Fashionable outerwear autumn-winter 2023/2024: quilted jackets, plush fur coats and long coats

Autumn is the favorite time of the year for most stylists, fashion bloggers and fashion influencers, because it is during this season that you can experiment with layers, “play” with textures and develop new styling techniques. For example, a shirt can be worn as a duet with another shirt, and a sweatshirt can easily be used as a scarf. Well, let’s not forget about the fashionable combination of trousers and skirt in one look – such a trick will definitely not work in the summer.

What about outerwear? It also plays an important role in the image and complements it. Add a chunky biker jacket and tank top to basic jeans for an outfit with a rebellious vibe. Or opt for a solid beige coat and play with the Old Money aesthetic. So, are you convinced that one thing can radically change the mood of the entire look? Then we invite you to learn a little more about this autumn’s fashionable outerwear.

This season the design workshop invites us to pay attention to short trench coats, quilted jackets, plush fur coats, bright coats and even fur coats. But first things first. In this article, we will tell you about the most stylish trends and new products of the season.

short trench coats

The beige trench coat is a true classic of the autumn season. This essential wardrobe item was worn by Audrey Hepburn, Marlene Dietrich, Humphrey Bogart and Charlie Hunnam (we point to his iconic image in the movie Green Street Hooligans). And the star it-girls are not shy about dating the current version. However, this year it is fashionable to wear short instead of extremely long models. We saw 2023 fall fashion trench coats for women in the collections of Sacai, Balenciaga, Erdem, Sonia Rykiel and many other brands.

quilted jackets

Jackets are the most practical and comfortable type of outerwear in autumn. And if this jacket is also quilted, it will be 100% fashionable. The creative directors of Brunello Cucinelli, Christian Dior, Eenk, Emporio Armani and Ferrari relied on stitched outerwear in the 2023/2024 autumn-winter season.

Leather trench coats and coats

Leather products have been on trend for several seasons. Shirts, trousers, jackets, coats and trench coats made of this material are in demand in the fashion community. The latter, by the way, is especially popular not only among fashion bloggers but also among designers. So this fall, there will be current models such as those in the collections of Alaïa, Egonlab, Balenciaga, Coach, Acne Studios and Ann Demeulemeester.

duffle jacket

The duffle jacket is a single-breasted jacket with a hood and original buckle, codenamed “Walrus Tusk”. Initially, this type of outerwear was worn by sailors, or rather members of the Royal Navy of Great Britain. However, in the second half of the 20th century, the roller coat found its place in the lives of ordinary people. This was largely thanks to Yves Saint Laurent, who showed a short jacket with recognizable buttons on the catwalk in the 1960s. For fall 2023, practical outerwear is back in the fashion arena. For proof, here are runway looks from Prada, Lemaire, JW Anderson, Ayralee and many more.

sheepskin coat

If you are tired of bulky down jackets, feel free to opt for warm sheepskin coats made of genuine leather. First, they will serve faithfully for more than one season. Secondly, a fashionable option can easily be found in a vintage store (or in your parents’ wardrobe). Thirdly, with the help of a fur coat made of aged leather, you will be able to support many trends at once. By the way, designers also vote for this outerwear model. Don’t believe it? Then we recommend you to look at the products from the collections of Loewe, Louis Vuitton, Acne Studios, Ami and Blumarine.

maxi jacket

Long coats have long been included in the “classic” category. But almost the main autumn trend this season is maxi-length outerwear. For this reason, we recommend that you renew your wardrobe with models like those from the Saint Laurent, Valentino, Balenciaga and The Row fashion shows. By the way, another detail you should pay attention to when choosing a trendy coat is the shoulders. For the autumn-winter 2023/2024 season, they need to be roomy, masculine and a little extravagant. Generally, your reference point is Grace Jones on the cover of the Nightclubbing album.

bright coat

Just in case, let us remind you that the main color of autumn is red. Therefore, when choosing a coat, you should focus not only on the length, but also on bright shades. And it’s not us who thought of this, it’s the design workshop. For example, red coats were seen in the fall collections of Alexander McQueen, The Row, Max Mara and Michael Kors, pink models at MSGM, Ami and Ujoh, and green models at Bode, Etro and Ferragamo.

plush fur coats

The warmest trend that will warm you up this winter. Plush fur coats were popular in the second half of the 2010s, right when the “beige blogger” aesthetic took hold. Back then, street style heroes wore joggers, soft sweaters and matching beanie hats with fur coats. Nowadays, plush fur coats have become more dramatic, like Cruella Deville’s in the cult cartoon “101 Dalmatians.” In the Chloe collection, designers decided to focus on length, Etro on print, and Anrealage on color.

animal print coat

Designers often look to the animal world for inspiration. For example, the spring-summer season took place under the auspices of the tiger print, last autumn everyone dreamed of things imitating snakeskin, but the leopard has completely become a classic to which Azzedine Alaïa, Gianni Versace, Anthony Vaccarello and many other masters return. industry of years. The animal print trend continues into fall 2023. Moreover, this season you will not be able to limit yourself to plain accessories. On the contrary, you will have to “play” big, because the fashion community is betting on outerwear. Stylish coats with snake, tiger and leopard patterns occasionally appear in designer collections.

Cell

But we must admit that animal print is unlikely to be suitable for everyday life. Therefore, it should be replaced with a calmer, but no less relevant cell. A variety of classic prints will be in fashion this season, from Vichy to plaid. And if you want to make sure you’re 100% into more than one trend at once, you should check out the red checkered double-breasted maxi coat.

Bomber

University style has been in trend for a very long time. And that’s unlikely to change any time soon. Representatives of the fashion community still wear loafers with white socks (thanks to the Ivy League students for this fashion move) and bomber jackets bearing the symbols of prestigious educational institutions. Despite the fact that initially the wardrobe item with a bright logo was designed as commercial items, the main purpose of which was to popularize the university, sports bombers soon became an object of desire for all young people. Meanwhile, little has changed now. Urban fashionistas are especially keen on finding vintage varsity jackets.

biker style

Biker style left its mark on last autumn. At that time, everyone’s dream was a motorcycle jacket, trousers and even boots. Biker features influenced last season’s fashion so much that they are still relevant today. We see evidence of this on the catwalks of Alyx, Hermes, Louis Vuitton, Acne Studios and many other brands.

cargo jackets

Remember last fall when everyone was a cargo fanatic? Wide trousers with side pockets were almost everywhere: from social media feeds to brand catalogs to the streets of major cities. This season the industry has a new dream object: a practical jacket with lots of pockets. We saw current options on the catwalks of Li Ning, Etudes, Junya Watanabe and other brands.
