This London Brand Just Nailed Fall’s Biggest Outerwear Trend
And it goes with literally everything in your closet.
Moto jackets are so reliable that it’s hard to call them a trend, but one London brand has blown the style staple out of the water — and I can almost guarantee you don’t have anything like it hanging in your closet. Fighting words? Maybe, but I don’t think I’m wrong. ALIGNE just dropped a collarless moto jacket that distills multiple runway trends into a surprisingly wearable silhouette that manages to be both timeless and utterly of-the-moment, and it’s already threatening to sell out.
The Outerwear Style Your Wardrobe Needs
What sets the ALIGN moto apart, as you can see, is the collarless neckline — a design trend lifted directly from the runways that you’ve probably noticed showing up on everything from blazers to vests. It’s surprisingly practical: Without any lapels, you’re free to layer it over camisoles or turtlenecks while maintaining a streamlined look. (Not to mention, it’ll leave plenty of room for scarves.) The sleeves are cut with a gentle curve, tapping yet another catwalk-approved style, but aren’t so exaggerated that they’ll easily date. Rendered in a boxy cut made from supple bonded leather, it has a soft yet structured feel that’s grounded enough to throw on with a pair of jeans and a polo sweater, but the subtle refinement makes it an edgy yet elegant choice for dressing up.
More From The Collection To Love
It would be remiss of me not to mention the rest of the key players in ALIGN’s leather collection, which remixes key fall styles in a way that feels genuinely fresh. Leather transforms wardrobe staples into statement-makers, and trending shapes become even more coveted beneath its unexpected texture. From classic T-shirts (really) to the chic top every fashion girlie’s been wearing, these are the seasonal pieces to snap up now.
1. A Sleek Blazer In The Chicest Silhouette
Think “ladies who lunch,” but they’re ordering fries and dirty martinis. With a collarless crew neckline and split waist, the Daphne blazer proves just as much of a fashion heavy-hitter as the moto jacket, with a sophisticated military silhouette that lends well to dressing up in edgy leather. An adjustable buckle at the back ensures the tailored shape will fit you exactly right the moment you slip it on, too.

2. A Boxy Leather Tee For Your Cool-Girl Era
Jeans and a T-shirt take on new meaning when you slip into the LB Frank leather tee. Its slightly boxy cut is accented by structured seams and longer half-sleeves for a look that’s peak downtown-cool, in buttery leather that elevates the otherwise unassuming wardrobe staple; you could even get away with wearing it to the office over a sharp pair of trousers.
- Available sizes: XS — XL
- Available colors: 1
3. An Edgy Take On The Classic Button-Down Shirt
Your OCBD could never. The Alba shirt turns menswear tailoring on its head in rich bonded leather, with a femme waisted silhouette and princess seams that create a tailored shape despite the leather’s natural structure. Wear it to work when you have better plans later that day, or paired with denim on the weekend.
- Available sizes: XS — XL
- Available colors: 1
4. The Chic Vest Every Fashion Editor’s Wearing This Year
PSA: The crewneck vest isn’t going anywhere, and the Leo waistcoat renders the trend in moody leather that seamlessly transitions it into fall. Like the Daphne blazer, it features an adjustable buckle for a custom-tailored fit whether you’re wearing it solo as a going-out top or layered over a fitted turtleneck on chillier days. (And yes, you’ll wear it a lot.)
