The best winter dressing trick is also the laziest: throw a good tee, a trusted pair of jeans and a flat shoe together, then layer a really good coat over the top and let it do all the talking. The jacket becomes the outfit — and honestly, the rest is just what you wear underneath it. We're fully on board, and so, it seems, is anyone who has made the trench buttoned all the way to the top a year-round commitment. For some, it's a Lily-Rose Depp meme — for others, it's a way of life. So we've pulled together an edit of the outerwear worth actually investing in — all designed here in Australia, all built on the kind of fabrication that earns its price tag. Think double-faced Australian wool, melton wool-cashmere, genuine cowhide, lamb shearling and silk dupion, in everything from sculptural bombers and oversized macs to a faux-snakeskin trench. These are the pieces you buy once and reach for constantly, season after season.
