Shacket Meaning

What is a shacket, when did it come into style, and how do you actually wear it? Let's start from the beginning. A shacket is quite literally a shirt and a jacket combined. Pretty simple, right? Think of it as a over-sized, thin jacket. It can be worn as a top in colder weather or as a jacket. There are women's and men's shackets. It definitely comes from the 90's trends that we've been seeing in fashion recently. Gen Z really seems to love oversized, baggy items. Everything from pants, tops, wide-leg bottoms, and coats. 

How To Wear a Shacket

Shackets are simple to style. I personally suggest wearing them with more fitting items. Such as a fitted top underneath and skinny jeans. Yes, I know skinny jeans are less popular than they were but I am a strong believer in wearing something fitted paired with something loose. The shacket being the over-sized item paired with something tighter on the body. This creates a more flattering, balanced shape. You don't want your clothes to eat you up in a baggy top AND baggy bottoms.
