The days are shorter, the temperatures lower – and our clothes are now warmer and thicker. One fashion trend in particular will stay with us until the end of the year: the short coat for women. We present trendy models and have styling tips ready.

Long coats and oversize models are still popular in winter 2022. But: This fashion trend is not necessarily suitable for smaller women in particular. The short coat, on the other hand, is suitable for many sizes and body types: it ends at about hip height or is up to a hand’s breadth above the knee. It stretches the look a bit. The great thing about the short coat: it can be styled elegantly and casually.

You should pay attention to the material: Fine wool is usually more suitable than plush textures, as these are usually bulky and can visually compress a little. A short wool coat always looks chic and is also very easy to combine. But if you don’t want to avoid the short and trendy teddy coat, the best way to try to preserve the silhouette is to wear tight pants and elegant ankle boots (optionally with heels).

If the short coat for women has a belt, the waist is accentuated. This in turn also stretches optically and is therefore a good choice for smaller women. It shapes the silhouette and looks elegant. Different looks go well with a short coat with a belt: whether a tights-dress combination with booties or a sweater-jeans look with sneakers.

Leather coats are particularly trendy – even in the shorter version. A short leather coat is of course cool, but also elegant. It goes great with the jeans look to break up the “darkness” a little. Sneakers or cool boots go well with it. But a short (artificial) leather coat can also look good in an all-black look.

Other short coats are also great to wear in winter 2022: such as lined shakets, quilted short coats or even a short wool coat with a cool checked pattern.

It is more elegant if you opt for a short blazer-style coat. This model looks great in combination with tights, boots or ankle boots and skirt-sweater combo or dress. But a short blazer coat is also good as a slight break in style with a cool sneaker-jeans look.

The teddy coat is still an integral part of fashion trends – with its cozy look, it is also the ideal companion on cold days. The shorter version of the trendy coat looks particularly good in combination with tight pants and (heeled) boots.
