Military is in again this autumn
We’re in August, the nights are drawing in and there’s moisture in the air that suggests we’re not that far from colder weather though it’s not time to dedicatedly take a scarf out with you yet. One of the only few pleasures of the increasing cold is the return of sumptuous winter jackets and coats.
So what’s in store this year in women’s fashion? Camel’s back after being shunned for a few seasons. Reiss has created a chic camel cape to hide inside. You can also rely on red to brighten your look – Hobbs has several red jackets to take you through to winter. Also, if you’re feeling unadventurous but very practical, the high street still reliably supplies many black and grey style outerwear options.
This winter sees another take on the military look with longer coat styles back on the menu. Double-breasted button details abound. Leather is still big this season with the jackets from brands like All Saints and Muu Baa having a military edge.
One of the biggest trends is the shearling aviator jacket – a take on the very successful look from the catwalks of Burberry Autumn/Winter 2010. The style is likely to be a big hit because it’s actually really wonderful to be warm and chic at the same time!
Happy coat shopping!
