Haven’t stopped thinking about that denim moto jacket spotted on Demi Moore and Emily Ratajkowski — the former wearing it to a film festival and the latter pairing the jacket in a city girl-chic ensemble? Well, we have some good news: You’ll soon be able to shop this wardrobe essential, and it won’t end up costing you an arm and a leg.
The GapStudio Coated Denim Cropped Moto Jacket is part of an upcoming GapStudio holiday drop by Gap Inc.’s creative director Zac Posen, who was appointed to the role in February 2024. Widely believed to be ushering in a new era for the brand, Posen has already confirmed his prowess through iconic moments, like creating a custom white shirtdress for Anne Hathaway (a red carpet replica dropped online, in the form of the Gap White Poplin Shirtdress, and sold out in a flash); inspiring Julia Fox to style said shirtdress with a neon green wide-brimmed hat that Charli XCX would no doubt call “brat”; and dressing Cynthia Erivo in a gothic gown whose hood competed with the mermaid silhouette for the title of “most breathtaking feature.”

When it comes to cropped jackets — another one of GapStudio’s recent celebrity-loved offerings — it’s safe to say that shoppers are obsessed. Case in point: Gigi Hadid donned two wildly different cropped jacket numbers while shooting for Maybelline earlier in March, TikTok influencers have been cropping their own Carhartt jacket purchases to create all-American looks, and there was also no shortage of cropped trench coats at spring 2025 New York Fashion Week. Moto jackets, specifically, are projected to skyrocket in popularity even more come 2025. Need evidence of the fact? Look no further than the Pinterest Predicts 2025 Trend Report, which has gauged billions of Pinterest searches and engagement metrics to home in on the fact that the “moto boho” aesthetic will be oh-so-hot next year. Motorcycle jackets fit seamlessly into the whole texture-rich, rugged-yet-feminine vibe—adjectives that perfectly encapsulate Moore and Ratajkowski’s respective takes on Posen’s GapStudio Coated Denim Cropped Moto Jacket.
In the case of Moore, the actress sported the jacket at the San Francisco Film Festival Awards in unison with the GapStudio Ribbed Tank Maxi Dress, proving just how versatile (and compatible!) items from GapStudio’s soon-to-launch collection are. Moore utilizes the jacket to add a bit of edgy intrigue to the all-black maxi dress, while still keeping the look elegant via striking jewelry choices. Those interested in following in her footsteps shouldn’t be afraid of a similar high-low moment, which can involve layering the GapStudio Coated Denim Cropped Moto Jacket over a cocktail dress and turning heads in the process.

Ratajkowski, on the other hand, was spotted interpreting Posen’s moto jacket in a way that put proportion play to the forefront. Like what you see? Make sure the item’s fitted, cropped silhouette contrasts with oversized pants, like a pair of baggy jeans. Ratajkowski’s own gently ballooning cargo pants take the whole New-Yorker-in-the-fall aesthetic to new levels (and those Timberlands are just the cherry on top).
