Another fashion week has come and gone, and the end of fashion month is slowly nearing. With the temperatures dropping week by week, showgoers in Milan brought out their best outerwear game while hopping from one runway to the next. Oversized leather jackets were paired effortlessly with even more leather, as were candy-colored coats and loud prints. Street style stars didn't let their staple outerwear stay basic either—creating chic outfits with their classic trenches and neutral wool pieces. With fall beginning and winter only a few months away, the street style stars gave their best looks to inspire how we'll be styling our coats, jackets, and blazers this season.
Come chillier weather, you'll be taking notes from the style set below because these coat looks are worthy of a conversation. Keep scrolling for the 5 outerwear trends we spotted on the Milan Fashion Week scene, plus inspiration on how to wear (and shop) them all.

Shop the trend:
Candy Colors
Saturated shades are a common theme in fashion currently, so why not bring it to coats? With a statement coat like this, there's not a long of styling you need to do to make it look any cooler than it already is.

Classic Trenches
We don't think trench coats are going away ever, but the outfits featuring the staple just keep getting better and better. It's the perfect coat for the transitional weather we'll be facing ahead.
Shop the trend:
Nonstop Neutrals
Almost everyone owns a neutral-toned coat in their closet, but just because it's beige doesn't mean it's boring. Its colorway gives it endless outfit opportunities, whether you want to pair it with other neutrals or contrast with statement shades.

Anoraks Allover
Touches of sporty spice made its way onto Milan's fashion scene, with anorak jackets being spotted more than once or twice. We're on board with these athleisure looks.
