As the leaves turn brown and the days become cooler, the dramatic dressers like me are pulling out their faux fur, animal print and leather jackets to make the grey days feel a little more fun.
By now, we’ve all seen that M&S Dalmatian faux fur jacket. The jacket, which has a striking similarity to Carelli’s covetable designs, went viral and promptly sold out. It’s continued to dominate social media feeds, becoming one of M&S’s most sought-after items.
This follows the high street stalwart’s first-ever London Fashion Week catwalk celebrating 100 years of fashion at the iconic Design Museum in London.
While the viral jacket may be sold out, M&S is brimming with jackets that are just as good, if not better. I’ve found the five best M&S jackets I suggest adding to your basket, pronto.
M&S Satin Padded Faux Fur Bomber Jacket
M&S/The Standard
This satin finish, lightly padded jacket is a great day-to-night piece that feels both practical and playful. The faux fur lining that runs down the front is cosy on the skin but adds a fun, elevated element.

M&S/The Standard
Bored of your standard parka? This waisted parka with a faux fur trim and funnel neck combines the classic wardrobe staple with contemporary styles to give you the perfect cold weather look.

For those having an animal print autumn, this cropped faux fur funnel neck jacket is a must-have for your wardrobe. The shearling-style texture and hook fastenings will give your cosy looks that little bit of extra glamour.
M&S Faux Fur Zebra Print Short Jacket
M&S/The Standard
Staying on the topic of animal print, this short-length zebra print faux fur jacket has a throw-on-and-go appeal. The statement piece is finished with a round neck, drop shoulders and a zip fastening. If you’re looking to get into wearing animal print, zebra is a great place to start.

Classic yet modern, this faux leather jacket has checked lining and a funnel neck for a distinctive finish. Easily paired with jeans to elevate even the simplest of outfits, every autumn wardrobe should have a leather jacket.
