TOUCH magazine presents to your attention the most fashionable collections of women's coats for the fall-winter 2015-2016 season. Such a thing as a coat wanders from season to season, and it would seem that nothing new can be surprised here. But design imagination has no limits. And although this time we were not surprised by the color scheme (this season it is quite restrained, with a predominance of black, white, gray and cream), but details (such as belts and locks), prints and materials are in abundance, and with With them, the coat began to sparkle in a new way: modern and original.
The main materials used by the couturier in the manufacture of fashionable coats for the fall 2015 season are very soft and warm fabrics, namely: cashmere, tweed, velor, boucle, crepe, as well as “stretch jacquard” - a modern highly elastic fabric with a “breathable” effect .
Short coat
Short coats are gaining serious popularity, preferably with a straight silhouette, where the fastener will be hidden.
But to make it look fresh, the silhouette should be complemented by a bag and ankle boots. Simplicity, minimalism and casual rigor are the key words.
GIAMBATTISTA VALLI
Military
Military style is as old as the world, but always remains relevant. This season, choose an oversized coat with a loose silhouette, epaulettes and a belt.
Sleeveless coat
Another of the many trends in fashionable coats for the fall-winter 2015/2016 season is certainly the cape (in simple terms, it is a coat that does not have sleeves). Known back in the Middle Ages, he quickly burst onto the world catwalks. And, of course, classic coat shapes from yesteryear.
You can wear blouses and sweaters of a variety of colors with it.
ERMANNO SCERVINO
Maxi coat
In the upcoming cold season, you can stand out: you can be dressed in the most fashionable coat, but at the same time remain yourself and wear comfortable things from the fabrics that you like most. Fashion designers do not limit us in the choice of style, cut, color, but give great scope for imagination and do everything to make every girl and woman feel confident and beautiful.
ARMANI COLLEZIONI
BRUNELLO CUCINELLI
OVERSIZE
Such a coat should be complemented by hyperbolic elements: a large collar, pockets, a belt. It will fit perfectly into the relatively recently emerged sporty chic, if complemented with sneakers.
Different materials in one look
A coat combined from different materials - cloth, drape, sheepskin fabric - is an excellent option for fairly cool weather, especially if it is complemented with fur details. At the same time, the coat looks very elegant and feminine.
ALEXANDER MCQUEEN
PREEN BY THORNTON BREGAZZI
boyfriend coat
Everyone, of course, has already heard about jeans, shirts, jumpers that look like you borrowed them from your boyfriend. But now this list has been added to with one more thing - a coat. It looks especially cool if it is an integral part of a trouser suit and completely matches it in color and print. This look can be an alternative to any usual office look.
Bright stripes
Who would have thought that an ordinary black coat could be so enlivened by multi-colored rich stripes along the lock, around the pockets and hem? Such elements give a standard item youthful freshness and perfectly dilute the everyday look. The new season continues to surprise us.
BOUTIQUE MOSCHINO
Cell
The plaid print is found on many designer coats, but this season the plaid looks like it was spray-painted by a graffiti artist. A very interesting, urban and lively print.
MARCO DE VINCENZO
Matrix
Do you remember the cult film “The Matrix”, in which Keanu Reeves as Neo cuts through an illusory reality in a black coat? So this very coat has become one of the trends of the new season. It only acquired a gothic touch due to the leather material and the belt with metal fittings.
Pajama coat
Pajamas are slowly leaving our home wardrobe and heading out onto the streets.
The pajama coat looks very unusual due to its bright prints and loose style; it can be complemented with bright sneakers, and your street look will be ready. But the advantage of such a coat is that it feels comfortable at home.
MCQ ALEXANDER MCQUEEN
PROENZA SCHOULER
Coat without collar
An incredibly elegant coat that reminds us of the timeless jacket in the style of Coco Chanel. It will be relevant for more than one season and, perhaps, more than one century. Nowadays it is most relevant and stylish to combine it with wide sailor trousers and a blouse.

Bomber coat
Another variation of sporty chic. This time, tradition borrowed shapes and prints from sports. The coat - an elongated bomber jacket with sporty stripes - is one of the brightest trends of the season.
Vintage touch
A coat with a slight vintage touch, in the good sense of the word, in a rich fuchsia color can live in your closet without any fear of seeming unfashionable. This coat can look very feminine and sophisticated on you in the cold fall.
Vibrating print
Prints of this type are very active, attracting attention and creating the impression that they really vibrate. They also add texture to the coat. This coat can be worn with the simplest things possible: jeans, classic sundresses or a knee-length skirt.

Wild leopard prints are old friends of ours and are staying with us this season. Many people criticize them for being vulgar, but this can be avoided if used correctly. A leopard print coat should have a narrow fitted silhouette and be complemented by a laconic thin belt.

Summer has flown by, and autumn has already prepared its fashionable new items for us. Fashionable coats fall-winter 2015–2016 are distinguished by a variety of silhouettes and beautiful designs. This year, every woman will be able to choose a coat to suit her taste, as all the world's designers have shown this outerwear in a variety of shapes and colors.
Current styles and silhouettes
In the wake of interest in the fashion of past years, models that have come down to us from the 70s and 50s of the last century are relevant. 50s coats are distinctly feminine, sophisticated designs that can even give the impression of a weekend dressy look. The main reason for this is not only the special cut, characteristic of the fashion of these years, but also the materials used. These are luxurious expensive fabrics - silk, satin, brocade, jersey (silk and wool), cashmere. Such models are distinguished by spectacular details - shortened sleeves, soft draperies or asymmetrical folds, decorative buttons, elegant collars.
Fashionable coats in the style of the 70s are completely different - aggressive, tough, with large details. They are usually long, straight or slightly flared at the bottom, with large collars and lapels. They are not an exact replica of the fashion of those years, but rather reflect the main trends.
Straight and semi-fitted silhouettes are still fashionable. They “lost” part of their decor and became more laconic and strict. Their discreet beauty is supported and emphasized by an elegant and very autumnal color scheme: all shades of brown, green, burgundy and purple.
Coats that closely resemble elongated jackets have come into fashion. They can repeat the well-known soft Chanel jackets with decorative trim or classic jackets. Their length usually reaches mid-thigh or just above the knees, materials can vary - from thin fabrics for early autumn to thick wool, drape and tweed for winter outerwear.

“Military” coats and coats with elements of men’s clothing have been wandering from season to season for several years, still remaining fashionable and stylish. This season they can be made from fabrics, leather or suede.
Collections of autumn coats are decorated with capes of different lengths and volumes. European designers also offer them for winter, but in most of Russia we are forced to wear fur coats or cozy drape coats with fur in winter.
Popular materials and finishes
The choice of fashionable materials is huge. Here you can find woolen fabrics familiar to the cold season, as well as leather and suede. For demi-season coats, fabrics that are more typical for dresses are often used - silk, knitwear, velvet, satin. Combined materials are also in fashion, especially often combining different types of leather, suede and leather, these materials with knitwear or textiles.
A fashionable element of this year's coat is fur trim. If fur is the norm for winter clothing, then for autumn coats it is somewhat exotic. Very often, fur parts are made removable - these are collars, cuffs, vests, as well as small trim elements.
Note! Fashionable coats for autumn and winter are decorated with both natural and high-quality faux fur with different textures and pile lengths.
Fashionable colors
Unexpected elements burst into the usual autumn and winter color scheme - bright and large prints that can be seen in photos from most fashion shows. Most often, such a catchy color is used in long coats, on which it looks especially advantageous. On gray autumn and winter days, such elegant things can lift your spirits and brighten up your everyday life.

Short autumn coats in a jacket style can be either discreet gray and black and white, or painted in pastel or rich colors. They look great in an overall style that supports their color scheme - tone on tone or contrasting.
A classic tweed or herringbone pattern is ideal for a coat in a distinctly masculine or military style.
What do fashionable coats go with?
Quite traditionally fashionable coats go well with fur hats, warm mittens, leather shoes and bags. For autumn coats in the style of the 70s, very characteristic additions and accessories are used - felt hats with wide brims, long scarves, stocking boots, large bags.
Soft feminine models in the style of the 50s require elegant low-heeled shoes, silk or gauze scarves, large-framed sunglasses a la Jackie Kennedy Onassis, Kelly or Birkin bags. A small pillbox hat and transparent nude silk stockings will perfectly complement the look.

Cropped coat-jackets are versatile and go well with different types of clothing, slightly changing the style of the entire outfit. With leather trousers or jeans they look more sporty and youthful, with a dress or skirt they look more feminine. A very fashionable set for warm autumn is a short coat, reminiscent of a signature jacket from Coco Chanel, combined with a rather short pleated skirt.
Everyone who has looked at fashion photos has noted the wide variety of coat models this season.

After a hot summer comes a cool and rainy autumn, and then a frosty winter, and now is the time to pick up a fashionable and stylish coat. The coat has long been one of the most popular and beloved outerwear and it would seem that there might be something new, but this is absolutely not the case. 
Modern designers decided to experiment in this autumn-winter season 2015-2016 and broke many stereotypes.
FASHIONABLE STYLES
Fashionable coats fall-winter 2015-2016 photos - CLASSIC STYLE
Traditional fitted silhouettes are suitable for any season. This is a luxury coat made from neutral shades. This product is indispensable for those who value elegance and restraint. Dominant minimalism does not allow for prints or flashy details. The decor can be accessories, different types of collars and belts. Popular models include a straight drape coat or a wrap coat made of slightly brushed wool fabric.

In the autumn-winter season, designers suggest paying attention to a loose, voluminous silhouette. Coats chosen several sizes larger than the women's size require look defiant and unusual. Oversized clothing is the choice for brave and determined fashionistas. Typically, outerwear of this cut is distinguished by the absence of decor and any other additional finishing elements, which is clearly seen in the collections of Derek Lam, Giorgio Armani, Aquilano Rimondi, Akris.

There is another rather creative option for creative and stylish individuals - cape coats, long robes, ponchos, capes, blanket coats and even shawl coats. This coat will well complement an image based on a fashionable evening dress in the cold autumn-winter period. Some designers presented true works of art. So, for example, Etro presented a poncho coat in an ethnic style, and Blumarine and Valentino offered magnificent capes. Loose, elegant and stylish models of a similar cut were also offered by Chloe, Dolce and Gabbana, Roberto Cavalli, and Ralph Lauren.

This season, along with experiments and unusual styles, designers also presented more classic models, one of which is straight cut. This model is very elegant and strict, it is perfect for business women and simply lovers of classic style. This style elongates your silhouette, while slimming your shape, so a straight-cut coat will suit owners of almost any body type.

Wrap coats are very, very popular in the new season. Such a coat can either be secured with a belt at the waist (models from Altuzarra and Balenciaga) or not (Alberta Ferretti, Antonio Berardi). But in any case, such a coat always focuses attention on your waist, creating an hourglass silhouette. Therefore, if you want to add a little femininity and charm to your image, then a fashionable wrap coat is your choice in the fall and winter of 2015-2016!

These coats were already in fashion, and this year they returned to the catwalks. The traditional combination with long gloves looks elegant and feminine, and more extravagant young ladies can look for a sleeveless coat - for example, like Christian Dior and Balenciaga. Fashion designers advise combining such unusual clothes with coarse knitted sweaters and long gloves. Cape coats with sleeves in the form of slits are also often found.

Not only coat linings are now quilted, but also the main fabric. Fabrics of various densities and textures, with stitches of geometric or abstract patterns, look cozy and warm. Chanel presented black coats of a classic silhouette with an interesting stitch pattern, and Stella McCartney combined two fashion trends of this season - volume and quilted fabric. The best option for a coat for all occasions.
Fashionable coats fall-winter 2015-2016 photos - ASYMMETRY
The loud trend of the fall-winter 2015/2016 season - asymmetry - also affected fashionable coats. The Custo Barcelona brand presented a very interesting asymmetrical coat with animal print. And the Phillip Lim brand masterfully combined two fashion trends in one coat - asymmetry and a combination of materials.
Fashionable coats fall-winter 2015-2016 photos - DOUBLE-BREATTED COATS
A woman in a double-breasted coat looks very representative and elegant. Few people know that such a coat was first invented in the 70s by American fashion designer Kevin Klein (founder of the Calvin Klein brand). He adapted a men's double-breasted suit into a double-breasted women's coat in a men's style (peacoat), which literally immediately became firmly established in the arsenal of women's fashion. Since then, styles, materials, details and decor have changed, but the very essence of such a coat remains unchanged. Today you can find double-breasted coats in the collections of fashion houses Custo Barcelona, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Ports 1961.

A coat decorated with fur is always a very beautiful, spectacular, elegant coat for true connoisseurs of beauty. Warm, soft, delicate, cozy fur... You just want to wrap yourself up in it when bad weather is raging outside. A fur collar and a fur-lined hood will perfectly protect your face from any wind. Popular furs include mink, raccoon, fox, arctic fox, and llama. The fur of astrakhan fur and astrakhan fur is especially popular. If products with natural fur are not for you, then animal activists will be pleased with the huge number of fashionable coats with faux fur, which are visually very difficult to distinguish from natural ones. You will find stylish and bright coats decorated with a fur collar and a hood with fur in the collections of fashion houses Badgley Mischka, BCBG Max Azria, Fendi, Jonathan Saunders, Roberto Cavalli.
FASHION MATERIALS
The main materials used by couturiers in the manufacture of fashionable coats for autumn winter 2015 2016 are very soft and warm fabrics, namely cashmere, tweed, velor, boucle, crepe, as well as “stretch jacquard” - a modern highly elastic fabric with a “breathable” effect.

And here is another fashion trend for the fall-winter 2014-2015 season - a combination of several materials in one coat. And in addition to the standard duet - fur + leather, the most unusual combinations are relevant: cashmere and fur, wool and knitwear, velor and fur, etc. An interesting version of a coat with a muff was proposed by the famous Balenciaga brand. 
And chic fur coats from Dolce & Gabbana are worthy of the most luxurious woman. Don't be afraid of absolutely unexpected combinations and bold decisions. You will find coats made of combined materials in the collections of Alberta Ferretti, Balenciaga, Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi, Topshop Unique.

And, of course, the pride of all designer collections for the autumn-winter season are completely fur coats. Insanely expensive, incredibly beautiful. Incredibly warm and extremely comfortable. We bring to your attention a selection of luxurious fur coats from the fall-winter 2015/2016 collections from the fashion houses Marni, Osman, Roberto Cavalli.

Cozy and warm, such coats were received with delight by lovers of comfort. This season's knitted coats are somewhat baggy, but nevertheless they look very stylish. Elongated silhouette, soft shapes, warm shades - such knitted coats will give you a feeling of security and comfort. Such models were found in the collections of Tory Burch, Marc Jacobs, Derek Lam, Calvin Klein and Helmut Lang.
Fashionable coats fall-winter 2015-2016 photos - LEATHER COATS
Leather continues to be super fashionable and relevant. The autumn season does not exclude this chic trend and presents various interpretations of leather items. This material is found in both traditional fall colors and bright shades. If you plan to buy such a coat, then for inspiration you can look at the options presented by Zadig & Voltaire, Gucci, Sportmax, VivienneTam and others.
FASHIONABLE LENGTH
Fashionable coats autumn-winter 2015-2016 photos - SHORTEN MODELS
We are all used to long coats. We call the short ones short coats or long jackets. So, in the new fall-winter 2014-2015 season, such cropped coats are a super hit. Why hide beautiful legs under fabric? Of course, such coats will not warm you in a cold, snowy winter as much as their elongated companions, but they are an excellent option for late autumn. Short coats will look chic with high boots, such as over the knee boots. You will find beautiful cropped coats above the knee in the collections of Blumarine, Chloé, Libertine.

Maxi-length coats are another hit this season, and not just long, but ultra-long coats. Of course, they are clearly not suitable for everyday wear, especially in rainy or snowy weather, but they will be an ideal option for going out. After all, in an evening dress and maxi coat you will be a real star.
FASHION DETAILS
Designers offer us new items that street fashion 2015 dictates to us and that are difficult not to notice, namely - trench coats narrowed at the waist with a belt, various buttons large and medium, tonal or bright contrast, exclusive coats capes.Fantasy Gothic style in dark colors. Swing coats type of Japanese robes that use only a belt as a fastener. Another of the many trends in fashionable coats for fall winter 2015 2016 is certainly cape(to put it simply, this is a coat without sleeves), known back in the Middle Ages, it quickly burst onto the world’s catwalks. And of course classic coat shapes from past years.
FASHIONABLE COLORS
The color scheme chosen to create stylish coats is original and attractive. Lots of pastel colors: soft and delicate muted aquamarine, lilac, warm light shade of caramel, soft sophisticated pink, milky, coral and turquoise. The traditional black color of autumn and winter models is diluted in the collections with rich and bright options. Coats in scarlet, deep blue, tangerine and juicy olive tones are popular.
BRIGHT COLORS
The next trend we will talk about is a combination of bright colors. For example, pink (with all its shades from fuchsia to flamingo) with gray. Monic Lhuillier, Altuzarra and Alexander Wang paid great attention to matching colors and chose bright fabrics for their coats. If you want to bring a little bright summer into a boring autumn or winter season, be sure to pick up a coat in a rich shade.
FOCUS ON EMERALD
One of the most noticeable shades at the autumn-winter shows 2014-2015 was the deep emerald color. This is one of the most significant trends in the field of fashionable colors, so an emerald-colored coat should be in the wardrobe of every fashionista. Fashion houses such as Proenza Schouler, Derek Lam, Altuzarra, Narciso Rodriguez, J. Mendel and Prabal Gurung have included this shade in their collections and presented a wide range of dark green coats.
FASHION PRINTS AND PATTERNS
Among the prints, in addition to complex kaleidoscopic patterns and zebra and leopard colors that have returned to the catwalks with bright splashes of neon colors, it is worth highlighting the check. Two-color solutions originating from clothing classics coexist with modern and unexpected variations of tartan and bright diagonal multicolor checkered prints. With the help of a cage, you can perfectly correct minor figure flaws, and for those who can boast of an ideal build, they can once again emphasize their own advantages.
Some fashion houses have relied on fairy-tale motifs. Outlandish flowers and animals, intricate patterns and embroidery, unique colors and fabrics - in such clothes you can feel like a real oriental queen or a fairy-tale princess. Dolce & Gabbana especially tried to develop this theme.
The winter coat for the 2015-2016 season is one of the most fashionable options for women's outerwear. And the variety of designs and designs allows you to choose non-standard, eye-catching models.
What winter coat is in fashion 2015-2016?
The main fashion trends for winter coats 2015-2016 were demonstrated at the shows of famous designers. Let's look at them in more detail.
Models of winter coats 2015-2016 with a shortened silhouette will be relevant. They are also called short coats. They are usually equipped with a turn-down collar. Such models are not suitable for a very frosty day, but during the off-season or if it is a warm winter outside, they will look great, because this length allows you to show off long, slender legs.
Another option for fashionable women's winter coats 2015-2016 is a sleeveless coat. Such a piece of clothing, of course, is suitable only for brave girls who are not afraid to demonstrate the hottest trends from the catwalks. Again, the suitability of such a model for wearing in real winter is highly questionable, although such coats are even available in a fur version with a length below the knee.
It is also worth noting the trend in winter drape coats 2015-2016 to liken their silhouette to the shape of military overcoats or pea coats with their rigidly defined shoulders, standing collars, double-breasted fastening and an abundance of shiny metal parts. Belts that emphasize the waist, as well as fur trims on the sleeves and collars of some models add femininity to such a coat.
In many winter coat collections of 2015-2016, options in maxi length were demonstrated. This is another trend for the coming winter. In such a coat, your legs will be protected from the wind and cold.
The 2015-2016 winter coat with fur resembles a patchwork quilt, as it is made from pieces of fur of different colors and with different pile lengths. Other options for fashionable winter coats 2015-2016 with fur are various variations on the theme of sheepskin coats and astrakhan coats. Winter coats 2015-2016 are also popular, and they are emphatically voluminous, with large lapels that completely cover the shoulders.
Let us note another trend in winter youth coats 2015-2016, which will be at the height of fashion this season - these are various models of coats made of metallic fabric or material with shine. Such outfits look a little theatrical, but with the selection of calm accessories they can be worn every day.
Winter coats for obese women 2015-2016
It is also worth noting which trendy models of the season are suitable for women with curvy figures. From the above options, they can easily experiment with cropped short coats, as well as sheepskin coats and models with a voluminous collar. All of them, with the right selection of size and color, will be able to decorate girls with impressive figures.
Also suitable for them are models not mentioned above, but also demonstrated on the catwalks, such as midi-length coats with an accentuated waist or oversize cut. This season, in general, coats of this length look the most feminine and are equipped with details such as bows, felt flowers, and belts that emphasize the waist.
Overweight women can also try on coats that follow the trend of using a voluminous fur boa instead of a collar. Its edges are usually tucked under a belt or belt that emphasizes the waist.
Also, for girls with such figures, models of winter coats in small checks and with an asymmetrical pattern located in the vertical direction are suitable. Such options are now also actively coming into fashion and will definitely be at the peak of popularity for several seasons, that is, such a winter coat will be a good investment of money.

The approach of autumn poses fashionistas with an insoluble dilemma: to buy at sales everything that they dreamed of in the summer, or to wait for the release of new collections and buy new things for the next season? However, in both the first and second cases, it won’t hurt to find out what styles, silhouettes, fabrics and prints will be relevant.
Today on the agenda are fashionable coats for the fall-winter 2015-2016 season.
It seems that it is simply impossible to come up with anything radically new, but fashion is just that: fashion is to fool us with minor changes that make the image either modern and relevant, or outdated.
If we list the most repeated styles and prints of coats in the fall-winter 2015-2016 collections, we can limit ourselves to a few phrases. As in the spring of 2015, designers offer to wear military-style coats, sleeveless coats, checks and other popular prints, but here’s the problem: a fashionable autumn military coat is strikingly different from the current spring coat in the same style!
So, coats: styles, fabrics and patterns that may become popular in the fall and winter of 2015-2016:
- coat - pea coat, jacket, military style coat
- classic coat models, oversized coats
- cape coat, poncho coat
- sleeveless coat, collarless coat
- short coats, voluminous coats
- coat-robe
- cocoon coat
- leather coats
- fitted or “feminine” coats
- trapezoidal coats
- jacquard coats
- “shaggy” coats
- checked coat
- floral and geometric prints
- coat with fur collar, coat with fur hem, fur applique
- quilted coats
- fur/voluminous sleeves
- coat with 3/4 sleeves
- fringed coat
Current models
Pea coats and military coats
If in the spring designers played mostly with the uniform of the ground forces (palette from olive to khaki, camouflage, overcoats), then the autumn military is permeated with a nautical theme. Pea coats occupy one of the central places in the collections of Chloe, Dsquared2, Michael Kors and many others. Double-breasted black coats with gold-embroidered sleeves directly refer viewers to ceremonial tunics.
There were also traditional military coats in the style of khaki winter overcoats, but such models are definitely inferior to tunics and pea coats.
Chloe, Tommy Hilfiger
Dsquared2
Michael Kors, Victoria Beckham
Nina Ricci, Alexander Wang
Sonia Rykiel, Gucci
Traditional models, which are usually called “timeless” - straight cut coat, oversized coat and slightly fitted midi length models, can be either single-breasted or double-breasted. I must admit that in the variety of combinations of fabrics, furs and trims, such laconic coats look like an oasis of stability.
Christian Dior, DKNY, Etro

Cape coat and poncho coat
Poncho coats burst into modern fashion in the wake of designers' interest in ethnic styles. In the fall-winter 2015-2016 collections, fashion designers continue to develop the ethnic side of the poncho, flavoring the models with bright folk ornaments, fringe and fur.
Dsquared2, Ralph Lauren
Cape coats are also not new for trend connoisseurs, however, unlike the models that were popular last year and the year before, the fashionable cape coat for fall-winter 2015-2016 is distinguished by a variety of styles. It can also be a feminine cape without a collar, decorated with a floral appliqué ( Dolce&Gabbana), and something similar to a hunting cloak ( Lanvin, Saint Laurent), and a strict military-style coat ( Valentino).
Dolce&Gabbana, Dsquared2
Marc Jacobs
Michael Kors
Lanvin, Saint Laurent
Valentino, Loewe
Another modern style, loved by fashionistas, the sleeveless coat, has also undergone some changes and modifications. Thus, in the Celine collection, fitted coats are presented to viewers with semi-fastened sleeves, which, if necessary, can be unfastened from the base. The sleeveless coat in the Etro collection looks more like a long vest, painted with a mosaic of patterns, while models from Michael Kors balance between a sleeveless coat and a cape option.

Lanvin, Antonio Marras, Prada
Coat models without a collar have migrated from the summer wardrobe to the winter wardrobe. There are not many of them in the collections yet, but is it the beginning?
Dolce&Gabbana, Alberta Ferretti, Oscar de la Renta
Coats with ¾ sleeves are also more typical for the summer period, but in a sense, the task of fashion designers is to make fashion unattainable for the majority, so ¾ sleeves in winter are a great option for a completely impractical, but charming fashion.
Marc Jacobs
Short coats, voluminous coats
Short coat models follow the trend for girls’ dresses above the knee, which is observed in the fall-winter 2015-2016 collections, but is unlikely to take root in our latitudes.
Etro, Fendi
Christian Dior, Victoria Beckham, Blumarine
Oversized short coats: Carolina Herrera
Isabel Marant, Balenciaga
Cocoon coat, robe coat
Both slender young ladies and curvy women liked cocoon coats. This model unobtrusively masks flaws and highlights advantages, focusing attention on thin ankles and wrists. In the fall-winter 2015-2016 collections, cocoon coat options were shown
DKNY, Fendi, Derek Lam
Derek Lam, Antonio Marras, Victoria Beckham
For those who like to wear an open coat, coat-robe models are suitable.
Blumarine, Derek Lam, Ralph Lauren
Leather coats
A leather coat is more likely an autumn version of outerwear, however, the designers approached the creation of leather models thoroughly, flavoring them with fur collars and inserts.
Blumarine, Celine, Guy Laroche
Leather clothing fall-winter 2015-2016 is characterized by an abundance of models made from reptile skin. Coats are no exception to the rules of the upcoming season.
Miu Miu
Fitted or feminine coats
A woman is a waist! Designers diluted the series of oversized oversized coats and capes that flared towards the bottom with options for fitted coats and high-waisted coats, reminiscent of Empire style dresses.
However, it was not without imagination and some distortion of proportions: asymmetry, belts - bows, wide sleeves and lush fur collars are mandatory companions of such models!
Marc Jacobe, Victoria Beckham
Stella McCartney, Prada
Victoria Beckham, Oscar de la Renta
Trapezoidal coats
Trapezoidal coats continue the idea of cape coats and poncho coats that have been popular for many seasons, however, unlike the almost cape-like poncho and the original, but unpractical cape, trapezoidal coats are equipped with quite traditional sleeves.
Giorgio Armani, Derek Lam
Burberry, Chanel, Trussardi
Christian Dior, DKNY
Quilted and fringed coats
These design techniques are not new and are found quite rarely in current collections, but we cannot fail to mention the extravagant fringed coats from the Lanvin collection
Nina Ricci, Lanvin
and quilted coats
Burberry, Max Mara, Valentino
Fashionable coat fabrics fall-winter 2015-2016
In the fall-winter 2015-2016 collections, in addition to traditional coat fabrics, there are original, not quite typical materials. Thus, in the “fairy-tale” collection of Alberta Ferretti, the designer used jacquard to create a coat,

and in the collections of Chanel, Michael Kors and some others you can see “shaggy” coats made of fleecy fabrics.

Fashion prints
The most popular pattern on coat fabrics in the fall-winter 2015-2016 collections can definitely be called the English check. The coming season will give fashionistas a variety of checkered prints, from subtle thin intersecting stripes to contrasting and bright squares.

Fur and coats autumn-winter 2015-2016
Few people will be surprised by fur in winter; for example, the trend of voluminous fur collars and boas is unlikely to come as a surprise to anyone.

But fur coat sleeves are a more exotic find from designers, which may appeal to fashionistas.

However, if sleeves made of natural fur seem to you an unacceptable luxury, you can limit yourself to a coat model with sleeves of a different texture than the coat or a wide fur trim.

Where else can you find fur on coats in the fall-winter 2015-2016 collections? In the most unexpected places! For example, in the Giambattista Valli collection, fur is sewn onto coat fronts and is also used for patch pockets. Consuelo Castiglioni, chief designer of the Marni brand, is very fond of the latter technique.

And a completely impractical, but effective and even luxurious technique is to embroider the hem of a coat with fur.
