6 Warm & Wonderful Winter Coats

A well-seasoned style guru once said, “There is no bad weather, only bad coats.”  Embodying this statement, stay well dressed and warm this winter with flattering new releases from six outerwear designers. —Julia Dumbrell

According to colourfully and sustainability committed STE.MARG.SCOT, wool is back. The company’s Caribbean-born, Toronto-based founder Sasha Jardine merges her love of colour with a standout winter coat for everyone, like the timeless design of the Taylor Coat in shades of Power Pink, Lime Light and Hibiscus Orange ($1,500).

From rugged parkas to versatile jackets, the FW23 line of the Rudsak jackets pays tribute to Canadian journeys and adapting to the unexpected. Their Mave Women’s Matte Down Puffer with Hood certainly impresses, expertly crafted alongside the new collection to blend functionality with elegance ($845).

The Vallier Vika Lightweight Down Jacket offers warmth without bulk ($400). The compressible down fabric makes a flattering mid-to-outer-layer, gracefully hugging curves and pairing stunningly with the brand’s entire winter line. 

Helly Hansen has released an entire collection of FW23 Coats, from Insulated Rainwear to Winter Parkas and Puffer Standouts. For Vancouverites needing a stylish, warm and waterproof option, the W Jane Insulated Trench Coat will become a winter essential ($330).

Frank and Oak added a hood to their Skyline Maxi Jacket which is new, stunning and selling fast ($219). The piece keeps fashion seasonably sustainable, made from a blend of recycled PET bottles and insulated with vegan materials.

Ranked among the best camel coats in Canada, we love the classy touches in The Wrap Coat by Suzy Shier ($99). Cinching at the waist with an elegant wrap design, the coat’s flattering silhouette keeps us warm and stylish all season long.
