Nov 06, 2018
Now that it’s getting a wee bit cooler outside (hurrah!) the time has come to start stocking up on one or more of this season’s coziest and coolest-looking outerwear. Our picks, which are guaranteed to keep you warm on even the coldest of nights, come in various fabrics, cuts and colours. Splurge on a luxurious puffer jacket from Chanel or a slick leather coat from Italian fashion house Versace.
Leather Weather
Toughen up your look with Versace’s knee-length leather coat in burgundy. The piece features shiny gold buttons and a beautiful buckle belt. Styling tip: Wear it to work with platform brogues and a stylish tartan ensemble.
Silver Lining
Designed by the house’s talented creative director, Maria Grazia Chiuri, Dior’s slightly-oversized silver cotton lamé coat is inspired by clothes from the late 1960s. Styling tip: Complete the look with thigh-high boots and denim.
Power Puff
Chanel’s practical mid-length puffer jacket is adorned with tweed trimmings. #welove. Browse through the maison’s fall/winter 2018 ready-to-wear collection to see the other chic interpretations. Styling tip: Team it with a semi-sheer dress and a sequin handbag to your next formal dinner.
Lady In Red
Make a statement and wrap yourself up in Valentino’s red woolen coat with maxi scalloped-hems – this particular cutting technique was used widely throughout the label’s fall/winter 2018 collection. Styling tip: We think it’ll look great with tailored trousers and a ruffled blouse in the same hue.
Animal Instinct
Claudie Pierlot’s wool coat is adorned with two side pockets and an all-over leopard spot print…Fun! Button it all the way up if it starts to get really chilly. Styling tip: Wear it with your favourite jeans and T-shirt combo.
Something Soft
If you’re searching for a cover-up that’s warm and fuzzy then opt for Whistles’ Electric Toscana Sheepskin Jacket – it’s from the British label’s The Signature Collection. You can throw it on with just about anything in your closet. Styling tip: Pair it with towering heels and track pants when you’re running errands.
