From Apparis to Alaïa, designers are all in on plush outerwear.

Fashion has finally emerged from its pandemic cocoon, shedding knit sets and schlubby sweatpants for cocktail dresses and all-tailored-everything. But according to the biggest fall 2022 fashion trends, there's still a case for comfort dressing where our everyday coats are concerned.

Robe coats—seen on runways from Coperni to Saint Laurent to Stella McCartney—take the classic belted, wrap silhouette and amp up the cozy factor with the plushest materials: faux fur, shearling, quilted leather, and more faux fur. Versions that are more affordable but no less luxurious can be found at Apparis and Alo Yoga. Across the board, these well-insulated coats make braving the eventual fall and winter elements feel like curling up by an aprés-ski fireside.

The style's name evokes a hotel pampering, Netflix-and-hibernate mindset, but the best robe and wrap coats are meant to be seen. “We saw a number of robe coats on the fall 2022 runways that can be styled either up or down depending on the occasion,” Tiffany Hsu, fashion buying director at Mytheresa, says. When staying soft, informal, and lounge appropriate is still the imperative, Hsu recommends throwing your coat over a chunky knit and slouchy pants. Then, “for a more modern look that isn’t too dated, I would wear either a jogging or high-waisted pant with tucked-in shirt,” she suggests. And if you want to take one of our 13 favorite robe coats below in a dressier direction, Hsu has a one-item styling hack: “You can always add a heel.”

Apparis is something of a specialist in faux furs, and its wrap coat is one of the softest on our list. The material keeps its just-out-of-the-box quality through dozens of wears—and some reviewers are so obsessed with the quality, they've purchased more than one.

As one shopper sums it up, "Light and airy but oh so warm. Fits like a big hug. Luxurious and so soft."

When days grow short and dark, you'll count on this under-$200 coat—a rare find for outerwear—for a wearable mood boost.

This shearling-accented coat will get all the compliments, even when flung over outfits as simple as a camel turtleneck and wide-leg jeans.

Here's a wrap coat that needs only three words to sum up its soft, chic perfection: "It's an Alaïa."

Nili Lotan's rendition is a true classic, from the voluminous (and well-insulated) faux fur to the mid-calf length and oversized collar. It's already selling out across several sites, but we tracked it down at Saks. We can see why fashion people are already whipping out their credit cards—this coat has an Old Hollywood-meets-prep quality we love.

Lady in red, outerwear edition. The sharp lines of this wrap coat's lapels perfectly balance its comfy-cozy bouclé fabric.

A robe coat in this gorgeous olive green doesn't conceal your outfit—it completes your outfit. Color isn't all that's going for Proenza Schouler White Label's coat: This wrap also has an extra-large belt (for cinching and styling) and deep pockets (for stowing your phone and touch-screen gloves).

This coat's merino wool blend has the same snuggly feel as our editors' best fall sweaters, plus a length ideal for topping matching sets or jeans. Bring it out for foliage tours, pumpkin picking, and all other fall-centric activities where a light but cozy layer is required.

Stella McCartney's runway robe coat goes big, with extra-exaggerated proportions. And when it comes to materials, this fur-free-fur coat takes a glittery step further than others on the market: Zoom in, and you'll see bronze accents scattered throughout the zigzag design. Now that's a statement coat.

You asked for a robe coat that goes even bolder than a non-neutral solid. Shrimps answered with an unmissable gingham and floral faux-fur coat, secured with a black velvet tie. It's a match made in heaven for your Sandy Liang Mary Janes—or any statement fall shoe of your choosing.

Stand Studio's coats always check the following three boxes: soft, oversized, and optimally cozy. For a coat that's equally parts downtime robe and uptown trench, go for this double-breasted faux fur. We can already picture it with an LBD, tights, and glittery heels for holiday parties.

With reviewers calling Alo Yoga's robe coat "luxurious," "fabulous," and "the best coat ever," why wouldn't they bring it back for another fall season? This fall, the style comes in three neutral faux furs—ivory, brown, and black—and features zippered pockets spacious enough to replace your handbag. Fit tip: This style runs slightly large, so consider going down a size.

You're getting two plush wrap coats in one with this By Malene Birger design, which flips from fluffy shearling to quilted leather and back.

Anine Bing is a master at minimalism and this simple, but very soft, black robe coat is no exception. We love it styled with jeans, ballet flats, and a ladylike bag for a completely classic and sophisticated moment.
