The Fall Coat has to do a lot, and do it all at once—it has to be, of course, fashionable while also being functional, warm, cool, versatile, color compatible, and able to combat rain, wind, flurries, and possibly snowstorms. In other words, the Fall Coat is a fashion statement, but it also needs to be taken seriously. This season features an array of stunning trends: this autumn’s unexpected colors, fabrics, and designs offer a wonderful opportunity to take the Fall Coat to another level. Here we share with you some of our high-caliber favorites.

Wool Coat with Leather Lapels by H&M

This 100% wool coat has its collar and lapels in leather. The concealed metal buckles at the front, tie belt at waist, side pockets, and vent at back add to its sleek elegance. And the combination of dark blue and black makes it an out-of-the-box color choice for fall. 

Jacquard Coat with Shimmer by Massimo Dutti

This knit coat in jacquard loom fabric is made in Italy in a wool and shimmer blend. It has a rounded collar, two side pockets, and front concealed press stud fastening. We love that though its rich, autumnal hues are predictable for the season, the added shimmer and sparkle liven up any outfit.

Band-Detail Long Coat, Pale Green by Givenchy

No, this Givenchy coat does not belong in the Spring Collection. The pale green palette is very much meant for fall. Falling below the knees, this longer coat has a banded yoke back, sharp shoulders, long sleeves, and a funky band detail that covers the front closure.

Chain Trim Coat by Moschino

Yes, those are chains. This black wool-cashmere blend coat from Moschino features notched lapels, a concealed front fastening, a flared style, long sleeves and an eclectic gold-tone chain trim.
