It makes sense that the spring runways would be filled with the kind of light layers and liberally skin-baring silhouettes that can only be worn during the warmer months. And while the majority of the season’s top looks are the kind we’ll have to patiently wait for winter to melt away before wearing, we did spot one standout trend that we’re already inspired to start wearing now: floor-length coats.
Designers in Paris, Milan, and New York introduced a maxi-length coats to the 2023 style lexicon and with the popularity of ankle-grazing hemlines in dresses and skirts already this year, there’s no question this outerwear take will also be a hit. Whether they were coated in luxurious leather like the tonal versions Saint Laurent sent down the runway or billowy and floor sweeping like Peter Do’s trench coats, one thing is clear: the time to drape yourself in a massive cocoon-like coat is now.
