August is winding down and autumn is winding up the windchill; time to pack up the strappy tanks and formal shorts (they can work, we’ve seen it happen) and embrace the new season! Whether you’re plagued by frosty air-conditioning or just looking to get an early start on your fall shopping, take a look at the very best fall coats to keep a Bridezilla toasty and ready to take on sleet, snow, and sneaky wedding planners.
Are you holding it down for Bridezillas everywhere in a sub-Alaskan locale? Don’t fuss around with frostbitten fingers when you can bundle up in this delicious winter white Burberry Wool/Cashmere Coat (pictured above). We like the big pockets for keeping a signed copy of the wedding planner contract – you never know when she’ll try to back out of getting you 12 dozen Magnolia cupcakes for the reception.
The tulip bottom is what does it for us, especially combined with the patent leather belt. This Jean Paul Gaultier Wool Tricotine Belted Coat works whether you’re battling the elements on the way to a dress fitting, stepping out the rehearsal dinner, or entering the Matrix. Pair with Bulgari wraparounds and preserve the mystique.
It takes a certain type of woman to pull off this sort of coat, and you, Bridezilla? You are that type of woman. Leave it to Dolce & Gabbana to make ruffles look vaguely threatening with this Ruffled Trenchcoat. Pair a statement piece like this with a simple shift dress, red lips, and an imperious expression and you’re bound to get your due, as well as your requested 30% discount on those dahlias you’ve ordered for the reception tables.
Get in touch with the softer side of Bridezilla with this Matthew Williamson Straight Coat. The silvery accents add a touch of spice, while the feminine cut communicate to future in-laws that you’re not stealing their son away, not at all – even if you plan to take him with you back to Paris the minute the marriage certificate is signed.
