Now that we are in the middle of autumn, with the days getting shorter and the air getting cooler, there is one garment that becomes the undisputed star of the wardrobe: the coat. A symbol of elegance and practicality, in autumn 2025 it comes in many versions: long and snug, short and gritty, soft and cocoon-like, perfect for tackling the season in style.
The coat, in fact, is an outerwear item that, on its own, can characterise an entire look, whether for leisure or for errands in the city. And regardless of whether you prefer a classic or a more contemporary look, the coat will become a true autumn ally for every occasion.
Autumn coat trends 2025
Autumn 2025 celebrates the coat as a transversal garment full of character, giving us yet another certainty, seasoned however with many novelties that have already conquered catwalks, celebrities and influencers. The models we have seen on the catwalks and on the street are inspired as much by the male wardrobe as by the comfort of the cozy world.
Among the main trends, we cannot fail to mention oversized coats: wide, soft and with a fluid cut. Perfect for creating relaxed yet sophisticated outfits. Then there are the short and double-breasted models: elegant and practical, ideal for the office or for a more urban look, followed by the bouclé or teddy wool coats, i.e. plush effect, ideal for those who like to feel wrapped in a warm and irresistible embrace.
Then, among the trends for autumn 2025, we find coats with a tailored cut, models with clean lines, and characterised by large buttons, for a timeless style. There is also no shortage of wrap coats: a cross between a coat and a blanket, for a bohemian and refined, but still very warm touch.
Seasonal colours and materials
The autumn 2025 palettes, as we have already seen with the other trends of the moment, are inspired by nature. Here, coats are painted in warm, deep and sophisticated shades. Among the most popular colours are chocolate brown and caramel, which are the absolute protagonists of the season.
Along with them we also see camel and beige, timeless classics. Then there is olive green, smoky grey and midnight blue for minimal, chic looks, and burgundy red and burnt orange for those who like to stand out with a touch of colour.
The preferred materials for this season are wool, cashmere blends and bouclé, but also more technical fabrics for those looking for practicality and comfort.
How and when to wear autumn coats: combinations for every occasion
Coats are this season's never-without, the outerwear that accompanies us from evening to morning and can be combined with everything. But what are the best mix and matches to show off this autumn? Let's see them together.
Fordaytime, and for errands in the city, we recommend an oversized beige coat with straight jeans and a cream jumper. You can complete the look with low boots and a structured bag for a chic touch. If your destination is the office, or a business appointment, then you can opt for a long tailored camel-coloured coat to wear over smart trousers and a white shirt: understated, but with character.
For the weekend and leisure time, you could choose a short coat in caramel-coloured bouclé or teddy wool. Both go with anything, and are also perfect with leggings, sweatshirt and trainers for those looking for comfort and style without sacrificing softness.
For going out, on the other hand, we can pull the classic of classics out of the wardrobe: the long black coat with a waist belt, paired with high boots and a mini bag. Minimal, sophisticated and timeless.
