The Fashion Trend That had a Significant Impact in New York City

Though New York Fashion Week started off at a balmy 50 degrees Fahrenheit, by the final show, guests had endured a snowstorm and below-freezing temperatures. And we know that New York City is constantly evolving, and one of the contributing factors is the daring and unique fashion trends.

Dress for warmth, or break out a great-but-impractical outfit? It’s the question every editor, buyer, and influencer asked themselves as they left their house for a stacked schedule of shows. But the street style photos proved that those with (great) boots on the ground found a happy, stylish medium with furry jackets.

The style was everywhere this season. And the bold outerwear choice was styled in every which way. It’s a simple way to add texture to any look, which is why it made all of our favorite looks pop.

The trend is also not just some New York Fashion Week microtrend—it’s everywhere. You see it on the sleek slopes in aprés-ski style, on the Soprano wannabes of TikTok’s mob wife trend, and on the high-society women of Ryan Murphy’s Feud: Capote vs. the Swans.

Below, discover the ways that furry outwear stole this Fashion Week, and shop some of the best styles available while the weather is still cold enough to wear them, no sweat.

Touchable Texture

Even snowy weather can’t stop guests from arriving at shows in style. This speckled furry coat is a bold topper for a cozy, monochromatic look.

A Polished Touch

A sleek black furry coat can dress up workwear or a casual weekend outfit. Preppy staples like topsiders and an L.L.Bean tote balance out the inherent formalness of your outerwear.

The Cropped Coat

A furry coat that hits at the navel can still keep you cozy, as Harper’s Bazaar senior fashion editor Tara Gonzalez proves with this bold outfit.

Dressed Down

An oversize furry coat is a simple statement topper to throw on over your relaxed staples—say, baggy jeans and a tee.

Wild Animal

A Carmela Soprano–coded coat option is one in a bold leopard print. You can use it as the standout element to punch up a more streamlined outfit. Or you can style it with other prints or something metallic (or both!).

The Classic

Keep it simple with a sleek monochromatic look punctuated by a luxe finishing touch: a furry coat that looks like it could have been borrowed from the closet of Gloria Vanderbilt. Add a pair of cool sneakers to make the look modern.

Textured Touch

This showgoer offers a way to style brown and black together, by playing with textures. A thick, furry coat plays nicely with soft separates and sleek leather.
