Modern fashion trends increasingly show a mixture of seemingly incompatible styles and images. Dresses and skirts no longer require high heels; they can be worn with sneakers, loafers and slip-ons. And an autumn coat, as it turns out, looks good in combination with jeans.
But in practice, combining “things from different operas” is not as easy as it seems. The variety of new models and styles on the catwalks raises many questions among fashionistas. How to make a fashionable look look harmonious, appropriate and not cause laughter behind your back? Let's turn to stylists for help.
From ancient times
Coats as outerwear have many predecessors that have appeared since time immemorial, among the peoples of different countries. The origins of the coat go back to Ancient Rome and Ancient Greece. Having changed many styles, cut options and names, ancient analogues of coats are found throughout Europe and, of course, thanks to the cold climate in Russia. Armyak, caftan, short fur coat, shushun, etc. are Russian analogues of coats from the fourteenth to the nineteenth centuries.
Now a coat can be found in the wardrobe of almost any fashionista, and a fashionista too. Being a common outerwear for men and women, the wearing season of which is approximately from September to May, the coat has become a favorite item for introducing all sorts of new ideas by stylists and designers.
Classic forever
Modern urban style spreads the trend towards convenience and comfort. And this is partly why the answer to the question “do they wear a coat with jeans” can be given in the affirmative, moreover, this image is becoming more and more popular. But at the same time, it is worth considering such points as style, style, color, features of the figure and additions to the image in the form of accessories.
Outerwear can be either a classic cut or other styles, of different lengths, straight or trapezoidal, oversized or in military style. A classic coat is fitted, knee-length or a palm higher, with or without a belt and a collar. A classic is a classic, and purchasing a classic option is a long-term investment in your wardrobe, since the purchase will serve you as a basic item for many years.
This model looks great with dresses and skirts that are plus or minus ten centimeters the length of the coat itself. Also, as a duet, feel free to consider a classic model with jeans or black, brown, gray straight-fit trousers.
Classic Coat and Jeans looks
What jeans go well with a classic coat cut? This will depend on the place where you are going to go this time. For a strict office look, it is better to choose simple tapered jeans without stripes, holes or abrasions in a calm dark blue color. Classic shoes are also suitable for this look - stiletto heels, boots with stable heels or ankle boots.
And for casual walks in the city, the classic model can be combined with wide boyfriend jeans, tight skinny jeans, ripped jeans, and jeans decorated with various decor (appliques, beads, holes and scuffs). It all depends on your mood and taste. And the shoes in such a set can be different - for skinny ones, fashionable high-top boots are suitable, for trendy torn ones - white sneakers or very comfortable sneakers.
But be careful, because a classic coat with jeans and sneakers is very youthful and can play a cruel joke on you. This image should not be applied to women after forty years. Ladies in their prime are better off choosing classic looks - such sets are much better suited than youthful ripped jeans with toxic-colored sneakers.
If the classic model is very wide at the bottom and resembles a trapezoid, you should not wear flared jeans. This will make your figure heavier and make your image unattractive.
City everyday life
The everyday style of a modern resident of a metropolis is called urban. It offers combinations of comfortable and formal, classic and casual items adapted to the needs of women. The combination of jeans and a coat is one of the most popular for this style. Choose plain outerwear, but the color can be any to your taste: deep red, emerald, snow-white, lemon, cornflower blue, etc. Jeans can be straight, skinny or even skinny.
They may have stains and abrasions, but without active finishing: colored stitching, embroidery or rhinestones. It is most convenient to complement your looks with sweaters, long sleeves, T-shirts and shirts in combination with cardigans. And shoes can be taken with a stable heel or a quiet one, including men's style boots and creepers.

Cropped coat
If your coat is just below your hips, then feel free to wear it with different types of jeans: skinny and wide-leg, as well as classic-cut jeans. Shoes can also be varied. These include loafers in a men's style, high boots with or without heels, and ankle boots.
Even a combination of a cropped model with flared jeans would be appropriate. Shoes should not be flat. It is better to choose rough boots with high, stable heels.
As long as you wear high heels, a short coat with rolled-up or cropped jeans will look great. In this case, outerwear will play the role of a warmer jacket. A belt or belt in this look will make your silhouette slimmer.
Hello from the past!
Flared jeans are a cult item of the 70s. It goes well with a suede coat above the knee and accessories with fringe, embroidery, and appliqués. Add a blouse or blouse in a floral, floral, ethnic or fantasy pattern and shoes with stable high heels, and the set is ready. Not tempted by the idea of a hippie theme? Then create a simpler modern set based on monochromatic items, as in the next photo.

Long coat with jeans
Outerwear is considered long if it is below the knee or to the ankle. Under a long coat made of warm drape, we choose skinny or cropped jeans, as it is easier to tuck them nicely into the top of a boot.
Depending on the weight of the material from which long outerwear is made, choose shoes. A light coat with jeans and high-heeled shoes looks beautiful and feminine. Then both wide jeans and boyfriends will suit this look. Although winter models go well with ankle boots or stiletto boots, suede shoes go very well with the look.
But it is better to avoid flared jeans with long outerwear, as this will make the look too massive at the bottom.
Jeans and Overcoat looks
Models that go below the knees or reach the ankle can be worn with jeans, but the look must be complemented with appropriate accessories. This is good in winter, so boots are also suggested. This means that jeans should be skinny. It is advisable to tuck them into shoes with heels. One of the rules is not to make the style heavier. Ankle boots would also be a great addition.
Stylists recommend jazzing up your look with a not-so-massive short scarf. If you wear shoes, you should choose chunkier options. And, of course, no flared jeans. This will make the style even heavier. You can choose trousers with a length of 7/8, which will modernize the look and give it some piquancy.
If a long coat is made not from drape, but from a lighter fabric, it is permissible to vary the combinations of any clothing. Jeans in this case can be of any color. The main thing is that everything matches the season.
Sports look
You shouldn’t be surprised, but coats have recently been actively used in sporty looks. More precisely, all the “sportiness” of the image is given by the appropriate shoes, as a rule, sneakers, sneakers or sneakers.
For this look (the so-called sport chic), a classic coat is suitable, preferably straight or oversized, long, as well as a wrap model. The main thing is to remember that outerwear should not have a fitted cut, although a long model with sneakers can be complemented with a belt. A fitted outfit with sneakers should only be worn unbuttoned - this look is suitable for early autumn (late spring), when it is too early to put on (take off) outerwear.
Distressed, cropped and boyfriend jeans look great in a sporty look, but skinny jeans will look good too.
Oversize coat (or cocoon)
A loose-fitting oversized model, or cocoon coat, usually of medium or short length, tapered at the bottom.
The very name of this model literally means “oversized.” Thanks to its deliberate bagginess, emphasizing the fragility of the female figure, this option is now at the peak of popularity. This cocoon coat is perfect for girls of any size.
When combining oversized models with jeans, it is important to remember that it is better to complement them with narrow dark blue trousers that fit your figure. Jeans can also be shortened, but the main thing is not too wide, since oversized jeans with the same outerwear will look ridiculous.
You can choose any kind of footwear for this look – from classic high-heeled pumps to military-style boots with textured soles. Sneakers, slip-ons, boots and ankle boots - the choice is up to the weather and yours.
Men's coat and jeans
The coat has taken root well in the men's wardrobe. The strict lines of classic men's outerwear give the silhouette slimness and elegance.
A men's coat can be a versatile outerwear item, perfect for both a strict work dress code (if you wear an office suit) and a more casual environment (a men's coat with jeans and a sweater).
There are no fewer styles of men's coats than women's ones. Perhaps the only difference is that the colors of men’s coats are not as varied as women’s models. But the length, cut, lapels, presence or absence of a collar - there can be many variations. The main thing when choosing a men's coat is to follow the golden rules: the sleeve length of the coat should reach the knuckles of the fingers, and a long coat looks better on a tall man.
If you are thinking about a combination of a men's coat and jeans, this will be a good look only if the cut of the coat is not a classic fitted one. The rest of the styles of men's coats go well with men's jeans of almost any cut.
When choosing shoes for this look, it is also better to avoid classic men's shoes, giving preference to boots, high boots, sneakers or even cowboy-style boots.
Selection of shoes and accessories
Many guys like to wear hats or caps with this look. They fit perfectly under a coat. The hat should be black or gray felt or velor. The cap should be wool or leather.
For reference! Knitted hats will go perfectly with jeans.
You can also complement the look with a scarf. It is better to give preference to classic scarves. If you have a bright hat, then the scarf should match the color of the coat. If we talk about shoes, then you can wear shoes under jeans. As paradoxical as it may sound, you can also wear a coat with jeans and sneakers. It is important that the sneakers are not a bright color and match the jeans.
Black classic
Of course, when choosing a coat, its color is important, which can also be influenced by fashion. Bright fuchsia or canary yellow will perfectly brighten up the gray autumn days. But, as you know, fashion is cyclical, and classics are immortal. In this case, a black coat acts as a classic.
Black color is universal, it can be combined with any other, and besides, it is non-marking. A black coat with jeans is a great option for city everyday life. Any jeans will go with a black coat, the main thing is to take into account the style of both.
Shoes and bright accents in the form of a bag, headdress, scarf or bright shawl will help diversify the look. Moreover, you can do this as often as you want, and each time the image will look fresh, although the base - a black coat and jeans - remains the same.
Light jeans with a coat
It is generally accepted that light-colored jeans are more suitable for the summer season. But do not forget about them for a long time during the cold season. Try combining light jeans with a coat - and your look will not go unnoticed. But you should remember that it is better for girls of luxurious shapes not to wear jeans in light shades.
White or light beige jeans should not be worn with a black coat; with such jeans it is better to opt for any light shade of outerwear. This way the image will look more harmonious, complete and light. The only exception is light blue jeans and a black coat.
But that is not all. You should also consider shoes when pairing a coat with light jeans. Black stilettos are unlikely to go well with light jeans, but black boots with a black bag and a black scarf will create a harmonious look.
What to wear with?
Having decided on the type and shape of the coat, it is important to understand what to wear it with. After all, only successful clothing ensembles emphasize a sense of style and perfection of the image.
Most often, a short coat is worn with narrow or wide trousers, jeans, shorts and dresses.

Advice! To draw attention to the upper part of the silhouette, choose cropped coat models with an accent at the top: two buttons, an unusual collar. Asymmetry at the bottom is also suitable.
Recommendations
Don't be afraid to combine a formal coat and affordable jeans. If you choose and think through everything correctly, then jeans will look harmonious with any coat. All you have to do is choose according to your taste and the weather outside.
Don't forget about accessories to complete the look. A bag, clutch, backpack, various stoles and scarves, belts, belts, hats, as well as appropriate shoes - it is important to take into account absolutely everything to make your appearance perfect. But it is important to remember that the brighter your coat or the more decorated it is (beads, appliqués, sequins), the fewer accessories you need to complement it.
What hat to wear with a men's coat
The headdress should be selected depending on the chosen style. If he is an official business person, then you should choose between a hat and a cap. But everyday images have no boundaries. In a casual style, the coat looks stylish with a hat, cap, or knitted cap. The same is true with sportswear. Don't be afraid to experiment, just like the men in our photos.
