    The Perfect Coats to Flatter EVERY Body

    By Gina Marinelli, Illustrated by Gabriela Alford, Refinery29
    Our cold-weather dressing strategy is simple: Stay warm, look chic. And, while we never want to sacrifice our silhouette for the sake of a toasty coverall, we admit it can be daunting to find a trusty topper that actually flatters your shape. Until now. In an endless sea of outerwear, we narrowed down the options to find the fits that truly complement each and every frame. The best part? The season's most-loved trends - military, cocoon shapes, and car coats - also happen to be some of the most flattering. Old Man Winter, bring it on.

      Short Torso - Blazer coats are not only on-trend, they also happen to flatter a range of body types. This shape, with its long lapel, will help elongate a short torso. Just remember to pick a hem that's not too far past your hips, so you can show off the length of your legs as well.
