Solange Knowles vs Nicole Richie in Esteban Cortazar

Beyonce’s younger, and dare we say funkier sister Solange Knowles, was the first to be seen wearing this Esteban Cortazar satin white cape jacket in New York back in September. Solange went for the bang on trend all white look, choosing to go with a white mini skirt and a tiny Kayu box bag, to style the jacket. She finished it off with a pair of diamond sandals and statement Carelle mini-hoop earrings.

Did Nicole Richie pull it off better? The designer slash TV personality, was spotted wearing the exact same double-faced jacket this month while she strolled around Montaigne Market in Paris. She matched it with black leather skinnies, a pair of ankle boots and a large tote. The look was ‘casual chic Nicole’, which she finished off with her own old-school House of Harlow 1960 Layla sunglasses.

Do you like the fresh take on this classic jacket as much as I do? Then get the original Cortazar jacket for £975! If you’re on the look out for a slightly cheaper alternative, check out this Jil Sander Lupo Bomber Jacket for £357 and if you want a really good bargain, then try this cream crepe blazer on sale for only £25!

You have the chance to interpret the white trend however you like with this jacket – its stunning and both celebs made it work but Who wore it better? My vote goes to Solange. She’s a real fashion icon, who is never caught looking anything but fashion-forward, and I think she looks way better, which surprises seeing as Nicole’s the one with a fashion line? But do you agree?
