THE OUTERWEAR YOU NEED THIS WINTER

Beat the chill this season with our edit of outerwear.

WORDS: Tom Keown Photographer: jane doe

Windy, rainy, with the random burst of sun: it can feel like the weather changes multiple times a day as we creep further into the colder months. You’re going to need outerwear options that can keep up, and luckily the recent collections have no shortage of options this season.

Whatever your plans look like, Italian powerhouses like Prada and Gucci are offering sleek outerwear that can also double as dinner jackets, whilst outdoors-primed brands like Moncler and Stone Island have outerwear designs that are equipped with the latest technical features to see you through the depths of winter.

LIGHTWEIGHT JACKETS

Primed for transitional weather, nights out, or journeys where a muggy tube is involved; a lightweight jacket will make an invaluable addition to your new-season rotation. From bomber to rain jacket, the AW25 collections offer a host of options that will add a sense of polish to everyday outfits whilst keeping you light on your feet.

Defined by a signature red and green stripe on its edge, a cotton gabardine jacket from Gucci is a sports-inspired option, meanwhile a denim jacket from Prada is its more utilitarian-inspired counterpart. In the mood for something sleek? Tom Ford and Alexander McQueen offer options in black with a shiny finish.

PUFFERS

Functional, durable and, crucially, warm, a puffer jacket is the silhouette to invest in this winter. Padded, quilted and with an outdoors-ready sensibility, the puffer is your secret weapon against letting the cold get the best of you.

Expertly constructed and equipped with the latest technical features; a Canada Goose puffer should be the first port of call for anyone wanting to get out into nature this winter. Both durable and city-ready, C.P. Company and Moncler are the names to know for those who want a puffer that offers endless versatility.

Not quite a shirt, not a jacket either; the overshirt inhabits that in-between space that opens a whole new range of outfit opportunities in colder weather.

The perfect lightweight layers for days when the winter sun wins, both Tom Ford and Prada offer overshirt options made from the softest knits in neutral tones. Luxe and low-key in equal measure, overshirts from Gucci and Saint Laurent work equally well when styled under outerwear or as standalone pieces for dinner plans.

TECHNICAL JACKETS

Perhaps more than any other piece of clothing, outerwear is an opportunity for brands to flex their technical expertise. Crafted from weather resistant fabrics and designed to withstand inhospitable conditions, technical jackets are the designs to know if you don’t want to let colder temperatures get in the way of exploring the outdoors.

Stone Island offers technical silhouettes that combine its signature aesthetic and military uniforms. Moncler Grenoble and Barbour design technical jackets that are both lightweight and ultra-protective, Canada Goose proves that technical jackets can be simultaneously sleeveless and effective.
