An overcoat is an integral part of a classic gentleman's wardrobe but it requires a little bit of thought about your outfit. 00:45 So how should you choose an overcoat for your outfit? As a core principle, it should ideally contrast other elements in your wardrobe. So if you have lots of dark elements in your wardrobe such as gloves, hats or pants; I suggest you go with a light overcoat. Vice versa, if you have lighter accessories and pants, a darker overcoat is better because you always want it to contrast. If you have lots of solids in your wardrobe you can either go with a solid overcoat or with a patterned overcoat. If you go for a solid I suggest to go with an interesting texture, maybe a tweed, maybe a bold weave in a solid color because that makes just all the more useful because you can combine it with different shades of colors but also more interesting and it provides a certain amount of contrast from your otherwise solid pants. 02:19 So how do you style certain overcoat colors? First, let's talk about navy because I think a navy overcoat is perfect as the first overcoat in your collection because you can wear it with formal outfits. You can wear it in the evening as well as informal outfits if you choose the right texture of the fabric. So let's say you don't wear suits to the office. A great first overcoat would be one in a solid tan color such as the one I'm wearing here right now or in a different color. In terms of color, they go with any winter color and in general with almost any color out there. Now, apart from solid overcoats some of the most popular ones out there are herringbone overcoats. Herringbone is a very classic menswear pattern. It's timeless but for overcoats, you want to make sure that it's over-scaled and large, unlike with suits or sport coats where it can be smaller. If you're more at home in a traditional white-collar environment you want to invest in an overcoat that's either gray or charcoal or something that combines all those colors. 09:16 Now, how do you style bolder colored overcoats? First of all let me say I don't think it's a wise idea to invest in a really bold overcoat in yellow, red or maybe green early on because it's just a very narrow field where you can wear it and the cost per wear will be quite high. It's also quite a statement piece and because of that, I think it's only suited to someone who really knows what they're doing and who has an advance closets where all the basics are already covered. Now overcoats are not cheap and most men have just one or two. In order to not keep it boring and to create different looks, I suggest really pay attention to your accessories. 12:27 Outfit Rundown #overcoats #howtostyleanovercoat #notsponsored --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Want to stay updated?
