When it comes to gifts, the best fashion gifts are the ones that have real use – and aren’t just something to be admired in the closet. And while the classic “new coat for winter” is always a safe choice, pairing it with the perfect bag? Then it gets personal (and much more exciting).
This season, DKNY makes it easy to meet every personality on your list with its range of on-trend outerwear and handbags. Think a tailored wool coat and structured tote for the minimalist who prefers a neutral color palette, a belted plaid jacket and statement chain bag for the girlfriend with an It-girl sense, or a cozy sherpa and a casual crossbody bag for the cozy queen whose entire personality revolves around soft, plush pieces.
Whether you’re looking for a die-hard ’90s dude, a downtown cool dude, or someone who just loves a nice outerwear moment, consider this your chance to gift something that will actually be worn (and photographed) all season long.
For the minimalist
Clean, classic and all about quiet luxury – this combination could have come straight from a 90s mood board. The tailored gray wool coat adds timeless structure, while the chunky chain bag adds a touch of city elegance. Perfect for friends whose wardrobe consists primarily of black, beige or a perfected neutral.

For the cozy queen
She’s the one who owns at least eight sets of loungewear and believes coffee outings count as an outing. This cozy sherpa coat with buckle details adds rich plush energy (essentially it doubles as a fleece blanket), while the casual chain pocket adds just enough edge to balance softness and structure. It’s that irresistible mix of tactile and cool – cozy textures paired with elegant hardware that make every errand feel well thought out.

For the it girl
If her FYP and IG parades are all street style snaps, this combination is for her. The long white quilted jacket offers unparalleled warmth *and* style in one way or another. Complement the cozy outer layer with elegant accessories like stirrup leggings, stilettos and a chic tote bag with beautiful knot details. This enviable blend of relaxation and sophistication ensures “effortlessness” despite being completely thought out.

For the sophisticated maximalist
She never met a color she didn’t love – especially when it’s oversized and grippy. This rich Bordeaux duo is lush, dramatic and full of main character energy. The monochrome color palette makes it the ultimate throw-on-and-go outfit that somehow feels elegant and perfectly styled (even if she’s out in five minutes).

For the athluxe lover
She’s the friend who always makes leggings look intentional. This glossy puffer jacket strikes the perfect balance between form and function, while the metallic silver tote bag reflects her sporty-luxe sense – practical at heart but with an eye for sparkle. Both pieces are wardrobe workhorses: the black quilted jacket goes with everything and the tote bag goes seamlessly from coffee to night out.
