10 stylish aviator jackets inspired by Gucci

As the Milan Fashion Week kick off, I have already found my next season must-have piece courtesy of Gucci.

The Gucci aviator jacket has it all. I particularly love how creative director Alessandro Michele has incorporated the traditional stripes of cuffs with new modern details, such as the orange padded lining.

For me, this jacket works because he has given it an oversized shape that you don't normally see in his collections. But it works perfectly when worn with cute mini dresses, which is how the look was styled in the show. The jacket would look equally great styled in a more masculine way, with a pair of straight leg trousers and shirt or simply with your favourite jeans and jumper - a perfect off duty look.

When looking for an oversized shape either go up a few notches or look in the menswear section. The aviator is a wardrobe classic and there have always been a lot of similar styles coming through year on year. This Gucci option may influence new designs from other brands, but I predict whatever yours looks like this style will be a huge hit next winter, so get ahead of the game and invest in one now.

Here's the best of the rest to start you off.
