They're Here: The 6 Popular Coat Trends That Will Define Fall and Winter

Can you feel it? Yep, crisper weather is creeping in whether we like it or not, and before we know it, we'll be transitioning from the light jackets we're living in now to bonafide heavy-duty outerwear. That's right. It's time to talk about coats. As much as I lament the transition from fall to winter, the upside is that we get a fresh batch of coat trends to relish in.

As style people, we're always looking to our favorite retailers and fashion friends on Instagram to inform what's new and what's next. And when it comes to coat weather, we've officially spotted six new trends that will be the most important for the season ahead. From the fresh versions of leather toppers to the new age of puffer coats and shackets that make the seasonal transition much easier, continue on to read our 2021 outerwear report and shop our favorites within each category.

It had been a few years since bomber jackets were in the spotlight and per the predictability of the trend cycle, it was about time they made their return. The styles were seeing this time range—Prada's were notably oversized while Stella McCartney and Hermès presented shorter cropped styles—but the overarching theme is the sleek and put-together styling.
As events and parties come racing back onto our calendars, it only makes sense that occasion outerwear would as well. Designers from Tom Ford to Lanvin are offering up pretty peacoats and dressier toppers that honestly make for strong looks on their own.
If you ask me, the best part about this time of year is the ability to wear lots of leather. While the past few seasons have been all about classic black leather pieces, we can't deny that there's a return to bright and bold hues for fall 2021 with primary colors like cobalt blue and cherry red at the forefront.
From ponchos to capes and luxurious knit wraps, there's no denying an overall theme of being wrapped up in a cozy outer layer. If last year was all about loungewear for the indoors, this trend indicates that we're still in our cozy mood but ready for something that transitions outside, too.
While animal prints, in general, are relatively trend-proof, classic leopard prints specifically are bubbling up as a coat trend to watch this fall. Per the dozens of designers who featured leopard looks in their collections, we fully expect them to have a moment again this season but as a timeless piece in and of itself, it's a buy now-wear forever kind of thing.

Up next, see the two-piece outfit trend that's already defining fall style.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
