Lhe most difficult stylistic challenge of the cold season is managing to reconcile aesthetics And comfort. To show off looks with a high level of glamor without remaining frozen, the secret is to choose outerwear with a wow effect, which do not go unnoticed, and which are warm and enveloping at the same time. In the’Winter 2023 the must have jacket is the women’s herringbone coat, long and double-breasted, clearly inspired by menswear, or softer and more romantic, in a midi version or with a belt. While the silhouette varies and adapts to body types and occasions, it is the herringbone weave to guarantee timeless elegance, classic yet contemporary, to be reinvented every winter.
To be combined with jeans, knitted dresses, suits or shorts, the women’s herringbone coat is preparing to conquer hearts and wardrobes again. Word of star.
A timeless classic
Alongside teddy coats, camel coats and shearling jackets, the women’s herringbone coat rightfully falls into the restricted circle of winter outerwear that cannot be missing from every woman’s wardrobe. If the pattern gives volume and dynamism to the garment, you can indulge yourself with length, fit, additional details – such as belt and pockets – and color variations ranging from grey to the green until the brown. Majefor example, signs a wide model with a leather belt; Liu Jo he adds large lapels; Remain he imagines it essential and linear, enriched by three buttons. While Reasons he signs a midi declination of it, as if it were a peacoat, Topshop he prefers it oversized and double-breasted.

It is the looks of the celebs that reveal their character eclectic And versatile of the fishbone outerwear. Not only for daily commitments and together with sartorial-inspired outfits: the herringbone coat discovers a profoundly glamorous and sensual vocation, which allows it to be shown off even after sunset, alongside ensemble ultra feminine. Ahead of Christmas and glittering festivities, why not follow the example of Hailee Steinfeld, who surprised and enchanted at the 2023 Oscars after party thanks to a transparent dress covered in crystals hidden under a large herringbone coat (all Ermanno Scervino). A perfect game of contrasts to be replicated immediately.
For equally social, but less formal occasions, the looks from which to take inspiration include extra-long herringbone coats, with a rigorous silhouette and delicate combinations. Olivia Wildefor example, shows off outerwear together with a ribbed sweater, very short shorts, suede boots and a fringed bag tone upon tonein different shades of brown. The final effect is refined and contemporary. Alexa Chungfor its part, contrasts the coat with a pair of leggings and a crop top characterized by bows, ruffles and cut out, elevated by slingbacks with metal tips. A very current synthesis of masculine and feminine.

For Winter 2023 the herringbone coat is at its best extra long version, floor-length, straight and linear as if it were a uniform, or soft and enveloping, broken only by a belt at the waist. His style allies are high leather boots which peek out from under the hem, giving extra centimeters and thus lengthening the figure, and bags handmade that add a healthy dose of glamour. Furthermore, accessories with a more casual character should not be underestimated, capable of making outerwear more everyday and “relaxed”, such as sneakers, wool hats and balaclavas.
For a day at the office, an elegant dinner or a wild party, the must have for Winter 2023 is the herringbone coat.
