"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."
There are only two options when it comes to winter fashion these days. You're either going full out comfy—although you would not catch me in PJ's (no matter how fab) in these streets—I am not a cozy girl extremist!!! Or, the chill brings the lavishness out of you (read: me)—to the point where you've mustered supernatural strength to brace the icy winds just to flamboyantly wrap your cashmere scarf around your neck, stomp around town in your fave boots, and say "dahling" every chance you get. While I very much enjoy the latter, I would like to propose we embrace the in-between, too! And we can, with these designer winter coats.
Okay, hold on—don't click out. There's a coat for everyone at pretty much every price range (I'm a thoughtful one, ya know?). In this list of designer winter coats for women, you will find gorge outerwear for special occasions, as well as ones that will make you feel like you're wearing your fave blanket for the day. But also, say hello to the elevated everyday coat. Essentially, these are the coats that are the outfit—not because of how comfy they are (although they are!) but because they high-key just may outshine your actual look underneath! These'll look so good with your sweaters, sweater dresses, holiday 'fits, and beyond.
Our top picks for the best designer coats for women in 2024:
Like what you see, don't you? We've got the pillowy vibes covered with puffer looks, sleek styles like trenches and winners made of wool, and we're keeping you cozy in shearling, faux fur, and down coats (they look like robes, huh?)! Also, with lug-sole boots and snow boots in your arsenal, you'll def find winter at least somewhat enjoyable!

Convertible-Sleeve Jacket
Rave Review: "When I saw this in store, I knew I had to try it on. It's beautiful, chic, and looks expensive. The zipper is quite sturdy in the shoulder to convert it into a vest. I'm typically an XL or a 1X in jackets and coats, but I'm an XL in Avec Les Filles. Get it—it's a wonderful staple piece and so versatile!"

Pillow Hood Longline Down & Feather Jacket
TBH, you had me at pillow hood. This will be the only reason you look forward to winter.
Rave Review: "First off, the color is gorgeous. I've been looking for a deep olive that didn't wash me out and this fits the bill. The feel of the fabric is soft, too. It isn't shiny or swishy sounding when you walk. The pockets are lined and warm. I love the hood. It is just as pictured and will provide a lot of warmth when it's cold and blustery outside. The hood is very oversized without blocking your vision. The length of the arms and jacket overall are great (even for a petite person)."
