Case Closed: Women in Paris Just Declared This the Only Coat Trend That Matters
For someone who's never actually stepped foot in Paris (outside of the airport), I definitely have some strong opinions about French fashion. Namely, I think it's by far the best-dressed city in the world, so I always love to see Paris Fashion Week street style every season. On editors, buyers, and influencers this time around, I noticed a lot of baggy jeans, suede jackets, animal prints, and oversize blazers, just to name a few trends. On celebrities, however, one very specific item kept popping up over and over again: black leather coats.
Jenna Ortega, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Jameela Jamil were a few of the celebs who test-drove the trend in Paris last week. Among the trio, Ortega styled the coat the most casually: with straight-leg jeans and lug-sole boots. Huntington-Whiteley and Jamil, on the other hand, proved that the trend can also look exceedingly elegant. RHW paired her black leather coat with trousers and boots, while Jamil added white pointy-toe pumps for a night out. Scroll down to see their outfits and shop the trend.
