"A black coat is a must-have in my wardrobe – it’s so versatile. Whether I’m dressing casually during the day or heading out in the evening, it always looks polished. Right now, there are so many great options on the high street – and this sleek Mango design is a perfect example For something with a bit more edge, I love a black leather coat. It’s such a cool way to elevate even the simplest looks."

A well fitted black coat will never go out of style but because black isn't my go-to colour for coats, I always make sure there's an interesting detail or texture to make it that little bit more special. From a leather trench to silk-trim wool coat, they'll add just the right amount of drama to my look.

I'm a big fan of collarless jackets – they always create a more modern silhouette, especially if they have a drop shoulder to really exaggerate the shape.

I love the silhouette of a cape coat; it definitely adds a soft, modern touch to classic black. The cape-shoulder detail on this long, wool Chloé style lends an extra feminine edge. On the high street, this short & Other Stories number is a chic and affordable alternative.

This double-breasted coat from House of Dagmar is such a staple – it's also on sale right now, which makes it such a smart purchase. I also love the shawl shape of this ARKET option; the brushed detail looks so expensive.
