This season, the top coat gets a modern twist with ladylike details and cape silhouettes, while classics like suede jackets and wool coats hold their own (though not without fresh updates—we see you, shawl jackets). Trends like the utilitarian barn jacket and bomber jacket are also vying for the spotlight and are particularly effective in less brutal climates. (Hello, LA winter.) As for specific items, fan favorites like the Aritzia Slouch Coat, North Face Puffer Jacket, and Lululemon Puffer Jacket prove that you don’t have to compromise on style when it comes to staying warm. For those craving luxe touches, a Zara fur coat, a teddy-like UGG coat and a Barbour wax jacket offer sophisticated twists on seasonal basics.
