80s
As in Christmas holidays. In the film series of the legendary Eighties no protagonist reached the heights without his most trusted ally: a caramel-colored sheepskin with a wide tuxedo-cut collar in white fur. The model is still among the most popular. Short at the waist or long at the knee as the designers dictate (Toteme), always indispensable for challenging the snow of Cortina as the path to the office.
Black and white
Two-tone, in black leather with contrasting white fur. Minimalism reigns supreme in the season’s outerwear, starting from the essentiality of the colors. If in the past it was brown sheepskin that was all the rage, today the most sought after jacket is in black and white. To be combined tone on toneas Ermanno Scervino demonstrates.

Crackle effect
Used effect, characterized by carefully studied cracks. In matte or glossy leather for an extra dose of femininity (Iceberg).

Lots of shearling
The leather base takes a back seat to the predominance of shearling fur. Especially in the eco-fur versionsoft hems are also multiplied on pockets and sleeves. The heat thus multiplies, as does the style of the coat, which seems designed to challenge the ice. Just combine it in contrast with jeans and sneakers to wear it nonchalantly even in the city (Litkovska).

Hood
Off the sleeves, off the simple edged cloak. Cape or vest cut, the latest trend in sheepskin for the season: a piece of outerwear capable of solving the entire look. Placed on the shoulders of a long knitted dress, like on the Khaite catwalk, or in a rock-solid short dress: it’s impossible not to notice it.
