Here’s How to Style an Oversized Coat This Winter

If you love relaxed, effortless pieces that look like they’ve been borrowed from someone else’s closet, an oversized coat is probably your favorite winter staple. Not only are these coats chic and trendy, but they’re also incredibly practical. You can layer them over multiple pieces without feeling restricted – perfect for cold days when staying warm is a must.


Choosing the right oversized coat is key. Neutral shades like brown, gray, or beige are ideal if you want a versatile piece that goes with everything. If you’re worried about being "swallowed" by the coat’s volume, go for a belted style or one with a structured cut to flatter your shape. Remember, oversized coats are meant to have a roomy fit, so stick with your usual size for the best balance of style and comfort.


When it comes to styling, this "coat with personality" pairs best with slim or straight-leg pants. If you prefer skirts or dresses, opt for midi or maxi lengths in fitted cuts that balance the coat’s volume. Style it with chunky ankle boots or sleek knee-high boots, and finish the look with an oversized tote – or a mini bag for a fun contrast.
