There are certain fashion items that will never go out of style—a houndstooth jacket is unquestionably one of them. We see the classic print on the runways season after season—styled in modern and fresh ways—bringing a dose of sophistication to every outfit.

While there are a number of chic heritage prints out there, the traditional houndstooth print is a two-tone textile pattern characterized by broken checks most often designed in black and white. Fun fact: The print does in fact have something to do with its canine-sounding name—which was inspired by the uneven shape of a hound dog's teeth.

Nowadays, the print can be seen in so many styles of coats and jackets, including puffers, bomber jackets, and of course sleek blazers. No matter what silhouette you choose, the pattern unquestionably adds a touch of effortless elegance to every ensemble.
