BEST WINTER COATS

FOR 2023

Some may shudder at the thought of colder weather, but wrapping up in the coziest of layers can be so much fun. So when temperatures drop and the search for the best winter coats for women begins, look to our guide for stylish outerwear inspiration.

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A COAT AND A JACKET?

Generally speaking, the difference is in the length. Coats are usually made from heavier fabrics and fall to the knee or beyond. Whereas jackets are lighter and finish at the hip. But as expert makers of both, there are exceptions to the rule, such as a parka raincoat – it's long but light!

WHAT IS THE BEST COAT TO BUY NOW?

As staunch believers in timelessness over trends, the best winter coat is one that is designed and made to last. A camel trench coat, black wool overcoat , plush faux fur coat and practical puffer jacket are wardrobe staples you'll turn to again and again. What matters most of all is fit – ensuring it's a flattering shape that makes you feel great whenever you wear it.

WHAT IS THE BEST MATERIAL FOR A WINTER COAT?

Look for fibres that are known for their warmth and temperature-regulating properties. Wool and cashmere are naturally warm and sustainable. They retain heat yet are breathable too, so you shouldn't need to layer up as much.

WHAT IS THE BEST COAT FOR EXTREME COLD?

Hands down, it has to be a puffer coat. The outer fabric is cleverly made with cold weather conditions in mind, while generous padding will keep you snug. The quilted design isn't just stylish either, it creates air pockets that store heat. Practical features like a hood, drawstring waists and elasticated cuffs – all help to maintain cozy temperatures too.

With so many styles to choose from, it's fair to say there's no 'one size fits all' when it comes to the best winter coats for women. Just keep in mind the three F's: function, fit and future appeal. What function do you need it to serve: work, weekends or both? What fit do you prefer? Lastly, ask yourself will you wear it in future years? Keeping this in mind is sure to lead you to the perfect coat.
