Although the collection was full of fluid leathers in aggressive shapes, there was plenty of slick tailoring from Raf Simons at Jil Sander and this sublime double-breasted coat is the perfect example of an updated, heritage-minded piece that’s savvy enough to turn heads while keeping you toasty for years to come. -Naveed Hussain
