3 Winning Looks for Winter in the City
Created with Akris

Winter in Manhattan calls for clothing that’s warm enough for a stroll in Central Park and chic enough for cioccolata calda at Sant Ambroeus afterward. It’s a big ask, but armed with the right coat—like the impeccably tailored ones that Akris, which celebrates its 100th anniversary this year, does so beautifully—along with the styling strategies below, you’ll be good to go…anywhere.
Layer with Leather
Worn with thick tights and tall boots, a leather skirt is surprisingly warm without sacrificing an ounce of style. Up top, a tonal bodysuit and shearling coat keep the cold from creeping in. Grab a contrasting bag (this woven one is a fun, textural take on Akris’s classic trapezoid style) and you’re ready to hit the shops.

Incorporate Athleisure
Start with leggings, then layer—liberally—for instant warmth and dimension. Chunky cleated boots play into the sporty vibe and provide traction on slippery sidewalks while teardrop studs add welcome sparkle.
