Shearling and Faux Fur Are Fall's Coziest Trend

Shearling and Faux Fur Are Fall's Coziest Trend

Shearling and faux fur have become fall's most visible textures, showing up on coats, bags, clogs and even knit collars. The look nods to 70s glamour and après-ski dressing at once, and it gives a plain winter wardrobe instant richness. This edit collects the pieces where that plush texture does the talking.

Shearling Bags

The shearling bag is the surprise hit of the season, soft enough to feel like a pet and structured enough to carry daily. Shoppers, small shoulder bags and clutches all come covered in plush texture. Carry one with a smooth leather coat for contrast. If you want to keep going, Shearling and Faux-Fur Bags is the one I would read next.

Shearling Shoes

Shearling-lined clogs, mules and loafers bring the trend down to the ground. They are warm for cold days and add a little texture to plain trousers. Suede and shearling is the classic mix.

Faux Fur and Shearling Coats

A plush coat is the boldest way to wear this trend, and it is everywhere this fall. Cropped faux fur jackets, long shearling coats and shawl collars all fit in. Choose one shape and let the texture do the work. I went deeper on a related idea in Faux Fur Collar Jackets: Plush Collars, Shearling and Suede.

More Plush Pieces

Faux fur collars, shearling trims and knit layers bring the trend to smaller pieces. A tweed top with a fur collar or a cardigan with a removable collar adds softness without full commitment. These are the easiest entry points.

Wear the Texture

The beauty of this trend is how one plush piece changes everything around it. Start with a bag or a collar, then work up to a coat if you love it. Fall is the time to get cozy.
