Coats You Need in Your Closet

Must-have outerwear with enduring appeal.

When it comes to fashion, there’s no time of year quite like the fall. Feeling almost like the start of a new year, it marks the perfect opportunity for a personal style reset. It’s your time to shine, to embrace new trends, and to elevate your outfits by layering and accessorizing.  

The most important layer of all is undoubtedly the coat. From the runway to real life, let’s explore some of the standout trends that are leading the way for the fall and winter seasons.

Oversized silhouettes

The oversized silhouette was not just a passing trend of seasons’ past. In fact, its reign continues as one of this year’s most-wanted coat styles. These roomy silhouettes offer comfort and a relaxed elegance that’s easy to style with both dressed-down and dressed-up looks. The exaggerated shoulders, cocoon-like shapes, and voluminous designs exude a sense of effortless style and a touch of drama to your fall and winter ensembles.

This season, we’ve been seeing bold hues like pinks and reds take over the runway as an accent colour, so stay on-trend with our Stretch wool blend coat double-face wool blend coat—the perfect last layer to add a vibrant pop of colour.

In the trenches

As summer turns to fall, one of the most iconic transitional coat trends that is certainly here to stay is the trench coat. A perennial favourite for generations, this style has certainly evolved over time, but remains a must-have for every fashion-forward fall closet. This season, this classic silhouette is being reinvented with modern twists and unexpected details like oversized lapels, statement buttons, and vibrant colours.

Our favourite for this season is the long vegan leather trench that is on-trend and so simple when it comes to styling. Whether you want to make a bold statement with a dark monochromatic look paired with metallic accessories, or give a casual look an element of effortless edge, this elevated trench style boasts wearability and versatility.

A feel for finer fabrics

Cue the cozy fabrics. Colder weather calls for slipping into soft, sumptuous fabrics like cashmere and wool. Beyond knits, this exquisite combination also offers the perfect balance of softness and sophistication for coats. The exceptional warmth of these fabrics allows us to create styles that maintain a tailored silhouette without being bulky. Timeless elegance and quality fabrics are always on-trend and make for long-lasting wardrobe staples that can carry seamlessly from season to season. This year, we’re loving the Mallia style with its high neck and fur collar. This elongated wool and cashmere blend coat with a fit-and-flare cut pairs well with both tailored and wide-leg pants, elevated silk blouses, and patterned statement pieces. Impeccable quality and elegant looks are always a worthwhile style investment, and this coat is no exception.

A penchant for plush faux fur

Another ever-evolving style that remains a favourite for this fall and winter is the luxurious (and cruelty-free) faux fur coat. From ultra-warm full-length coats, to cropped jackets, to accents like a faux fur collar or cuffs on a classic wool coat, styles like these make for a fun last layer with an extra luxe touch.

The beauty of faux fur coats is the sheer versatility of styling them. Curate a cozy daytime look with a perfectly plush jacket, or style a longer faux fur coat for an elevated evening look. Either way, this is one coat you’ll want to cuddle into all season long.

The reinvented puffer

We’re all familiar with the puffer coat. But this season, we’re seeing the puffer be reinvented with more unique designs and fabrics. We’re all for functional warmth for days when the temperature dips, but we’re also for staying on-trend with something a little different. This year, you’ll be seeing these quilted jackets in metallic finishes, oversized cuts, and fabrics like bouclé and faux fur (see above!), and even as an accent piece. More and more we’re seeing accessories like puffer bags, and accents like puffer collars and cuffs.

That’s why we’ve got our eye on the puffer collar and cuff wool blend coat as one of this season’s top picks. Mixing and matching fabrics and textures is a must for levelling up your cold-weather style.
