The brand may be best known for great dresses and epic boots, but did you know that Zara coats are some of the chicest on the high street? If you didn't, now's the time to get acquainted with their offering, as the stalwart has truly upped its outerwear game for winter 2022.

Perhaps, once-upon-a-time, a singular simple trench coat would do. But during winter - or, at least, during British winters - we need a little more choice. Finding a few versatile coats that are really an outfit in themselves is the dream scenario, hence why we've been busy prioritising and investing in our coat repertoire.

And this where high street hero Zara comes in. Every year, its coat collection seems to up the ante on its previous offering, with seriously chic styles that can be worn with just about anything season after season. And we reckon the latest AW22 Zara coat drop may just be its best yet…

If you've ever dreamt of owning a super chic, classic Max Mara camel, you'll be pleased to know the Zara website is teeming with similar styles. In fact, they literally have hundreds of coats to shop right now - many of which are a wool-blend, meaning that the fabric feels cosy and of a superior quality, but the blend keeps the price point lower.

This season's overall coat collection aesthetic is quite muted, but if you're looking for bold shades there are a few seriously epic, punchier pieces dotted through the edit - particularly within the limited edition drop.

What this collection is bursting with, however, are plenty of soft browns, rich greys and creamy cashmere shades that would work effortlessly over just about any knitwear you're into this season. This palette is also very timeless, so it won’t look outdated in two or three years time.

Our favourites? We're loving this double-faced leather coat for the weekends, this herringbone coat for work and this water and wind repellent coat for when the weather turns. If those don't appeal, however, you'll find our edit of the very best AW22 Zara coats you can buy below (to save you trawling through the website).
