"A good coat is much more than an extra layer. It is the piece that sets the tone for your whole outfit. It is the hardest-working player in your wardrobe, the one that you turn to day in and day out, the piece that has to coordinate with everything else you wear, the garment that needs to be tough enough to cope with being pulled on and off multiple times a day."
"The right one will make it easier to get through winter with a smile on your face. Picture a cold, rainy Tuesday morning commute. Now imagine yourself striding along in a fluffy leopard-print jacket, or a glossy emerald puffer, or a debonair maxi coat in cherry-coloured wool. Exactly. Let's say you have decided that last year's coat just doesn't cut it and are in the market for a new one."
Autumn marks the need to focus on a coat as the season's essential wardrobe piece. A coat sets the tone for outfits and serves as the hardest-working garment, requiring durability for repeated on-and-off wear. Practical considerations include commute method, umbrella use, hood requirement, and length to protect dresses or suit jeans. A coat should coordinate with existing clothing, keep the wearer warm, and withstand daily use. Treat the coat as an investment that must meet functional needs while also providing pleasure. A bright or distinctive coat can elevate mood and make a strong first impression.
