-bomber jacket will become the central element of the ensemble in this stylish direction.

Conservative fashionistas should pay attention to models of bombers, made in a restrained color scheme and having a simple, uncomplicated cut. Such jackets of a fashionable aviator style will allow you to create feminine images, but at the same time strict and incredibly stylish.

For young and carefree young ladies there is always the opportunity to fool around a bit and show their eccentric character in everyday outfits. And the no less relevant today models of soft-bombers, made in bright colors or completely covered with cartoon prints, will help them in this.

Women's bombers in white or gray are very relevant this season. In both summer and autumn-spring periods, stylish aviator-style sweaters in this color scheme will be a great option for completing an outfit. Moreover, stylists recommend trying both plain and two-tone models. And the combination of these two tones is now very much in demand.

Black is the solution for all time. Women's bombers in this classic range can be of various styles. But special attention should be paid to the simplest models. They are now in trend. A real hit in your wardrobe will be a lightweight black bomber jacket with a screaming bright orange lining.

Anyone who does not hesitate to fill their wardrobe with bright little things can safely give vent to their feelings. Women's bombers of juicy colors - yellow, blue, green, red - are also very relevant this season. In the latest collections, designers offer the most demanding women of fashion to try on bright blouse-bomber jackets with a metallic shade (lilac, gold, bronze, blue). Such original color schemes are worthy of attention of lovers of unusual outfits for everyday life.

As in any other wardrobe items, there is still room for a wide variety of prints in the rich and diverse range of female bombers. The most popular are plant motifs (flowers, greens, trees, leaves), animal ornaments (birds, feathers, animals themselves or their color), “female things” (hearts, lipstick, kisses), geometry (peas, cage, rhombs, abstract patterns), as well as space-themed prints.

If we are talking about a traditional sports sweater-bomber, then everything is pretty predictable. Patches or embroidery in the form of letters, inscriptions, numbers are made of satin fabrics or threads. Flamboyant options are possible with the addition of rhinestones, shiny threads and other glamorous attributes.

If we consider unsportsmanlike models, then here the designers, as always, give full play to their imagination. For the decor of women's military bombers, rivets, zippers, spikes, massive metal jewelry are actively used. For more feminine models, sequins, lace, decorative brooches, flowers are used.

If the bomber is made in any bright print, additional decor is not applied. All these bold decoration elements are relevant only on plain or two-tone models. Patches look very good on leather or knitted bombers. By the way, they can be made independently, giving the individuality of their thing. The area for decoration most often serves as the front or back, but the sleeves, as a rule, remain intact.

The most win-win option is to combine a bomber jacket with trousers. Jeans, joggers, or formal office wear - it doesn’t matter. Any such ensemble will look organic and appropriate.

Very good female bombers look with dresses. Moreover, almost any model of this elegant female outfit will be perfectly complemented by such a jacket. To create a stylish look, do not fasten the bomber jacket. If it’s cool outside, wind a voluminous scarf around your neck, but leave the jacket open.

Want to wear a skirt bomber? You are welcome! Maxi or midi, pencil or sun - any option will be good. Complete the outfit with high heels to create a feminine look. And if you want to play with the grunge style, feel free to put on rough shoes.

Any model of a female bomber jacket will look great with shorts. And on the basis of this combination, you can get a lot of outfits in a variety of styles. Naughty sports - with sneakers, sneakers; impudent and strict - with loafers, brogues, chelsea; fatal and seductive - with high-heeled shoes or platform ankle boots.

A refreshing spring outfit is a blue-white-red bomber jacket thrown over a romantic white dress. The ensemble is finished off with rude military boots.

For casual style, this outfit can be called classic: a sports bomber jacket, black jeans - tight-fitting and slightly shortened, converse sneakers and a simple black bag with a wide belt. Under the jacket there can be a T-shirt, shirt, pullover, or maybe all at once - it depends on the season!

And here is an example of how a sports bomber can fit perfectly into an office outfit. Strict adherence to one color scheme in each element of the wardrobe allows you to smooth out the difference between such seemingly incompatible styles. The result is an original, but completely organic outfit.

This image is both fatal and romantic. The pastel gamut prevailing in it is neatly accentuated by black accessories and set off by a bright top. Its extreme length hints at the courage of the person who put it on, but the bomber chastely covers up nakedness, only exposing it a little.
