Stylish Women Can't Stop Wearing Toteme's Cosy Shearling Jacket (Again)

You’ll read the words ‘forever find’, ‘investment item’ or ‘wardrobe staple’ rather regularly here at Marie Claire—we’re always on the lookout for pieces that not only last a lifetime in your wardrobe but can be styled in countless ways. But few fashion items fit into this category quite as seamlessly as the Toteme shearling jacket. Yes, the cosy coat that dominated our Instagram feeds (and our most stylish friends’ wardrobes) last year is back—and searches for it on Google are up 180% this week alone.

If you so much as glanced at the Autumn/Winter 25 runways, you’ll know shearling is having a serious moment. Zimmermann, Yves Salomon, Chloé and a host of other luxury labels all leaned into the fluffy fabric to create warming pieces without relying on traditional fur. Shearling, made from the skin of a lamb or sheep (often a byproduct of the food industry), sits separately to fur, which can come from animals such as fox, mink, or rabbit bred solely for fashion purposes. Because of this, shearling is considered by many to be a more conscious choice—with the idea that the whole animal is used.

Although, if you’re tempted to invest in a shearling coat this season, you might be wondering just how much wear you’ll actually get out of it. So, I bring you five chic outfit ideas all built around the trending Toteme shearling jacket for inspiration. Proof that cosy and chic can absolutely coincide.
