‘Tis the season to layer up. The weather is now generally cold enough that outerwear is a total nonnegotiable, so you may want to consider putting a more thought into your coats and jackets than you might have just a few months ago. After all, if you’re putting meticulous thought into your outfit every day and then covering the whole look up with a coat or jacket, that extra layer should be just as chic and stylish, don’t you think?
For those who spend at least part of their days outside, whether running errands or simply getting in those wintertime walks, the coat or jacket pretty much is your whole look. Because when the temps are below freezing, sometimes the idea of even removing your coat in the first place seems like a no-go. So when getting dressed for the next few months and counting, finish your ensemble with a sartorial high note.
The biggest coat and jacket trends of 2023 are diverse and fitting for all sorts of occasions. Forever favorites — like trench coats and puffers — have certainly made the list. In addition, timeless options like dusters and car coats are experiencing a surge in popularity since they were first introduced decades ago. Outwear head-turners, including sporty styles and colorful hues, are also worth investing in this winter.
From the must haves from decades ago to modern additions, check out all the top coat and jacket trends of the year, and shop some of our favorite styles for every budget ahead.
