Faux fur is officially back on the autumn agenda, and this season it’s become one of the smartest ways to update your outerwear.

From oversized shearling silhouettes to jewel-toned statement fur coats, or even leopard print borg jackets, there’s plenty for the minimalist, maximalist and everyone in between.

It’s no longer confined to après-ski glamour or occasionwear; instead, faux fur has been reworked into autumn and winter wardrobe staples through trench coats, reversible styles, collarless jackets and more.

Some have faux fur accents, like lapels or cuffs, while other are an all-over design. You also don’t need to spend a fortune to get the look right, especially with some of the gems we’ve spotted on the high street.

We’ve done the hard work of scrolling through every high street retailer to find the pieces that are worth your money this autumn.

From budget-friendly buys under £50 to a few splurge-worthy investments, there’s a faux fur jacket here for every style and every price point.

So, if you’ve been eyeing up a faux fur piece but weren’t sure where to start, consider this your edit.

These are the plush jackets and coats we’ve got our eye on for autumn.

M&S Faux Fur Collared Short Jacket

Proof that faux fur doesn't have to break the bank, this cropped jacket from M&S perfect for combating colder temperatures. Available in XS to XL, the shorter lengths makes it feel less formal and more versatile than a floor-length number, without compromising on cosiness.

M&S Per Una Faux Fur Collar Suedette Jacket

Suedette and faux fur make a stylish pair in this jacket, which looks much more expensive than it actually costs. You’d be forgiven for thinking this could be a designer piece. It’s soft with a little structure, and not too much fur that it overwhelms – the perfect thing to elevate a plain t-shirt and jeans.

By Anthropologie PU Faux-Fur Trim Trench Coat

A twist on the classic trench, this coat features super-soft faux-fur lapels for extra warmth and drama, but all the tailoring to smarten up any outfit. It’s fun, functional and well worth the splurge.

H&M Collarless Jacket

H&M can always be relied upon for a budget on-trend find, and this jacket is a leopard lover's dream. It comes with a matching faux fur skirt, which we’re obsessed with, but would also pair well over a black slip dress and pointed-toe boots.

River Island Brown Faux Suede Shearling Tie Jacket

Shearling and suede come together in this tie-waist jacket, which can cinch in your waist to look extra snatched and to keep a windy chill out. The shearling adds warmth without weight, and it’s easy to layer over skirts, jeans and dresses all autumn long.

River Island Purple Faux Mongolian Fur Coat

If you want to make a statement this season, this Mongolian-style fur coat from River Island ticks every box. We love this grape purple hue and the fluffy texture that dresses up even the plainest outfits and adds a pop of colour to our autumn wardrobe.

Topshop Faux Fur Funnel Neck Detachable Length Coat

Consider this two coats in one, thanks to a clever design that features a detachable hem so you can wear it cropped or longline, depending on the occasion or the weather. The funnel neck adds extra coverage on chillier days, while the light green colour feels fresh against the usual autumn palette of browns and reds.

Mint Velvet Brown Faux Fur Reversible Jacket

Another style that gives you double the wear is this reversible jacket, which switches between plush faux fur and a smooth, tonal finish depending on your mood. It's a clever way to maximise your wardrobe without maximising your spend. It’s a win-win.
