The Frankie Shop’s quilted jacket is all over Instagram for another year – here’s where to buy it

The Frankie Shop quilted jacket was big news on Instagram in 2021, and as we edge into another autumn, its experiencing something of a renaissance. Keen to know why every influencer and editor on the continent seems to be obsessed? You’ve come to the right place. 

We all know how it works: summer ends (sob), autumn rolls in far quicker than most of us were ready for, and we all jump into our coat wardrobes head first without actually checking the temperature outside. Dark nights = freeing cold days, surely. Sound familiar? One glance around the train/tube/bus on your morning commute will confirm that you are indeed not the only one sweltering as a duvet coat wraps itself prematurely around your body.

Why is it that we make this same mistake every year? Sure, ‘transitional dressing’ is an overused phrase – but it’s for a very good reason. And that 8:30am version of yourself who just decided that it’s not quite cold enough for today’s winter coat will be very grateful for you realising the art of ‘transitional dressing’ sooner rather than later.

Naturally, many have already realised this – which is why this autumn’s hottest (not literally, don’t panic) jacket is constantly needing to be re-stocked. We are, of course, talking about The Frankie Shop’s quilted ripstop jacket.

FRANKIE SHOP Quilted Padded Ripstop Jacket

A hit with just about every influencer and fashion editor on Instagram, the Frankie Shop quilted jacket is undoubtedly THE go-to outerwear option right now for everyone with their finger on the pulse.

Padded enough to provide warmth in the autumn breeze, light enough to avoid any sort of overheating on the commute (CRUCIAL), and a super chic, wearable style, this is a casual coat which is universally flattering thanks to its oversized shape and thigh-skimming hemline. Inspired by traditional army surplus liner jackets, it has a collarless neckline and sizeable pockets.
