The most stylish quilted jackets to invest in now
From Burberry and Ganni to The Frankie Shop, we round up the best styles to buy now
It may not feel like it but spring is just around the corner, and there is nothing more relaxed, versatile and stylish for the season ahead than the coveted quilted jacket.
Seen on the Tod's, Dior and Isabel Marant runways, and loved by celebrities and influencers alike, the style has already become a new-season favourite – and thanks to its low-key silhouette, is unlikely to date anytime soon.
A new take on a classic puffer jacket, quilted jackets are a little more refined – less bulky but still cosy. Depending on your desired activity, the jackets generally fall into two camps – utilitarian waterproof styles (think browns, khakis and blacks) or patterned fabric jackets more synonymous with traditional quilting. Whichever you go for, you can choose from diagonal, round or diamond quilting; cropped, long, oversized or fitted.
With this much choice, we've searched both designer's new collections as well as the high street to bring you our edit of the best new-season quilted jackets to invest in now. From Burberry to The Frankie Shop, Ganni to Totême, each design will last (and keep you stylish and warm) for years to come. For late summer and autumn, wear your quilted jacket with a tee or a thin cardi and when the winter hits, just add a cosy jumper underneath.

Totême’s quilted shell jacket is a minimalist's dream. Made from recycled polyester, its details include diamond print stitching all over, piped hems and a collarless neckline.
This coat balances vintage with new-season design perfectly. Featuring a corduroy collar, diamond quilting, oversized pockets and a front press stud opening – it doesn't skimp on the details. Wear with jeans and flats for a day out in the city.
Made from recycled polyester, this mid-length, diamond quilted jacket from Ganni has a relaxed, oversized fit, making it ideal for layering over jumpers in the winter months.
You may have rediscovered the quilted trend after The Frankie Shop's Teddy coat went viral a few seasons ago – and now the New York-based brand is back with more quilted styles. This relaxed, slightly longer coat is made from ripstock. It has a boxy fit and a collarless neckline which adds an edge to an otherwise simple design.
We couldn't resist sneaking another Totême design into this edit. The brand excels in its selection of quilted jackets and we particularly love this camel, collared design.
Inject your spring wardrobe with some serious colour by investing in Avavav's patterned shell jacket in purple, which has a real Eighties feel about it. Team with tailored black trousers and heels for an excellent evening look.
This chic collarless jacket from Closed is a great choice for spring with its lightweight feel and grey hue. Throw over your dresses or layer up your denim.
Another lovely option for the spring season is this white Vivetta style, which features delicate pink detailing on the collar. It would look great paired with a mini skirt and loafers.
This cropped, boxy style would make a wonderful addition to your weekend wardrobe, whether worn over skirts, jeans or even luxe trackies and loafers.
The sleeveless quilted jacket is an excellent tool for layering as we slowly head into the warmer months. We love this style from Parisian label Soeur.
