Women’s Coats
Get your coat…autumn has arrived and it’s time to invest in the coat to see you through the season ahead. For AW11 there are lots of new and classic coat styles to choose from, with smart and casual designs to suit every look.
Make the right choice for your cover up with our pick of the top women’s coat styles for autumn, all available at River Island.
Parka Coat
They’re a staple for rainy days and casual style, but this season grungy parkas have been given an image makeover with borg and faux fur linings, embellished detail or just different styling. Keep yours for casual wear with jeans, boots and jumper or look to the AW11 runways and throw it on over a glamorous going out look for a new twist on the parka.
Faux Fur Coat
This season a faux fur coat is essential. Have fun with River Island’s colourful faux furs – a snug orange coat is sure to have you turning heads! If you’re not feeling as brave, take your pick from stylish brown and black styles. Leopard print faux fur coats never really fall from the style radar, but for AW11 a Dalmatian print faux fur jacket will be spot on.
Pea Coat
Embrace the sixties trend and cover up with a pea coat. The double breasted styles are smart, simple and versatile, so will be a great investment for autumn.
Quilted and Padded Jackets
For a modern take on the heritage trend, look no further than a quilted jacket. These are increasingly popular and are just as practical for the city as the country.
Women’s padded coats and jackets are also a key style this season. These are sportier and look great with jeans and casual pieces.
Whatever style you choose, visit River Island for fashion-forward and versatile women’s coats.
