This Is Officially the Coat Trend of Choice for Royals
There's nothing casual about throwing on a winter coat, especially when you're a royal whose every outfit is coordinated to perfection. Queen Letizia of Spain and Crown Princess Mary of Denmark were spotted wearing similar styles of wrap coats, which tend to be a favorite choice for more formal events and pair perfectly with skirts and dresses.
Lately, we've spotted several wrap coats at a range of prices (some more affordable than others), but all are undeniably chic. Whether you opt for a lighter-weight wool or want to go all-in with a luxe cashmere component, there's a wrap coat out there for every budget, occasion, or climate.
Keep scrolling to check out elegant wrap coats that are fit for a royal, but also affordable and stylish enough for everyday wear. We recommend sticking with lighter, neutral shades, but bolder colors beyond black and blue are great options too. As is the belt. Don't be shy about leaving it undone—particularly if you're wearing a fantastic outfit underneath.
Shop Wrap Coats
Choose a coat that's slightly oversize if you want to wear multiple layers underneath.
If brown and white aren't your thing, look for a coat with more of a neutral or earth tone hue. It will go with everything.
Some wrap coats have buttons to ensure closure so the belt can be tied more casually.
Look for a wrap coat made of wool that will withstand the elements without creating too much added bulk.
Thinner wrap coats are an ideal transitional piece for the unpredictable days between crisp, fall temperatures and snowy, winter weather.
Remember, you can always get coat sleeves tailored to suit your frame perfectly.
A cashmere and wool wrap coat is the quiet luxury staple fit for a royal but also accessible to us.
Doesn't the idea of a blanket coat sound cozy? Wrap yourself up and you're good to go.
If you like the look of a wrap coat but are lucky enough to live somewhere that winter feels more like 60 degrees than 6, try a lighter-weight trench coat style to achieve a similar look.
Uniqlo's outerwear selection is both stylish, sturdy, and seriously warm.
If you want to invest in just one piece of clothing this winter, make it a stylish wrap coat that you'll wear for years to come.
The slate blue color of this wrap coat is too beautiful not to include, even if it's on the pricer side.
