Fall Planning - The Essential Fall Jacket

Building Your Fall Capsule Wardrobe: The Essential Fall Jacket

As autumn breezes sweep through Michigan, the question of what to wear in the Midwest becomes all about layers, warmth, and timeless style. For our clients at Joshua Gold Custom Clothier, we’re honing in on one cornerstone piece: a well-crafted, heavier-weight jacket that forms the backbone of your fall wardrobe.

Why a Heavier Jacket is Your Fall MVP

In the crisp, varied climate of the Midwest, a jacket in a luxurious wool-silk blend, a classic tweed, or a sumptuous cashmere isn’t just about keeping warm—it’s about versatility. These fabrics not only provide that extra layer of insulation but also deliver a refined texture that can be dressed up or down with ease.

Styling Flexibility: From Smart to Casual

Think of this jacket as the anchor of your fall capsule wardrobe. Pair it with a chocolate brown moleskin trouser for a smart yet relaxed look, or opt for flannel or corduroy pants to add depth and a bit of rugged texture. Each combination offers a different vibe, making it simple to shift from a day at the office to cocktail hour at Big Rock.
