THE CINCH FACTOR: 7 SOPHISTICATED COATS FOR A SHARPER WAISTLINE

If you love coats that cinch and accentuate your waist—or that’s the look you’re craving right now—this season offers more options than ever.

FW24 celebrates femininity in many ways, with waist definition playing a major role. From waist-defining layers to sculpted silhouettes, this trend is here to stay, shaping wardrobes not just for the next six months but for years to come.

Whether you lean toward sleek minimalism or bold statement elements, single or double-breasted designs, buttons or no buttons at all, a modern take on the classic trench or a cozy, body-enveloping cashmere creation, the choices are extraordinary, and the styling possibilities are endless. It’s all about cinching that waistline—and we’re here to help you make the cut.

After much deliberation, we’ve decided to focus on an effortlessly chic neutral palette, rounding up seven standout contenders—timeless, sophisticated, and structured—one for each day of the week.

We’ve chosen the coats, now you can pick the day.
