THE BEST COAT TRENDS TO INVEST IN THIS FALL/WINTER

A winter coat is arguably the most important piece in your autumn/winter wardrobe, and sometimes the most tricky to find. You need it to be a look on its own for the days when you won’t even take it off, but also need it to *make* your looks, too. We’re breaking down the best coat trends of the season – think suede, faux fur and the viral barn jacket – to help you figure out which one’s for you. Scroll to find out.

This is a huge one for FW24 – soft textures like suede and faux fur offer an easy way to add interest to everyday ‘fits. Even better? You can make a statement with a floor-sweeping dressing-gown-coded silhouette or keep things pared back. Animal details are still here for fall/winter, too – we’re loving the exaggerated collar and bold pattern on this snake style.

If you’ve been on socials in the last month, you’ll know that the popularity of barn jackets has skyrocketed. But what makes them so wearable is their simple silhouette: clean lines and a boxy shape are key. Similarly, cropped jackets make the perfect light layer – this relaxed leather silhouette isn’t miles away from the barn jacket, but the cropped hem gives a flattering fit if barn jackets sit too low for you.

One thing we’re seeing *everywhere* this season? Exaggerated funnel necks. Besides the fact they instantly make an outfit look cooler, they’re super practical and warm, too. A funnel neck on a longline coat gives an elongated silhouette for the girlies who want to add some height, and we're completely on board.
