Coat season is far from over, with temperatures only continuing to drop. Like any other wardrobe essential, you probably have a chic coat or two hanging in your closet, but why not give into the trends this season and shop these nine winter coat styles that we—along with many others—can't help but notice.

The top nine winter coat trends of 2023 range from tried and true classic camel coats to statement shearling coats that anyone would want to snuggle up in. Debuted last year and still reigning supreme, are coats from Totême, By Malene Birger, and even Mango that come equipped with built-in scarves. A two-in-one winter staple—what more could you ask for? Quilted shell coats from Ganni, Anine Bing, and Everlane are still a top trending item amongst retailers and, of course, street stylers. They also serve as the ideal fashion foundation to layer your other winter wardrobe classics underneath, like a simple white tee or a cozy cashmere sweater.

To brighten up any winter blues, take a walk on the wild side in an animal-printed coat from Cos, Rixo, and The Attico. Just as cheery, colorful, yet chic coats from Christopher John Rogers and LouLou Studio are new on the scene and are seriously statement-making. Luxury leather trenches are a forever fashion favorite seen across the runways and the streets. Keep it minimal in a navy oversized trench from Cos or maximal in A.W.A.K.E Mode's belted trench coat. When the weather is especially wintry, warm up in a shearling robe coat from Bottega Veneta, Nanushka, or Proenza Schouler White Label—it will be as if you never left your house. Speaking of shearling, standout shearling coats are never not on trend and these from Zara, Jonathan Simkhai, and Stand Studio are winners this season. Transport yourself to the British countryside courtesy of a few houndstooth, plaid, and checked coats from the likes of Miu Miu, H&M, & Other Stories, and more.

Whatever coat you land on this winter, there's no doubt it will stand out. Below, the top nine winter coat trends of 2023 to try (and shop!) now.

At the top of our shopping list are these ultra-chic coats that come equipped with built-in scarves. Classic camel versions from Mango and Tove will pair well on more casual days with a worn-in T-shirt and jeans, while options from By Malene Birger, Isabel Marant Étoile, and The Row deserve to be worn on festive nights out. From the trendsetter itself, Totême, the brand's gray scarf coat is sure to be the centerpiece of any all-gray outfit this winter. Even better, you’ll never have to worry about losing your winter scarf again!

On days when the weather is especially wintry, what better way to cure those winter blues than with a statement animal-printed coat. From cheetah and leopard prints from Rixo, Ganni, and Raey to zig-zagging zebras from Stella McCartney and The Attico, these coats are designed to stand out. Keep it simple underneath with a black leather midi skirt and a chunky loafer.

Shearling coats not only deliver in warmth, but of course, in style—and these celebs seem to think so too. This winter season, the shearling set has never looked better, thanks to Jonathan Simkhai, Remain Birger Christensen, Stand Studio, and more. Go one step further and wear your new shearling coat with an equally as stylish shearling sandal.

Quilted shell coats and jackets have gained major popularity as of late courtesy of brands like Anine Bing, Ganni, and Everlane. Ranging in warmth from lightweight quilted liners to more heavy-duty puffers like these from Tory Sport and & Other Stories, a quilted shell coat is the ultimate layering essential. Style it over one of the season's most festive sweaters or a crisp white button-up, for elevated elegance.

As if you never left the comfort of your own home, these shearling robe coats promise to keep you snug all season long. Of course, they deliver in style, too, like this winter white version from Vince or Nanushka's teddy coat. Raey's colorful take is always welcome, while this Bottega Veneta embellished beauty made its mark on the runway—and now in your closet.

A chic and colorful coat is one—and we’d argue the best—way to cure any mid-winter blues. No stranger to the bold and beautiful, Christopher John Roger's bright blue belted coat is seriously statement-making. Last Fall ’22, Pierpaolo Piccioli of Valentino solidified fuchsia as the color of the season—and now, the collection is officially shoppable with standouts, including this eye-catching double-breasted coat below. Other honorable outwear mentions include options from Mango, Proenza Schouler White Label, Ganni, LouLou Studio, and Mango.

A luxurious leather trench coat is the ultimate wardrobe staple that works well across any season, but especially during winter. You can never go wrong with classic black, like these from Nanushka and Mango. Beautiful brown leather trenches from A.W.A.K.E Mode, Apparis, and The Row are forever stylish, while a navy trench from Cos or an off-white Jonathan Simkhai trench are other welcome additions.

A camel coat is a classic for a reason, whether double-breasted or beautifully belted. There are luxury options from Hailey Bieber x Wardrobe.NYC and Khaite, while offerings from the High Street are just as noteworthy. Continue with the classics and style any of these chic camel coats with a pair of relaxed denim and stylish sneakers.

A plaid coat is perfection in your closet for a reason—just see why below. From Miu Miu's timeless tartan coat to Cos's houndstooth number, these checks & plaids are as work-appropriate as they are weekend essentials. Meanwhile, options from H&M and & Other Stories are elegant enough to wear on nights out.
