At first glance, the fringe jacket is intimidating. Unless your name is Annie Oakley, you might wonder, how can one possibly get away with wearing something so specific, so evocative, so ... fringed?! But a reframing of the Western staple outside of its rustic roots shows that it has extraordinary versatility. Whether dressed with a suit, contrasted with sweatpants, or thrown on for a night out, it’s a staple you can wear like any other leather jacket. Here, three unexpected ways to style it.

Monochrome dressing has long dominated the style conversation—which makes it ripe for a well-considered update. For fall, it’s a palette of grey, tan, and navy, interchangeable in separates that touch on different silhouettes, weights, and textures, blending and balancing the wardrobe staples of both town and country. A tailored jacket or a pair of trousers take on a softer look with a suede coat or a pair of boots, while final touches in layered pops of color, standout handbags, and a well-placed belt show off a polished look that’s still rough around the edges in all the best ways.

Polo classics to wear now and forever.
