13 shearling coats that are like an actual hug

Shearling coats, oh how we've been waiting for you!

From Proenza Schouler to Marc Jacobs and Coach to Prada, you couldn't miss the warm fabric at the autumn winter shows making it one of the leading coat trends for 2017 - and we're so here for it.

You can wear your shearling as you like: full length in knee-grazing cocoon coats, as cosy lining in an aviator jacket, or simply with some shearling trim on a classic biker. You can opt for real shearling (which is always a bit pricier) or otherwise go faux, where the options are equally as chic.
