Think of winter 2018 as the season for glam-royal-funky-playful-opulent outerwear. The Fashiontag blog pronounced “it’s as if this season waited patiently for all coat trends and looks to parade themselves throughout time and then brilliantly selected only the best.”

Yes, designers delivered stunning coats this year, but look at the vintage inspirations for these coats, and make a statement with vintage!
