Bomber Jacket
Bomber jackets are a great alternative to dinner jackets for New Year’s Eve. However, the occasion requires more luxurious models than the typical nylon bomber featured in most men’s wardrobe. Instead, consider bombers with sequins or velvet with sartorial cut.

Biker jacket
If you have a biker jacket in your wardrobe, you can use it to form a New Year’s Eve look with a rebellious point. Consider following Ewan McGregor’s example at the premiere of ‘Mortdecai’, and combine it with a formal shirt, bow tie, side band trousers and Brogue ankle boots.
Velvet is a very suitable fabric for New Year’s Eve jackets, including biker jackets. Velvet bikers are interesting allies if you want to differentiate yourself from the rest with a personal and contemporary touch.
