In the new action flick Tomb Raider, Swedish actress Alicia Vikander steals the screen as femme fatale and protagonist Lara Croft. With 2017 marking the year of kickass leading ladies such as Wonder Woman, we are certainly pleased to see the trend continue this year. As the edgy Lara Croft, 29-year-old Vikander suits the role with her tight-fitting, subtly sexy on-screen wardrobe. Our eyes are drawn to this particular rebellious black leather bomber, which Vikander’s character has paired with a dark hoodie. If you want to bundle up during the March chill (and channel Lara Croft vibes yourself), it may be worthwhile to draw your cues from the star. Here are a few inspired jackets that will help you master the Tomb Raider look today.
VearFit Funterium Hooded Black Genuine Leather Jacket, $245: This textured leather topper features a curve-hugging fit and a built-in hood. The quilted panels also help to bring some character to a classic jacket, and bring a streetwise vibe to the design.
Soia Kyo Allison Leather Jacket, $750: With its sweatshirt hood, this jacket from Canadian label Soia Kyo certainly has a casual yet fierce Lara Croft feel. For a finishing touch, the moto collar and contrasting silver studs help to add visual interest.
Munderingskompagniet Hooded Jacket, $817: Although it is made from sheepskin, this jacket is detailed with a loose cotton hood. Unlike a more traditional leather bomber, this piece looks a bit more like a windbreaker, for an easygoing take on the leather outerwear trend.
