Plus Size Leather Jackets for Women

Are you a rock chick at heart? Then, a plus size leather jacket is just right! Use a leather jacket to turn your outfit from everyday to edgy, or choose a sleek style for effortless elegance. A good leather jacket can be a serious statement piece, ideal for creating a signature look, and is sure never to go out of style.

Punk it up with plus size leather jackets

Although there are many different styles of plus size leather jackets available, the classic black, rocker look is always a winner. Choose a leather jacket with large lapels to get the rock look. For some added punk-inspired charm or biker chic, go for one that is adorned with studs, rivets, or tassels. If you want something with a sweeter edge, look for a jacket with decorative embroidery.

These rock-inspired jackets look good, day or night, with a pair of skinny jeans. A simple scarf, worn loosely knotted around your neck, will elevate the look, giving it some feminine charm. Want to go edgier? Then, just roll up the sleeves of your plus size leather jacket! Keep the plus size accessories to a minimum for the best effect.

Plus size faux leather jackets for the best vegan fashion

Faux leather has come a long way in recent years, and it makes a great alternative for plus size leather jackets. There are many reasons you might prefer a faux leather jacket: it's generally cheaper and suitable for vegans. One thing to keep in mind is that faux leather is less breathable, so a fully lined jacket will feel very hot. If that's a concern, choose a lightweight, unlined jacket.

Faux leather is generally easier to care for than real leather. Always read the garment care label to be sure, but many faux leather garments can be machine-washed, making them ideal for the girl on the go!

Frequently asked questions about our plus size leather jackets for women

How should I take care of my plus size leather jacket?

Plus size leather jackets are real investment pieces. Looked after correctly, a leather jacket should last a very long time. Try to avoid getting it wet. In the case of unexpected rain, leave the jacket to hang dry before putting it away. Do not iron, steam, or machine-wash a leather jacket. Take it to a professional if you need help. Use a leather conditioner regularly to keep a leather jacket supple rather than stiff. It will gradually change in appearance, developing a rich patina, but it should still look good!

What special treatment does a plus size suede jacket need?

Suede is a type of leather, and a plus size suede jacket has its own remarkable sense of style. Suede can be destroyed by liquid, so before you wear your jacket, spray it all over with a protective spray. This will need to be repeated about once a month. Both suede blocks and suede brushes can be used to gently clean and buff the surface of the material, keeping it looking good for longer.

What style of plus size leather jacket will suit a busty figure?

When you have a large bust, it can be hard to find the perfect jacket. For a flattering style, look for a plus size leather jacket with a distinctive V at the neckline. This is often created by the shape of the lapels. Also, choose a zipper jacket rather than buttons. Buttons often gape at the bust, which is unflattering and can shorten your jacket's lifespan! A zipper is easier to wear for busty girls.
