Autumn is well and truly here, meaning it’s almost time to dust off the heavy-duty boots and winter coat.

The new season is a great excuse for weather-appropriate shopping, and a long coat is our must-have item for AW24.

The beauty of this classic coat style is that it always looks elegant, no matter what you’re wearing underneath. It elevates jeans and a tee or complements evening attire effortlessly.

A failsafe outfit for when you want to feel put together will always be a roll-neck jumper, midi skirt, and a long-line coat worn over the top.

Maxi coats are also super cosy for when the colder weather hits, making them a great investment piece for autumn through to the chilly winter season. Plus, we’ve included some more lightweight options in our round-up if you’re not quite ready to wave goodbye to the idea of an Indian summer just yet.
