  • The trendiest down jackets of this winter

    Now a winter essential to withstanding the low temperatures, the down jacket has long been the topic of controversy. For years, this quilted staple was the black sheep of winter wardrobes, often criticized for its bulky, sometimes unflattering silhouette…

    And yet, over time and seasons, wardrobes have leaned more towards functionality and practicality. The most cutting-edge fashion houses and brands have successfully highlighted the potential of this piece. So much so that the puffer jacket has earned its own special place. A prime example? The Dsquared2 runway show at the latest Fall/Winter 2025-2026 Fashion Week.
