Marks and Spencer shoppers are snapping up a new autumn jacket which is climbing up the site's best-seller list. The Faux Leather Checked Funnel Neck Bomber Jacket is the perfect layer to add to both your casual and evening wardrobes.
Fashioned in a rich chocolate brown colour, the faux leather bomber has a trendy funnel neck which can be flipped down to reveal a contrast check print underneath. Priced at £65, the jacket has a laid-back, oversized look with a zip and button fastening.
Availability and reviews
At the time of writing, sizes 12 to 22 are available, with the 6, 8, 10, and 24 already sold out. Shoppers can check for up to date availability over on the Marks and Spencer website.
One speedy shopper left a review online which reads: "Fabulous jacket! Bought as a gift for my daughter she was over the moon. It looks and feels fabulous. Would definitely recommend."
Another pleased shopper added: "Gorgeous autumn jacket with checked detail. I lke the collar and pocket details."
Although, one buyer wasn't a fan of the oversized fit, writing: "Not a fan of the oversized fit and this was huge, even if I'd downsized to an 8 it would have swamped me. Shame as it is a fab jacket but need a different style. It's also very light considering the price, wouldn't keep you warm on a cold day."
Alternative jackets
For those who prefer something more fitted, River Island sells the Brown Faux Leather Fitted Drummer Jacket for £59, featuring a funnel neck, cinched waist detail, and large oversized buttons.
Shoppers looking for some other autumn jackets might consider Uniqlo's Zip-Up Short Jacket, £39.90, which features a crisp cotton-blend material with corduroy accents on the collar and cuffs. Cut to a short length, it's a great jacket to pair with jeans and dresses.
Available in two versatile shades of dark brown and natural, the latter features a contrasting tan collar and inner cuff lining which you can turn up for a laid-back look. Although, this design is oversized which is something to keep in mind when selecting your size.
M&S London Fashion Week
In other M&S news, the retailer celebrated 100 years of style last week, holding its very first London Fashion Week show on Friday, September 18. The 'see now, buy now' catwalk showcased the very best of the retailer's brands, including items from M&S Collection, Per Una, and Autograph.
With all of the items dropping on the site as the show began, shoppers can officially bag runway outfits at more affordable prices. One item we've got our eye on is the Denim Split Front Midi Straight Skirt, £38, which features a flattering high waist and a front split for easy movement.
Available in sizes 6 to 18, it has a straight fit with angled pockets and belt loops. The skirt appeared on the runway as part of look 40, styled with a Per Una sheer high neck blouse (£70), suede stiletto boots (£140) and a collared leather jacket which has already sold out online.
