A fashion editor will do just about anything to romanticize winter, most notably wrapping up in the best faux-fur coats. Despite challenges like blisteringly cold temperatures and ceaseless wind gusts, don’t be deterred—something fluffy effortlessly glamorizes winter dressing (and keep us from freezing solid). Furry coats are also the kind of winter capsule essential that work in every wardrobe, whether you’re looking for a minimalist statement piece or you’re going for Old Hollywood glamour.
Faux fur is also one of the season’s biggest trends after popping up on an endless number of fall-winter runways, from Miu Miu to Valentino. If big and furry isn’t really your MO, a toned-down shearling jacket or toggle-closure coat might be right for you as a cozy alternative. Meanwhile, extra-plush options and animal-print layers are much more eye-catching without losing that same sophisticated edge. Ready to level up your collection of winter outerwear? These are the best faux-fur coats for every occasion, whether you’re aiming to turn heads on city streets or just trying to weather a blizzard.

Best long faux-fur coats
Longer faux-fur coats provide coverage and comfort while delivering on drama. This season’s runways showed that knee- and floor-length outerwear simply makes more of a statement than their shorter counterparts. This is the style to choose if you’re serious about keeping the cold out and want to have the jacket be the outfit itself. The 52-inch-long Apparis coat is giving serious panther vibes, while more casual, everyday options from Ugg and Aritzia require slightly less commitment.
Best short faux-fur coats
Cropped fur coats, on the other hand, allow you to get a little more creative while piecing together your look. Style your white denim with a zip-up jacket by J.Crew, or slip into some thermal tights and tall boots in extra-short options from H&M and Mango. They enhance, rather than become, your ensemble, making them ideal for styling with skirts, high-rise jeans, and other trendy bottoms.
Best patterned faux-fur coats
Go big or go home, right? These maximalist jackets command attention wherever they (and you) go. From leopard print to a more abstract fur-inspired designs, they’re reserved for the big personalities—and while they sometimes get a bit of a kitschy rap, our favorites look streamlined and elegant. One standout is the below option from Zara, which is less Carmela Soprano and more sophisticated everyday statement.
Best faux fur-lined coats
Maybe you just want a more toned-down touch of furriness. (You’re not alone, seeing that vintage-inspired Penny Lane coats had quite a moment last year.) If bedecking your body in fur feels overwhelming, we recommend the following fur-lined coats, each with accents around the collar, sleeves, and hems. These coats offer a more toned-down appeal while still keeping you plenty warm.
