Diane Kruger
It’s no secret that Diane Kruger is our sartorial spirit animal. Just take a look at how she managed to mirror the lookbook presentation of this statement Valentino Resort 2017 satin jacket complete with parrot and floral accents by incorporating the fashion house’s blue shirtdress and that see-through black lace skirt before adding a real-world kick with a pair of Christian Louboutin Pigalle pumps.

Olivia Palermo
Olivia Palermo is a real pro at making her outfits look effortlessly cool without an ounce of try-hard. Her black breezy blouse and slim leather cropped pants with exposed zippers were elevated by a draped embroidered Topshop reversible bomber, not to mention that maroon croc bag and those embroidered mules.

Olivia Palermo
The style star loves to repurpose pieces, so you probably won’t be surprised to learn that she also sported the jacket to London Fashion Week just a month prior. This time, she paired it with a white oversized sweater, cropped black leather pants, teal sunglasses and strappy red pumps.

Georgia May Jagger
Georgia May Jagger stepped out in a whimsical incarnation at the Thomas Sabo Press Cocktail in Berlin. In order to keep the focus mainly on the jacket, she added in a white tee and dark-wash jeans, though her multitude of necklaces and those heavily embellished sandals gave the bomber a bit of competition.

Jared Leto
Jared Leto loves a good bomber. The Oscar winner stood out from his Suicide Squad co-stars at Comic-Con in a pink Gucci jacket, a white tee, patched black jeans as well as checkered Vans slip-ons.

Jared Leto
In a classic case of life imitating art, he slipped on Gucci’s Spring 2017 Menswear monogrammed blue satin bomber jacket for Gucci's Milan Men's Fashion Week Spring 2017 presentation. A white dress shirt, splattered jeans, aviators and white-lace combat boots wrapped up the front row look.

Olivia Wilde
Olivia Wilde took in the NBA All-Star Game in Toronto (alongside beau Jason Sudeikis) wearing a Saint Laurent printed satin bomber jacket. The actress kept the rest of her look pretty low-key in the form of a white tee, cropped jeans, a long necklace and black boots.

Fergie
Saint Laurent’s graphic bomber has quickly become a celeb favorite. Fergie not only attended Adam Lambert and Queen’s performance, but she actually rocked the same jacket as Adam did up on stage (of course, Fergie put her own twist on things with black denim cutoffs, fingerless gloves, a bandana and black knee-high boots).

Alessandra Ambrosio
Alessandra Ambrosio had a ton of fun at Coachella this year. Case in point: The supermodel was head and shoulders above the other attendees outfitted in Saint Laurent’s borderline infamous bomber, a black top, denim cutoffs, two chokers and mirrored shades.

Kourtney Kardashian

Now going just by her first name, Cheryl (formerly Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and Cheryl Cole) departed Jamie’s Italian restaurant in London in a Chloe Resort 2016 Reversible Embroidered Tech Satin Bomber Jacket.

Irene Kim
Irene Kim had a totally different take on Chloe’s far-from-basic bomber at Paris Fashion Week back in March. She partnered hers with a ribbed neutral sweater, a black belted leather miniskirt, an ornate gold choker, a black Chloe crossbody and lace-up boots.

Margaret Zhang
We frankly didn’t know where to look first when we spotted Margaret Zhang at Milan Fashion Week Fall 2016. Decked out in head-to-toe Gucci, somehow the embroidered silk-satin bomber jacket managed to coexist with that map-printed pleated skirt and those bow-accented lace-up shoes.

Chelsea Leyland
The DJ put her own spin on the satin bomber craze at the Miu Miu Women's Tales 11 screening by punctuating her blue floral embroidered version and jeans combo with gilded footwear. Chelsea Leyland also carried a red micro bag.

Who says a bomber doesn’t belong with a fancy dress? Certainly not Christine Centenera. The editor layered a baby blue Gucci jacket with embroidered back over a dark-colored dress with cut-out neckline complemented by black peep-toe booties at Milan Fashion Week Fall 2016.

Bomber jackets have been a style staple for celebs practically all year. The puffed-up jackets have proved just as popular in the warmer weather as they were this past winter.

Satin bomber jackets featuring eye-catching embroidery or head-turning patterns have dominated everything from the red carpet to street style and even Comic-Con. And these latest must-haves are equally favored by the ladies and the fellas.
Big-name fashion houses like Saint Laurent, Valentino, Gucci and Chloe have all jumped on the satin bomber bandwagon, but you don’t have to save up every penny from now until Christmas to rock the trend. Thanks to brands like Zara and Topshop, lower-cost iterations are starting to penetrate the masses. For some style inspiration on how to pull off the flashy pieces courtesy of your favorite stars, simply scroll through the slideshow above.
