Toronto Fashion Week Fall 2011 Trends: Coats

Posted by Siofan | Monday April 4, 2011

If there's one investment we never regret, it's a winter coat. A coat that keeps out the chill with a vibrant hue (the neoprene orange overcoats at Joe Fresh made a huge impact on the crowds when they first appeared) or create a cocoon-like form that allows plenty of room for layering, like those designed by Jeremy Laing, Vawk and Lundström. The coats that felt freshest were full and swinging in playful, generous cuts.

The loose ones are horribly impractical for chilly winter winds and they will also make you appear several sizes larger than you are. Unless you can cinch them in with a great belt. My favourites are the purple one from Lundstrom and the short blue one from Vawk.
