The 18 Best Camel Coats To Buy Now, Whatever Your Style Or Budget

Patron saint of the camel coat, beloved British brand Reiss delivers a winning style every single year. The Lucia is long enough to look luxuriously expensive (but also comes in a Petite version) with wide lapels and a neatly cinched waist to create a classically chic silhouette. Note the discreetly notched cuffs that ensure ease of movement.

Welcome to the most sensible thing you’ll buy in this year’s Black Friday sales. Karen Millen has gone big on the camel coat category this year, offering around a dozen different designs, from the pared-back classics to bolder statement styles. This wool-blend option sits somewhere in-between: the neat belted cuffs and nipped-in waist create a silhouette that feels commanding yet versatile enough to wear every day.

Don’t overlook All Saints when it comes to classic outerwear, cut flawlessly. Long and lean, this camel coat looks so much more expensive than it really is – and, made from a majority-wool blend with a hint of recycled cashmere spun in, it’ll feel it too.

Made from 70% wool, Whistles’ sharply cut classic is a weighty option that’ll see you through countless cold spells. It’s cut to a classic androgynous silhouette with pointed lapels and an ankle-sweeping hem.

Supersized scarves are a key detail for AW24, and Sandro is one of the first to deliver a winning option. This super-cosy dark camel coat features a winding, cocooning neckline that looks best when shrugged nonchalantly over one shoulder. Made from 100% wool, it’s much more than a one-season wonder.

If you’re after a simple, everyday classic that’ll last you several years to come, consider Mango’s most timeless option. This wool-blend coat is detailed with little more than a tie-waist fastening, so is sure to outlast the trends.

Made from a substantial wool blend and fully lined, this one has a beautiful structure and satisfying weight that make it feel so much more expensive than it really is (and it looks it, too). Do size down though: they’ve overestimated the ‘oversized’ element.

An asymmetric cut breathes fresh edge into the camel trench coat. Wear Aligne’s double-breasted Gilda style over dark indigo denim for a crisp new-season look.

Made from 62% Manteco wool and lined in satin, this one’s a heavier, warmer option to the Mango contender above. The lapel collar also boasts an asymmetric button fastening that secures tightly around your neck, helping keep out those brisk British winds.

For something that makes more of a statement, House of Dagmar’s hourglass design is ideal. The curved and cinched waist negates the need for a belt, creating a longline silhouette that looks so flattering, whether buttoned up or left undone.

Here’s another gem from one of the best sales we’ve found so-far this year. Sublimely cut (and somehow almost half-price), this heavy Italian Manteco wool coat is crafted to flare dramatically from the waist and flares to elegant effect as you move. Wear it buttoned up to keep the silhouette in the spotlight.

One of our most relied-upon French fashion brands, Sezane knows a thing or two about crafting the classics. This neatly shaped coat is cut to a boxy silhouette that hits just on the knee for a more casual feel.

A camel Max Mara coat is such a certified classic, you’d be wise to snap this one up now (while it’s unusually reduced).

Inimitable Italian craftsmanship underpins the timeless design, which is made from soft camel hair and neatly tailored to that perfect, just-boxy-enough silhouette.

Anine Bing’s luxe cover-up is made from a blend of 90% wool and 10% cashmere, so you know it’ll feel as good as it looks. Left unlined, it’s a great one to wear all year round: over a simple T-shirt now, and layered with knits once winter beds in.

Cos’ nonchalantly cool coat comes in a slightly darker shade of brown, which looks especially chic with supple black leather separates. It’s double-faced – the hallmark of a high-street hit – and fastens neatly with concealed press-studs.

Reformation’s completely classic Kai coat will look good with anything you throw it over, from wide leg jeans to a sleek slip dress. It’s made from a blend that incorporates low-waste Manteco recycled wool, and shaped for a boxy shit with double-breasted front buttons. The mid-beige hue is perfect for pairing with this season’s key burgundy accessories.

H&M’s minimalist design is a refined take on the classic trench. It’s made from a smooth recycled-polyester blend, so isn’t going to see you through the chilliest days, but it’s a great layering option to wear now and into spring.

The Garment’s design ethos is: minimalist, but with a twist. Eschewing trends in favour of true ‘forever’ pieces, the brand creates some truly special staples, like this cosy camel coat. Note the fun fringed detail at the back of the shoulders.

A drawstring tie brings a unique twist to this cosy, cocooning coat. The fabrication promises longevity, too: it’s made from 80% wool and 20% Ecovero viscose, made sustainably from wood pulp.

A tailored camel coat with a bit of cool, masculine energy. This one is ideal for wearing over loose trousers and a knit, or a simple white T-shirt.
