So autumn has come - September, and with them the time will come for cozy evenings with a blanket and hot tea, walks in autumn parks, scarves and outerwear.
A coat is a great option for outerwear for the fall. It can fit into any style from business to sporty, it can perfectly adjust the figure, and the variety of models will delight even the most discerning person.
Which coat to choose for fall-winter 2024-2025? It depends on many factors. If you need a coat that will easily fit into a basic wardrobe and will last at least a couple of years (or preferably five), choose a model with a simple cut. If you want something fresh, interesting and spicy, you should pay attention to trend models... In this article, you will find out what kind of coats fashionistas will be chasing in the fall of 2024.
Colored and printed
A compromise between fashion and practicality - a basic coat with a color relevant for the season or with a fashionable print. Autumn-winter season 2024-2025 is rich in a variety of color options:
● Discreet colors: shades of gray, brown, black and white. In the new season, gray and black are not boring, they are fashionable.
Alberta Ferretti, Salvatore Ferragamo
Jil Sander, Brandon Maxwell
Valentino, Stella McCartney
Sportmax, Boss
● Vivid colors: blue, red, pink, purple, green and their shades.
Alberta Ferretti, Rochas, Oscar de la Renta
Brandon Maxwell, Boss, Michael Kors Collection
Burberry, Victoria Beckham
Now the choice of colored coats in stores is simply huge. Perhaps this item will help you decide on the choice of shade. These colors were found on the catwalks more often than others.
● Animal prints, especially leopard.
Valentino, Prabal Gurung
Rochas, Miu Miu
● Intricate prints in the form of various patterns, reminiscent of carpets, tapestries, paintings.

Retro coat
In terms of tailoring, a very noticeable trend of the season is retro silhouettes in outerwear. A typical recognizable cut of a particular era is responsible for the retro effect: length, fit, size of lapels and buttons. Designers happily experimented with coats, adding a touch of past eras to their designs.
This fall and winter, you can go for a walk as a vintage coat that you inherited from your mother or grandmother, as well as purchase a coat from new collections in a retro style.
With fur trim
An echo of retro fashion - a coat with fur collars and cuffs. Street stylers showed this trend last fall, and the designers have clearly caught their eye. Coats and raincoats with fur trim were often found on the catwalks in the fall-winter 2024-2025 collections. Variations on the theme of the 70s and earlier eras have been proposed, often using leather in combination with fur.

Oversized lapels
An interesting trend that can add zest even to a coat with a simple cut. In the fall-winter 2024-2025 collections, different designers played it in different ways. Someone was inspired by the same retro theme, but someone just wanted something new.
Alberta Ferretti, Chanel, Tod's Emilio Pucci, Boss, Miu Miu
Separately, I would like to note a coat with large lapels and a wide neckline that leaves most of the neckline open, as in the autumn-winter Valentino collection. Such a model cannot be called practical in terms of warmth, but such a coat looks unusual and feminine.

Fringed
Fringe is the most fashionable finish for the fall-winter 2024-2025 season. She decorates literally everything: skirts, dresses, jackets, accessories, outerwear.Of course, the coat was not ignored either. Such decor can be an excellent solution for those who want to make friends with basic cut and fashion trends. In this case, the length of the fringe can be any.

High collar
For some time, such a collar was out of fashion and belonged to the anti-trends of women's fashion. But she, fashion, is changeable, and now the coat with a high stand-up collar is back in the collections of the new fashion season. Such models look more brutal and better protect the neck from the wind.
Stella McCartney, Chanel, Givenchy
Maxi models
Like a turtleneck coat, a long coat protects well from the autumn winds and coolness. The choice of maxi coats in the fall-winter 2024-2025 collections was very rich: straight to the floor, cocoon coats, feminine fitted models in retro style. Such coats are good for warmth, but require careful selection, as they can harm the proportions of the figure.
Brandon Maxwell, Miu Miu Agnona, Valentino, Petar Petrov
Oversize
The volume in the collections of the new season has become one of the main trends. Oversized clothing has been featured in many collections. Along with voluminous knitwear and balloon dresses, the designers offered voluminous outerwear, in particular coats.
Sacai, Givenchy, JW Anderson Lanvin, Max Mara, Loewe
In addition to exaggerated voluminous models, oversized coats are relevant, as if from someone else's shoulder, often in a masculine style. The fashion for discreet shades perfectly complements this trend and enhances the effect.
Tod's, David Koma Dolce & Gabbana, Stella McCartney
With puffy shoulders and sleeves
Not all coats may be bulky, but some of its elements. In the fall-winter collections, this element was most often the sleeves and shoulders. In general, the trend for voluminous sleeves is not new, but for outerwear it is quite fresh. Your favorite sweater, jacket, and a thin down jacket will definitely fit into such sleeves as an additional layer for colder weather.
Fendi, Givenchy Balmain, JW Anderson, Max Mara
Fluffy
Long hairs on the fabric, creating an interesting fluffy texture, adorned dresses and outerwear. Perhaps this is a variation on the teddy bear coat or fringes and feathers, which are extremely fashionable in the fall-winter season. Such fabric is also about volume, and such coats look cozy and funny.
Jason Wu, Miu Miu Etro, Rochas
Leather and latex
When it comes to leather, the line between coat and raincoat becomes very thin. Well, okay! Both a leather coat and a leather raincoat will be the most trendy next fall.
Valentino, SAKS POTTS, Versace Alexander McQueen, Fendi, Boss
And if you are so bold that you are ready to choose a latex coat, your look will be extremely fashionable and relevant in the coming cold season.

Quilted
Quilted coats come in and out of fashion. Although it rather depends on the cut. A basic quilted coat can be relevant for a long time without being at the height of fashion. In the fall-winter 2024-2025 season, colored quilted coats are noticeable. Someone jokingly calls them “blankets”. If you don’t like this association, just look for a quilted coat that doesn’t bring up similar analogies.
Alexander McQueen, Chloé, Erdem Hermes, Jason Wu, Salvatore Ferragamo
