Winter is the perfect time to do a little shopping. We always have a good excuse: we need a new sweater, a new hat or a new coat to keep warm.
And this year, we are lucky, our favorite stores are full of little pepites. Long or short coat, wool or leather jacket, down jacket or duffle coat, the choice is wide and varied, for our greatest happiness.
The good news is that our coat adapts to all our outfits, or almost. We wear it with winter dresses, slims or flared jeans, long dresses and short dresses. It can be worn over suit jackets and small blazers, and goes perfectly with large cardigans and cashmere sweaters.
In short, our coat is the essential piece of our winter dressing. But to adopt it well, it is still necessary to choose it well. Finding the ideal coat is not easy, especially when you want to keep it for a few years. Every winter, we are almost happy to take out our old favorite coat, the one we like and that fits us since a few years. So which coat will win our heart for winter 2020?
How to choose the right coat for winter 2020-2021?
Among all the choices of coats, how to find the rare pearl? To find the perfect piece, we start by defining our priorities. A specific idea in mind or the desire to follow fashion trends? We can also want a color but not a specific shape, and vice versa.
A coat can also be chosen according to our morphology. If you are short and want to slim your figure, avoid coats that are too long and prefer short shapes or above the day.
The coats of form bathrobe, provided with a belt will be perfect to mark the size. We can also belt one of our coats with a wide belt that we have in our accessories. It's perfect for a very chic look, while avoiding to do too much.
They come in sober colors, such as black, brown, gray or navy blue but also brighter shades such as pink, red, yellow and green. Prints also make their way onto our winter coats and add a touch of style to our outfit. We must not forget that in winter, the coat is the flagship piece of our outfit. Of course, since it covers us, it dresses us in its own way.
To brighten up our outfits, we leave the black or too dark coats aside. White coats are certainly more messy, but they blend with all other colors and are perfect to be worn with all outfits.
Trendy coat designs for fall-winter 2020-2021
This season, many creations have caught our attention. We opt for a bathrobe coat, for an oversized cut (like last year but still relevant), for a revisited trench coat, a cape coat or even for a faux fur coat.
The fashion trends for fall-winter 2020-2021 set the tone: prints and patterns are everywhere. They invite themselves on all coats and embellish your wardrobe. The star of the season? The plaid or tartan printed coat. We also adopt the striped coats or the big trend of the year: the animal print coats. The leopard print winter coat can be worn with everything and even mixed with other patterns, for a perfect mix'n'match style.
In terms of material, wool coats are still the best to keep us warm on a daily basis. Not too thick, they allow to accumulate layers underneath like thin down jackets, perfectos, vests, etc. It's time to adopt the layering trend, or the art of assembling layers of clothing.
For a great winter look, we fall for faux fur coats. Black, red, burgundy, camel, we wear them like big cuddly toys that keep us warm. They mix as much with evening dresses as with pants or jeans. The trick is to curl up in them on cold days, like in a big comforter.
And above all, don't forget that despite the trends, it is better to choose a coat that we like and that fits us. To find out, it is better to go through the fitting process. And then, it's always a good excuse to hang out in the stores, right?
