Trend of the week: Time to keep warm for winter

Follow the fashion flock to the ultimate winter warmer, says Annmarie O’Connor.

INSPIRATION

This sheepsk in textures are realised in perfect proportions of cosy and considered.

Think less bulky, more body-hewn – with a failsafe snug factor.

Best in show? Look to catwalkcreations by Coach, Chloé and Gucci, or take the high street in purse-friendly options by To pshop Unique, Penneys or Warehouse.

STYLE NOTES

Layer a sheepskin jacket over a maxi dress and ankle boots for a winter spin on boho.

Balance prodigious shearling proportions with long and lean separates like superfine knits and straight leg trousers.

Combine sheepskin and shearling with textures like cashmere and suede, denim and leather for a multi-textured look.

Feeling sheepish? Look to discrete accents like shearling edging on boots and bags.
