Max Mara
Max Mara makes the coats people buy once and wear for decades: the 101801, the Teddy Bear and the Manuela. These are the Max Mara coats our editors recommend, with prices checked daily.
The three Max Mara coats to know
101801
The 101801 has been in the collection since the 1980s. Its wool and cashmere blend is felted over 73 steps for softness and a gentle sheen, and it is double-breasted, belted and cut with draped sleeves.
Teddy Bear
Launched in 2013 and reissued again and again since, the Teddy Bear is camel hair woven with silk into a plush pile, cut oversized to go over everything.
Manuela
A camel-hair wrap coat, lined in satin and tied at the waist, with a relaxed shape that sits well over knitwear and tailoring.
Which one should you buy?
Choose the 101801 if you wear tailoring most days. Choose the Teddy Bear for volume and warmth over casual clothes. Choose the Manuela for an easy wrap coat. Read our story on the 101801.
