    By Laurie Trott

    There's nothing like a mid-fall snowstorm to remind us that coat season is here. But how do you bundle up without looking like the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man? We've found our favorite coats that will keep you warm and still show off your shape.

  • Curves Ahead

    2 of 12

    Create an hourglass figure or just enhance the one you have with a coat that nips at the waist and flares at the hem.

  • Swingers

    3 of 12

    This A-line, '60s-inspired silhouette works well on girls with slim hips. Pair it with wide-leg trousers and heels to balance proportions.

  • Double Down

    4 of 12

    To minimize a larger bust, look for a classic peacoat that is open at the neck.

  • Fur Real

    5 of 12

    A cropped fur jacket adds volume up top, balancing out proportions on a pear-shaped figure, and keeps you fashion forward in leopard print.

  • Tall Order

    6 of 12

    Create curves on a tall, boyish figure with a detailed neckline and belted waist.

    Stay warm and maintain the appearance of a slim torso when the temperature drops by slipping on a black or navy puffer jacket that belts at the waist.

  • Golden Ratio

    8 of 12

    For a taller frame, choose a fur jacket that hits right above the thigh to give the appearance of a longer torso.

  • Shear Bliss

    9 of 12

    Get the shearling effect without all the bulk by opting for a military style with vertical lines, which draw the eye to the center and give a slimming effect.

  • Soft Sell

    10 of 12

    A draped, unstructured trench that sits high on the waist creates the illusion of longer legs.

  • Caped Crusader

    11 of 12

    Capes are a must-have for the season. For petite frames, look for one that is structured and hits just below the waist.

  • Tailor Made

    12 of 12

    Keep warm and look chic with a parka that has a pintuck back and falls right below your bottom.
