Forget boring denim jackets - these 9 styles are real eye-catchers

Denim jackets are indispensable for many people during the transitional period. Interpreted in a modern way, they look all the more stylish. Here are nine interesting pieces for your spring wardrobe.

The good old denim jacket. It never goes out of fashion and is a tried and tested classic for the transitional season. It's just that something that hardly stands out is usually a little boring. But it doesn't always have to be the standard mid-blue version in a trucker cut.

Special washes, unusual cuts and surprising details make denim jackets look much more interesting and fresh. I have nine suggestions here: four from the men's and five from the women's department - but feel free.

Workwear vibes

Castelly cut, patch pockets, contrast collar: this model from Jack & Jones is basically a workwear jacket in denim. The dark wash in a raw denim look gives the jacket a chic touch.

Soft green

Denim was traditionally dyed with indigo, which is why the robust fabric is still associated with blue today. But it can actually come in pretty much any colour imaginable. For example, in a subtle pastel green, like this example from the sustainable German brand Armedangels.

Grunge look

If the model above is a little too green for you, here's a compromise: this denim jacket from Dickies is simple, but looks extremely stylish thanks to the faded wash with a green tint - and in the best, casual way.

Versatile creamy white

Combining denim with denim can be tricky, as different washes can easily clash. You won't have this problem with this cream-coloured model from Jack & Jones. It goes with almost all colours, including various shades of denim. The zip fastening is also special, as denim jackets usually come with buttons.

Elegant cut

Denim jackets can be casual. No question about it. But when it comes to sophisticated looks, they quickly reach their limits. Not this one from Vila. The cut is reminiscent of a Chanel tweed jacket and can easily be worn with more chic outfits.

Wrap blazer

When it comes to elegant denim jackets: This dark-coloured model from Only is a refreshing mix of blazer and kimono. Ideal for looks that are subtle but not over the top.

Modern retro charm

This sand-coloured denim jacket from Selected Femme stands out from the crowd with subtle details such as the concealed button fastening. The modern silhouette, boxy and slightly cropped, creates an exciting contrast to the subtle retro flair of the extra-long bell sleeves.

Leo print

At first glance, this very freely interpreted denim jacket from Vero Moda looks like a blouse. This statement piece in a trendy animal print has no buttons or zips; instead, three pretty bows serve as a fastening. A playful piece that can be worn as a jacket or a top.

Cosy collar

This model from Pieces is also not immediately recognisable as a denim jacket. Thanks to the buttery cream colour, it can be combined in a variety of ways - even with blue jeans. The tone-on-tone buttons blend seamlessly into the clean design, while the fluffy contrast collar adds a cosy touch and a new texture.
