Winter jackets are practical, but the best ones are the star of the outfit, not the supporting role. That’s why we focus on layering outerwear that provides warmth and an element of wow. Whether you lean toward the coziness of a sherpa coat or the sporty edge of a puffer, the right winter topper can transform even the simplest look in an instant.
This season, top coats are getting a modern twist with ladylike details and cape silhouettes, and winter leather and suede jackets are keeping their place (though from bright colors to bold faux fur trims) (Not without fresh updates). Bombers are also vying for the spotlight, and it feels especially spot on in warm winter weather. Need a warm layer to throw on over your winter wedding guest outfits? Look no further than the faux fur coats topping our collection (Topshop, Gap, and Abercrombie are great) .
When it comes to specific pieces, fan favorites like the Aritzia slouchy coat, North Face puffer, and teddy-like UGG coat prove that staying warm doesn’t mean compromising on style. Whether you’re looking to bundle up, get tailored, or plan an outcoat to pair with a cozy oversized scarf, our picks will make braving the cold a real pleasure.
