The best winter coats for women

It’s what’s on the inside that counts, right? True, but we think what you wear on the outside is important, too. With colder, wetter weather on the way, your coat pick will be the core piece in your winter wardrobe. Less brrrrr and more WOW: our hot-right-now winter coats collection covers all of this year’s must-have trends.

The faux suede coat

2025’s latest winter trend? Suede, suede, suede! This fabric takes cozy dressing up a notch with its soft-touch finish and easy, throw-on appeal. Think retro-inspired cuts with a modern twist, cropped, belted, or with an oversized fit to allow for layering. Basically, it’s the upgrade your winter wardrobe’s been waiting for — and trust us, you’ll be wearing it everywhere.

The longline coat

The long coat isn't short on features: first, it provides great coverage to keep you warm right down your legs. Secondly, it’s a style which doesn’t date (more than ready for a long time commitment) and thirdly, you can find it in padded options, as well as double-breasted and trench coat styles. It's a wardrobe essential goes to great lengths... As such, this all-round winter winner can be styled with your favorite gray sweatshirt and straight leg sweatpants or wide leg and skinny jeans. Or if you're going for a more dressed-up look,, it also works well over mini dresses and mini skirts.

The puffer jacket

Is it even winter without seeing the first puffer jacket of the season? An outerwear essential, nothing keeps the chill away quite like a down-filled piece. They have lots of functional features, too, funnel necks, hoods and snap-close pockets (we’re looking at you, 6AM dog walkers). Want to invest in a padded vest? They're also a practical layer under your long coat. 

We’re just warming up... this winter we’re into duvet style puffer coats to help banish the blues and go from bed to brunch and beyond. Whether cropped, oversized, or relaxed, their versatility alone makes them an indispensable asset to your winter wardrobe.

The bomber jacket

Bomber jackets have come a long way from their humble origins as outerwear worn by US pilots. Briefly but famously the preferred pick of the punk in the 80s, they now have a firm place in modern fashion. There’s a good reason why: the OG style has an insulated interior, and easy-on zip front. The bomber jacket has had a makeover and comes in many iterations such as jersey and cozy textured fabrics. There’s a bomber for everyone. Wear yours over an oversized shirt, chunky knitwear and midi skirt and biker boots, to give your look some street style edge.

The biker jacket

We’ve never owned a motorbike, or even been on the back of one... But we’ve owned many biker jackets. Just like the machines they go with, they make you feel cooler by proxy. Motocross style is speeding its way through the outerwear zeitgeist. So to give your everyday looks an adrenaline boost, add a faux leather biker jacket to your style arsenal. The silver tone belt is an updated accent to the classic design, and makes it look more luxe. See also our faux suede and neutral picks for an update on your new season palette. To give your flared jeans for women or your sweater and leggings outfit a bit of va-va-voom, add a biker jacket.

The elegant long black coat

In every iconic cult movie, there’s a long black coat. It helps give you the main character energy you need to stride up and down the streets. And besides providing a protective layer against the cold, it's also very flattering. "Black goes with nothing in my closet," said no one ever. It goes with everything: Slip dress, pleated midi skirt, your straight leg jeans, a crisp white shirt. The elegant long black coat has your back. From sleek and structured styles that cinch at the waist, to ‘model off duty’ oversized fits, this is one elegant coat you know will look good regardless of how you style it.

The faux fur coat

Soft yet sophisticated, the faux fur coat is a perfect plus one to an evening outfit, and you cannot fake the glam it adds to a daytime ensemble. Balancing between comfort and elegance, the faux fur is a fab centerpiece for your winter wardrobe. From fleecy and fluffy layers to cropped and long picks, you'll faux-get the cold wearing this on-trend outerwear piece. Going "mob wife" style straight through winter? A 70s inspired faux fur jacket, a pop of red and statement jewelry will nail the vibe. Wear with leopard print separates to purrrfect the look. Or go for practical but polished pieces with tailored pants, turtlenecks and loafers. Either way, you’re sure to impress...

The barn jacket

Rural chic is in, and the barn jacket is leading the way for winter 2025. Structured, practical and full of that 'thrown on but still put together' energy, it's utility, with a fashion twist. The boxy cut, roomy pockets and structured collar make it the perfect layering piece. The best part? It nails that countryside charm and city chic balance, making it one of the season’s must-have coats.
