The latest spring 2024 outerwear trend highlights coats as the standout category, according to a fashion expert surveyed by Moscow 24.
Stylists note that a wide range of models and silhouettes are in play. Retro jackets with sloped shoulders sit alongside heavy, oversized pieces. For those who favor more feminine cuts, semi-fitted silhouettes have gained prominence after a few seasons of being less central, offering a modern tilt to classic shapes, the expert explains.
Trench coats, leather raincoats, and checkered jacket-style coats remain on the radar. The stylist also suggests giving a closer look to bulky biker jackets that feature multiple pockets and belts. In addition to maxi-length quilted jackets, trendy outerwear now includes bomber jackets, sweatshirts, and denim jacket styles that persist in popularity.
Earlier, editors at French Vogue highlighted curtain-draped dresses as a spring-summer focal point. Fashion teams note that dresses with drapery can visually sculpt the figure, producing a streamlined silhouette. This wardrobe staple is currently enjoying peak popularity, with advice to lean into summer-inspired color palettes.
Hair care also trends with a playful twist, as stylists introduce a novel approach to hair masks inspired by chocolate ice cream, signaling fashion and beauty work hand in hand this season.
