Coats are an obvious part of winter attire and they add so much more than warmth to your clothes. They are the perfect remedy to look graceful and stylish in the winter times when it is next to impossible to carry your style statement without freezing blue. We have already talked about trench coats, pea coats and parkas. Now let’s look at some more types of stylish coats that you can add to your wardrobe this winter.
Chesterfield Coat
These coats are normally long and lose as compared to other fitted types. They have little burden around waist so they allow you to walk and sit freely without tightening the grip around you. They have an overall slim outlook so despite being loose, they make you look fit. These coats mimic the men’s style of coat so they are a bold fashion statement for women. It is better to choose lighter shades like fawn or peach for chesterfield coats to keep the overall attire feminine. However, if you wish to take on the bold side, reds and blues are equally good if worn with confidence in your style.
Cape Coat
This is a rather modern addition to the family of coats and as the name implies, these are like capes. They normally come with a belt or buttons and are open from the front. You can tie it up as per your comfort. They allow free movement for arms so this is a better choice for days when you have to walk or use your arms frequently. Sometimes they come with armholes but usually they are like a regular cape loosely wrapped around your entire upper body.
Car Coat
These are simple yet elegant. Normally they come with a buttoned closure and are usually available in lighter colors. The design of car coats inherently has a graceful look and they mimic the classic fashion styles. Some car coats are also double breasted and may come without any belt or buttons. These can also be worn in the transitioning weathers instead of only thick winters. They look best with dress pants but can be a good pairing with jeans as well.
Duffle Coat
Duffle is a thick and somewhat coarse woolen material. These coats are extremely warm but can get itchy. Therefore a scarf around your neck is a good addition with this type of coats. They usually have a hood attached with them and come with wooden buttons and leather or rope loops. These coats have a hardy look and are good choice for extremely cold days when you have to go out and be the super woman that you are.
