Maxi coat? Duvet jacket? Chic parka? This season’s coats combine comfort and a scintillating sense of style …
The new dressing rules prescribe a seriously hard-working coat that will guide you from desk to dinner, lunch to late-night outings with ease. You’d be hard pressed to find someone who isn’t in the market for a cosy cover-up that’s won’t drain your budget and speaks nicely to the current fashion mood. Finding the perfect winter coat isn’t easy but we have some fail-safe guidelines we always follow: does it fit? Is it toasty? Will we still want to pull it out in winters to come? If the answer is yes to all of the above it’s a good starting point.
When it comes to trends this season’s hottest looks are a delightful mixed bag. Duvet jackets offer comfort and an of-the-moment buzz, floor-sweeping coats nail the maxi trend with aplomb, while colour pops reign supreme (see the gorgeous magenta jacket, below). We’ve scoured the new-in section at M&S to find the best coats and jackets of the season that will not disappoint: nab one while you can.
