Hear Me Out: This Classic Coat Style Is the Key to Looking Elegant in 2024

After an autumn of unpredictably warm weather, I have to admit that I'm actually looking forward to the chilly days that winter will bring. And with a festive season of bundling up with chunky cashmere knits, shearling coats and fluffy blankets on the horizon, I'm more than ready to get the cosy season started.

It might still be a bit too early for copious layering, but our Instagram feeds have found us the snug-yet-practical outerwear style that you can comfortably wear from now, looks extremely chic, and will keep you warm on those really chilly days: Maxi coats.

Valeria nails office chic by dressing up her maxi coat with a tailored shirt, wide-leg trousers and a pair of sleek loafers.

Worn by plenty of our favourite fashion people this season, the longline coat trend has subtly been catching eyes since the beginning of autumn, from wool blends to faux fur designs, wrap coats to comfy puffer styles, we’ve seen an assortment of maxi variations to choose from, with a coat to suit every style and occasion.

Spotted recently on well-known faces such as Hailey Bieber and Rochelle Humes, the sleek outerwear style is key to elevating any winter outfit; Add a touch of luxe to wide-leg jeans, a long-sleeved T-shirt and off-duty trainers, or pair it with a midi skirt, relaxed-fit knit and knee-high boots for a chic and put-together look.

For a classic fail-proof option, Ingrid pairs her longline coat with a glossy leather skirt and court heels.

This minimalist trend is one that we can see sticking around, so, if you’re looking to invest in a luxury style to bring out year after year, this might just be your time. We’ve also rooted out some great affordable buys, with price tags under £150, from high street retailers such as H&M, Zara and Mango.
