Let’s be completely honest, florals jackets can be hit or miss because they can have a novelty aspect to their design. So, the first thing you’ll need to do is find one with an easy base color to work with — like this one. The tricky part of the design that actually makes this jacket work — the track stripe.
Why This Jacket Works
- Simple base color. Black is such a foundational color that can ground a floral pattern without even trying and works to making this jacket approachable
- The pops of red are washed out. If the red was a candy apple hue, it would red completely different
- The track stripe is a visual divider from the front to back of this jacket
