Best winter coats for women 2024 1. Melisha's pick: , £99

With burgundy being the colour of the season, you might want to add thisto your basket - pronto. The dreamy, faux-fur material is a sure-fire way to elevate your winter wardrobe and has a beautifully soft feel.

I tried on the at my local River Island branch and if you ask me, it's an effortlessly chic piece you can wear year after year. The lapels ramp up the cosy factor, while the medium length makes it great for all heights.

In my opinion, you could easily size down - depending on the look you want. I'm a UK 8 and found the small size pretty roomy, creating that slightly oversized look I usually prefer with faux-fur coats. Fabulous all round.

2. Lucy's pick: , £75

I'm a sucker for a teddy coat, and Marks and Spencer might have won the award this year with their offering - the It comes in two colourways, a dark chocolate brown and a natural beige, and in sizes six to 24. Priced at £75, I think it's a steal when you consider that some high street coats will set you back well over £100.

It features hidden metal poppers, so you can do the coat all the way up and stay toasty, but the real star of the show is the clip fastenings. They're a really unusual touch and in my opinion make the look way more expensive than it is. Sure, it's not going to keep you safe from rain, but I'm willing to hold an umbrella if it means I can sport this stylish number.

3. Nisha's pick: , £165

I am in love with the relaxed fit of this timeless longline coat. Available in a classic camel hue and a striking lime green offering, is pricey, so it's more of an investment purchase. However, I think this is a you'll be pulling out of your wardrobe for years to come.

It can be easily worn to work with office looks, as well as casually with jeans, jumpers, dresses and skirts. I like the chunky buttons and the exaggerated collars, straight fit and practical side pockets. You can pick it up in .

4. Bethan's pick: , £119

Finding a winter coat that is as practical as it is stylish is quite a challenge, but the ticks all the boxes. The taupe coat has been designed in a timeless trench-coat silhouette which is ever on trend, but it’s the host of practical features that make it a standout winter wardrobe addition.

Its fully ensure you keep the rain out and the warmth in, while it’s fully machine washable for those particularly mucky walks. What’s more is that it’s got a range of adjustable features to make it perfect for any eventuality, from toggle offer that “cinched-in” feel, which is both figure-flattering and great for keeping your torso toasty, as well as a removable hood that easily zips on or off.

Deep pockets are perfect for keeping my essentials to hand, whether it's my phone and keys or dog treats and poop bags, with press stud cuff adjusters to ensure a snug fit. Originally £170, the coat has been and it is a great option if you’re looking for a warm, practical coat that doesn’t compromise on style.

5. Lauren's pick: , £299

Fact: leather jackets never go out of style. Whether you're channelling vibes (skin-tight pants optional) or Carrie-Anne Moss's long-line Matrix vibe, there's almost no way to make a look uncool.

I've been donning my signature red lip and classic biker jacket look for years, but I decided it's time to introduce a new style into my winter wardrobe: . Its relaxed fit and classic collared neckline make it seamlessly transition from a casual day look to an evening out, ensuring I always have something trendy on hand, whatever the occasion.

Even better, it's slightly oversized, so can easily be layered over cosy knits and chunky cardigans. I can't wait to style it with a pair of gold hoops, a thick turtleneck jumper, and, of course, my signature red lip. True, it's a pricey pick, but it's sure to be a forever chic piece in my wardrobe.

6. Eve's pick: , £229

You cannot go wrong with a statement coat, in my opinion. And how much more statement can you get than a coat which fully engulfs your outfit in a tidal wave of festive red? The ideal accessory for an all-black or monochromatic ensemble, in its scarlet hue from Nobody’s Child caught my attention when I saw it on their social media recently and I fell in love instantly.

Made from 69% recycled polyester and 31% RWS wool you know it’ll keep you toasty when the temperatures plummet. It has an , classic collar and double breasted buttons - which gives it such a classic cut. You can definitely fit a chunky jumper and turtleneck top underneath.

Coming to mid-shin level, it’ll keep your legs warm too - which is a game-changer when out and about. It's such an that’ll work in a casual setting with your favourite jeans, boots and cable knit but over the top of your party dress, you’ll be a real show stopper.

7. Phoebe's pick: , £129.99

My priority when looking for a coat that'll see me through winter is one that will keep me warm and dry. I recently purchased the in the shade dark moss and I'm super impressed with the quality and how cosy it is thanks to its duvet-like padding and chunky hood.

Available in sizes eight to 16, the coat and also comes in shades fossil brown and caramel. It has a two-way zip fastening with a storm flap, and has two zip-fastening pockets for keeping your essentials close by and dry.

Considering I bought the coat for practical reasons, I was pleasantly surprised with how stylish it looks with a roll neck jumper, jeans and chunky ankle boots. I'll be living in it on wintery walks and days out, and it'll be coming with me when I visit Iceland early next year.

8. Harriet's pick: , £119

Another Superdry pick, I couldn't not include this as it kept me super warm in Oslo last December. We all have a coat we love the look of, but unfortunately, it isn't the warmest in icy weather. Well, puts all of that to shame. It's one of the most practical things in my wardrobe.

This simple black longline coat kept me warm in -6 degree weather in Norway but is also perfect for bundling up in slightly milder UK winter (and not too warm if it's above 0 degrees), all while not feeling or looking too poofy. The black colourway is available in sizes but the other red, grey, and navy have sizes from 6 up to 16 at time of writing.

It is a fitted style, and while it keeps you perfectly warm with thermal jumpers on underneath, if you plan on wearing bulky knits, you may want to size up for a more comfortable fit. The also comes with detachable fur detailing on the hood if that's not to your taste.
