cropped jacket

Waist-length cover-up

A cropped jacket is a jacket cut shorter than standard length, typically ending at or above the waist rather than at the hip.

The style works with high-waisted pants and skirts, creating a defined silhouette: She threw a cropped jacket over her sundress.

Cropped versions exist across jacket types—denim, leather, blazers, and cardigans.
