The 2025 Coat Trends Will Instantly Pull Your Outfit Together (2024)

We have a saying at Marie Claire: sometimes the coat is the outfit. There’s a practicality at the root of the phrase since you can’t leave the house without some type of coat acting as armor against the cold weather. But we mean it more in the sense of personal style. When a classic trench is cut just right, or a cherry red duster is that wooing color pop, it’s the perfect style personification condensed into outerwear. The 2025 coat trends epitomize this fashion philosophy by ticking the utilitarian box—as the best winter jackets and coats always do—while helping cement your personalized take on winter fashion.

Christian Dior’s wooly capes and The Row’s scarf coats signal you’re a fan of flouncy drama, while the suedes seen at Saint Laurent and Bottega Veneta show you prefer more structure. The leopard-spotted and tiger-striped top coats at Chloé and Givenchy say that you want to kick off conversations and, ideally, get a compliment or two. But, again, what’s crucial about 2025's trending coats is that they don’t sacrifice function for fashion's sake. The nylon parkas and faux fur-trimmed anoraks at Burberry would hold up well in a snow squall, and Prada’s canary yellow rain jackets will be a literal bright spot on gloomy and wet January days.

Ahead, you’ll find more specifics on the best jackets and coats topping the Winter 2025 trends, as presented in designers’ collections for the coming season.

If you've long toyed with the idea of trying a cape coat, 2025 is the year to do so. Christian Dior and Isabel Marant both showed wooly longline styles, ideal for those who want to make an absolute statement á la heroine in a period drama. But other capes presented for the coming year are more subtle—like Gabriela Hearst's cropped khaki poncho with a minimal amount of flair.

The fashion set has made its adoration of the leather bomber jacket trend absolute. The rugged style was a foremost fall trend that's now trickling into winter and, as shown at Saint Laurent and No. 21's Spring 2025 runways, will continue to carry on in many more months to come. There's a powerful "don't eff with me" attitude to a big and baggy bomber, so it's easy to see the jacket's appeal.
