The one fashion question I’m asked the most by my friends is ‘where is the best place to buy a winter coat?’ Whatever budget you’re working within, a winter coat tends to take up a large chunk of your clothing budget, and so it’s a purchase that takes some consideration.
If you’re able to invest in a luxury label, or want to find the best the high-street has to offer, below you’ll find the 12 brands that I think you can always depend on when it comes to outerwear. It’ll be no surprise to you that a Max Mara coat is our ultimate purchase, however at the contemporary level I’m also always impressed by London-based label Shrimps, new name from Copenhagen Stand Studio and Joseph. When it comes to the high street, the Scandinavian brands really do coats like no other, as Arket, COS and & Other Stories are my ultimate go-tos.
