Scold weather I don’t fear you. Like every winter, the search for garments that combine comfort and warmth with elegance and glamor becomes frantic. The starting point for achieving this ambitious objective is: outerwear, capable of revolutionizing entire outfits on their own. For Autumn-Winter 2023/24 the secret is to focus on Teddy coats, enveloping plush effect jackets available in infinite variations and shades. To be worn casually during the day, they transform into the uniform of the irresistible femmes fatales after sunset.
From Max Mara to Uniqlo, from Ralph Lauren to Benetton, all the seasonal Teddy coats.
In the footsteps of Max Mara
It was the 2013 when Max Mara brought to the catwalk for the first time a overcoat destined to change the future of the maison, unleashing an overwhelming effect on all contemporary fashion. The Teddy Bear Coat, literally the bear coat, conquers immediately thanks to that particular fabric, typical of soft toys, warm and enveloping, which recalls childhood and carefree moments, without giving up a healthy dose of glamour. Made even softer by silk, the Teddy coat from the Italian fashion house becomes the passe-partout garment for the contemporary, refined and affirmed woman, at all ages. Loved by stars like Julia Roberts and Lady Gaga, the Teddy Bear Coat continues to set trends, ten years after its debut.
