Okay, I have to admit that I was a tad bit disappointed after waking up to snow on the ground here in Chicago. But, sightings of snow has ever dried up the drip for the winter, am I right? ‘Tis the season to separate ‘those who really do this’ from ‘the posers,’ #respectfully! This week we’re looking into some fly ass outerwear to rock this winter. Whether you prefer a Mongolian (faux or real), puffer jacket, parka, or a classic trench remixed, staying warm + stylish is a must. So, without further ado, let’s get into these pieces and the creative designers behind them as we prepare for FW20!

A-COLD-WALL F/W 2020 Suilven Quilted Jacket

The color, the cut, the elongated neck, and the jacket is 100% Nylon – Issa win! It’ll keep you warm, fly, and dry. I can see this piece styled on so many fly guys and girls. Whether it’s paired with a tailormade suit or your dopest Streetwear digs, the versatility of this jacket is plentiful!

p4-star Peacoat Varsity Jacket 

Brooklyn Circus has been providing us gems for years, I love how timeless their pieces are and most importantly they can be worn with just about anything! With this varsity jacket, you can rock it just as a light jacket for now, then layer it up depending on the weather. BkC pieces are timeless, and those who own a varsity appreciates its value because they rock it with much Style & Grace!
Ouigi Theodore, creator and owner of Brooklyn Circus

Laquan Smith Quilted Puffer Coat

Laquan Smith has been giving me life these past few years! I am a huge fan of the Hype Williams era, so when I saw this jacket it exudes the peak of Black Culture and Style during those times in Hip Hop! The way Laquan is able to make EVERYONE look elegant in his clothing is amazing to me. This jacket will definitely be named one of this most classic designs. Especially after Normani blessed us while wearing it.

Mojave Puffer Jacket

It’s the voluminous puffer collar and hood for me! In my opinion, this brand is one of the youngest innovative brands out right now! With every new drop, the pre-sale is SOLD OUT including the Mojave Puffer Jacket (shown above). The majority of the pieces designed by the D.C. native are unisex with a heavy Art influence! If ever you’re looking for a bomb puffer, WIZZOLX is a great choice, but you better click quick, the demand is high!

Candice Blue Wool Jacket

The 100% Mongolian lambswool jacket is a conversation piece for sure! Let this luxe and stylish outerwear be your statement piece for FW20. I love the way the stylist curated this look because it shows the versatility of the jacket. No matter your sense of style you’re givin’ the kids’ POSH GIRL IN THE CITY or Cookie Monster Glam every time you pull out Ms. Candice Blue! Now, EAT!
Rene Macdonald, creator and designer of Lisou London
