If looking wealthy is what you’re after stylewise this season, there’s no shortage of places to start, whether that be tapping into one of the rich-looking color trends of the moment, styling a monochromatic outfit, or adding a key accessory. Of all the ways to look luxe right now, one highly specific piece—a collarless coat—has quietly emerged as *the* way to tap into the wealthy vibe. Better yet, you don’t actually need a trust fund to look like you have one since the options are good, whether they’re from Zara or Toteme.
There’s just something so understated and chic about the clean lines that this crewneck silhouette gives off, and everyone from the celebrity set to French women seem to be in agreement. Ariana Grande wore Leset’s pink satin Bobbi Coat to the Wicked premiere in NYC in November, Kelly Rutherford has been favoring the coat style for winter in Monaco, and French women have taken to layering their collarless coats atop turtlenecks. Ahead, see the looks to take note of, where collarless coats featured on the recent runways, and, of course, the very best shopping picks.
On Ariana Grande: Leset Bobbi Coat ($1200); S/S 98 Chanel dress; Jimmy Choo Romy 85 Suede Pumps ($720)
Grande dressed the part of Glinda while attending the premiere of Wicked in NYC. Her Leset Bobbi Coat is cut from a thick silk alternative and features a collarless, cocoon-like shape that is just so striking.
Grande’s pink version is nearly sold out, but luckily, the equally-as-chic black colorway still has plenty of stock.
Toteme’s spring 2025 collection proved just how well collarless coats fit into the brand’s vision of a modern minimalist’s wardrobe. On the runway, they were layered over tissue-thin turtlenecks and married to easygoing staples.
Leandra Medine Cohen’s leopard-print pony-hair coat is what dreams are made of.
Rutherford’s timeless style is worthy of studying. Here, she paired a collarless style with jeans, loafers, and the It bag of the moment, the Bottega Veneta Lauren 1980 Clutch.
Another styling idea to take note of from Toteme is to wear a bold necklace that sits above the collar of the coat.
French women are also fans of layering their turtlenecks with this coat trend.
Even atop something as simple as jeans and a white tee, the coat style makes everything look so elevated.
Try an all-black base with a coat in a contrasting color for maximum impact.
