While short and fitted jackets may be popular for the cooler months of the year, there’s nothing quite like a graceful longer coat to revitalize a staid autumn wardrobe. This season, our favourite Hollywood style icons are gradually stepping out in eye-catching outerwear. From fiery red to grey blue, swap your pea coat for a longer alternative and channel the stars now.
Lupita Nyong’o
The 33-year-old Queen of Katwe actress is a gorgeous sight in this bright red Escada topper, which is detailed with fringe. The wrap style, three-quarter length and bold statement collar bring her brilliant coat to life. Meanwhile, the star’s yellow patterned head wrap, multicoloured handbag and classic red pumps perfectly flatter her ensemble.
Kate Beckinsale
If you’re craving a dose of ladylike style this season, draw your sartorial cues from the likes of Kate Beckinsale. The 43-year-old actress is beautiful in this pale grey blue coat with its oversized shawl collar. For a finishing touch, Beckinsale’s neutral pumps, white blouse and black sunglasses turn up the glamour factor.
Brooke Burke-Charvet
The 45-year-old dancer and actress steals the spotlight in this simple yet sophisticated cardigan coat. The brilliant red colour matches her fitted red sweater, while her cropped denim trousers offer a figure-flattering effect. If you’re aiming to rock a vivid hue just like Burke-Charvet, stick to dark wash denim and solid black heels for the ultimate in style.
