It's a bold move to claim winter as your favorite season — but even we have to admit, it does have its upsides. Think cozy sweaters, guilt-free movie marathons, and delish, cold-weather crockpot recipes.
But the single most important cold-weather staple? A stylish coat, of course. Beyond the practicality of keeping you warm, no one article of clothing can transform an outfit quicker than a good winter coat. Now what makes any particular winter coat trend rise above the others is a bit subjective. But whether your style veers toward neutral staples or bright statement pieces, an update to your outerwear is the perfect way to incorporate this season’s best coat trends into your cold weather wardrobe.
From plaids to puffers, these flattering picks will keep you warm all season long.
Winter Coat Trends We Love: Trench Coats
There’s nothing quite as sleek as a longline leather coat. Whether you’re wearing it to work or on a night out, this luxe silhouette will infuse an instant dose of coolness into any outfit. While you can’t go wrong with a black or neutral, opt for a colorful version to make a statement and boost your mood.
Avec Les Filles Belted Faux Leather Trench Coat ($179)
A kelly green trench is an unexpected choice for outerwear, yet it's still neutral enough to blend with the majority of your wardrobe. Pair it with a black a dark colors or black for an easy everyday look.
Bardot Vegan Leather Trench Coat ($199)
The film noir vibes are strong, but the outfit possibilities are endless.
Aritzia Tabloid Trench Coat ($268)
From happy hours to Sunday brunch, this luxe trench will complement off any outfit this season.
Alice + Olivia Macey Vegan Leather Coat ($695)
If you were living for Barbiecore this summer, continue the glamour through winter with this hot pink coat. Pair with neutral basics to keep the look elevated.
Winter Coat Trends We Love: Shearling Coats
Jackets and coats lined with shearling have always been our go-to for staying warm. This year, shearling is taking a step beyond the lining and becoming the star attraction of the season's best outerwear.
ASOS Teddy Paneled Coat ($117)
Leather and shearling is a match made in heaven. If shearling feels too soft and sweet, opt for a version with leather details for some added edginess.
Avec Les Filles Faux Shearling Coat ($199)
Shearling, but make it retro. This '70s-inspired style will make even your most casual outfits feel new and interesting again.
SAM NYC Sherpa Nala ($395)
What this cozy jacket lacks in length, it more than makes up for in warmth. The relaxed fit makes it the perfect option for low-key winter afternoons.
Apparis Tikka Coat ($430)
Take the shearling trend one step further by choosing a vibrant pattern.
Vince Faux Shearling Coat ($695)
A neutral teddy coat will add a classic (and cozy) touch to any outfit.
The Best Puffer Jackets & Coats
Cool weather has essentially become synonymous with puffers. While we love a classic, this is one category where there's plenty of room to experiment. From corduroy to leather and fun pastels, here are the puffers we have our eye on this year.
BLANKNYC Tie Waist Puffer ($148)
Choose this asymmetrical leather puffer for an edgier take on the trend.
Splendid Milla Cord Puffer Jacket ($228)
This quilted corduroy puffer will keep you insulated, and the pretty pastel shade will make the long winter months feel a little less dreary.
ONIA Lightweight Puffer Jacket ($275)
This oversized puffer is a minimalist's dream! Wear it to elevate a simple sweater and denim combo.
UGG Keeley Faux Shearling Trim Longline Puffer Coat ($348)
Adjust the drawstring to wear this long puffer in a looser or more form fitting way - whatever your look du jour calls for.
The Best Wool Coat Trends
Mango Fitted Wool Coat with Buttons ($250)
Add a black structured coat to help pull any outfit together.
Cos Belted Double-Faced Wool Coat ($290)
While it seems like camel coats are trending every year, we especially love this double-faced version which will keep you extra warm!
Bellemere Passerina Coat ($330)
Choose an unexpected color of this staple silhouette to liven up your winter wardrobe.
Winter Coat Trends We Love: Plaid Coats
We've crowned plaid as the ultimate fall print, and for good reason -- it's a timeless classic, yet it always feels new. Not to mention its ability to elevate any outfit. This year, extend plaid season into winter with one of these stylish picks.
ASOS Hero Diamond Check Oversized Coat ($114)
The oversized print on this coat gives it a playful vibe that you'll want to hang onto this winter.
Spledid Rhea Plaid Coat ($248)
This coat is perfect for those who are always cold. The cozy sweater detail on the sleeves will keep you warm all season.
