Somehow, it’s still coat season. Dressing for warmth and style is no mean feat, as all those who navigated freezing temperatures and sleet-soaked streets at New York Fashion Week will know, but Jennifer Lawrence, for one, has cracked the code. The actor, who is expecting her second child, stepped out in a leopard-print coat from By Malene Birger that channels ’60s mod energy with a 2025 flair.
Considered a neutral by those in the know, a leopard coat is the ultimate winter wardrobe staple. J Law paired hers with The Row’s ludicrously capacious Park Tote and a pair of oversized tortoiseshell sunglasses: a masterclass in incognito chic.
A fashion week favorite, the leopard-print coat has made a roaring comeback, this time in iterations that feel more timeless than trend-driven (lest we forget the 2014 Topshop coat that did the rounds). Gone are the fast-fashion versions of the past, this season’s take is all about refined silhouettes and grown-up fabrics. So, while a New York winter may be relentless, Jennifer proves that a statement coat is all you need to keep things fun when it’s freezing.
