In our wardrobe, there are certain pieces that are unmissable.
In the summer, we cherish our little floral dresses, but in the winter, it’s the coat that we adore. Because it inevitably keeps us warm, but also because if chosen well, it stands on its own. And let’s not forget that it’s a piece we wear almost daily. For all these reasons, the coat is a winter wardrobe staple. However, from one season to the next, the coat evolves. Trends shape the outlines of new trendy coats. As a result, with the cold season approaching, we find ourselves a bit lost in the “embarrassment” of choices. But rest assured, trends are here to guide us. And there’s no need to open 10 Google tabs to find the coat to invest in this winter. We’ve gathered everything in this article, putting together a list of the 5 trendy coats for autumn winter 2023.
The Puffer Coat
The puffer coat aka the faux fur coat rises from the ashes this winter season. But far from the clichés that have been attached to it, this cozy coat returns in a more colorful, even warmer form. While it remains warm and comfortable, it is more elegant, features stunning cuts, and is bold, as seen in Bottega Venetta’s oversized puffer coat in pistachio color.
In terms of style, we notice 3 ways to wear the fluffy coat. The first is in an oversized manner, meaning ample and wide. For this, opt for an XXL version of the coat. You can also wear your coat by embracing colors. And this year, they are in! Red, royal blue, pink, or even green—if you love colors, let loose. Conversely, if exuberance scares you, know that the faux fur coat can also be worn classically. Choose it in light tones, and with a straight cut that recalls the codes of classicism.


The Quilted Jacket
In her article, Pauline decodes the khaki quilted jacket, and she derives 3 ways to wear the quilted jacket with class:
- Casual look: in this version, we opt for a fitted or slightly oversized jacket. Paired with a turtleneck, 3/4 jeans, and a pair of black derbies, you’ll sport a chic yet relaxed style. For a little more relief, you can swap your turtleneck for a striped shirt.
- Comfy look: the loose fit is favored. As for the rest, Pauline points out that “everything is allowed as long as you achieve a nice harmony of colors to highlight the jacket, which is the standout piece of the outfit.”.
- Vintage look: corduroy pants, a pair of Dr. Martens, a white shirt shopped on Vinted… Nothing will suit your quilted jacket better than this vintage combination.


The Scarf Coat
This is surely the coat of the year that we expected the least. Yet, the “scarf jacket” trend has swept through like a stylistic tidal wave on Instagram, rising to the rank of top winter jacket. This popularity is largely due to the minimalist brand Totême. To describe it, the scarf coat is a 2-in-1 jacket that combines a coat and a scarf. While it stands out for its practicality, it’s its avant-garde aesthetic that has made it an “it-coat”.
The Scarf Jacket has an elegant natural drape. It’s a coat that will pair very well with straight pants and a pair of loafers or low-top sneakers like the Samba Sneakers.

The Brown Leather Jacket
The leather jacket has always been a timeless piece in women’s wardrobes, summer and winter alike. But this year, this adventurous jacket has had a makeover, and high fashion houses have not hesitated to give it a new lease on life, much to the delight of vintage lovers. It’s with a weathered effect that the brown leather jacket rises from its ashes. Whether it’s short, long, oversized, or fitted, it is brown and sports a retro look.
Then, in terms of style, you can dare to go for the total leather look by pairing it with other leather pieces like pants or a skirt. Or you can play with materials and textures by pairing your jacket with knitwear, a fitted dress, flared jeans, etc.
The leather jacket remains a timeless piece. Whatever your style choice, it will match your outfit. And for winter, be sure to choose a padded and warm one!


The Long Coat
Long, oversized, (very) comforting, timeless. That’s how we could describe the long coat or “long coat.” And it wouldn’t take more to characterize the perfect winter coat. That’s why it finds itself once again on the podium of the most sought-after coats of winter 2023.
Choose it belted or not, in a very long version (to the ankle) or mid-calf, in neutral colors or in a pop shade. The options for the long coat are many. Nevertheless, it’s a coat that remains “easy” to wear due to its natural elegance and length. Wear it during the day with a pair of sneakers and a turtleneck. For the evening, opt for a pair of heels and fluid pants. It adapts to all situations (or almost).
