Meghan Markle's Hermès bomber jacket: the chicest alternatives to shop now

Championing the balloon sleeve, this navy piece by Simone Rocha is the perfect way to inject your outfit with a sense of drama, while keeping things rich and understated in the shade department.

Hayley Menzies excels in quirky prints, and this piece featuring a cowgirl on her steed poses no exception. The five-colour jacquard design is high impact and the gold domed buttons have a luxe, polished feel.

In a flashy silver hue, this leather-effect bomber by Zara is giving major Space Age drama. The crinkled effect feels textural and cool and the silhouette is unfussy, allowing the metallic finish to take centre stage. 

Cut from smooth lambskin leather, this maroon bomber bypasses the traditional flat collar in favour of a cosy shearling. The shape is boxy and cool, and lends itself to a relaxed layering moment.

This two-tone bomber by H&M looks far more expensive than it actually is thanks to luxe-looking neutrals. The internal padding gives it shape and the simple press-stud pocket on the sleeve adds a sense of utilitarian cool.

Partly constructed from recycled polyester, this earthy khaki bomber by Massimo Dutti is seriously wearable. The non-traditional quilting shape feels fresh and interesting, and the down interior will keep you cosy all season long.

Adorned with light-reflecting rhinestones, this denim bomber by Rowen Rose takes the classic style into fresh territory. The boxy fit feels relaxed and cool, and the glitzy finish feels utterly perfect for party season.

Created from sheepskin leather with a viscose lining, Whistles' 'Laura' bomber feels sleek and timeless. Featuring matching ribbed collar and cuff detailing, the effect is polished and uniform.

In a dark sandy hue, this oversized bomber by Mango feels utilitarian and cool. The flat collar and round neck detailing feels classic, and it would look great with jeans as well as tailored flares. 

This shearling bomber by Chloé is perfect for injecting your outfit with a splash of cosiness. The gold-tone hardware looks categorically luxe and the biker buckle provides an edgy focal point. 

With a slightly sporty air, this cream bomber jacket by River Island is super wearable. The bouclé finish feels polished, but the cropped fit gives it an air of cool.

An ode to the oversized silhouette, this sand-coloured jacket by Khaite would make for a great wardrobe investment if you're into your neutrals. I love the slouchiness of the shape and the gleaming silver hardware. 

With a retro varsity feel, this monochrome bomber by Givenchy feels super versatile for everyday wear. I love the off-white accents - I'm a sucker for visible topstitching - and the duality of texture.

In a pretty, cool neutral shade, this bomber by Anthropologie has endless styling possibilities. It would go equally well with combat trousers and a baseball cap, and over a lustrous midi for major cool-girl appeal. Utilitarian fanatics will love the pocket detailing.

This wool-effect bomber by high street stalwart M&S has been doing the rounds on Instagram, and I'm into it. I love the cosiness of the finish, the clean neckline and the fact that the pockets sit flat against the main body as to not disrupt the silhouette.
