Editors, Celebs and Influencers All Agree: This Is the Coat Brand to Be Seen In
Founded by Elin Kling and Karl Lindman in 2014, Totême was built around the concept of a modern uniform. Over the last seven years, the brand has won over the fashion crowd with its uniquely Scandi twist on wardrobe staples, from immaculate tailoring to classic knits. Totême's coat offering, however, has proven to be a particular success in recent years, with celebs (hello, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley), influencers and editors alike investing in its luxurious signature wrap designs.
Rosie HW was particularly a fan of the brand's quilted wrap coat back in winter 2020, and thankfully, the style has returned for another season, as have the classic camel-coloured iterations. There are also a few new outwear pieces to fall in love with, such as the leather-trim shearling jacket as seen on Lucy Williams and the toggle-fasten cashmere coat. But the beauty of the brand is that all of its designs are sure to stand the test of time and will look just as good with your jeans as they will over smarter dresses. Scroll down to see how the fashion set is wearing theirs, and shop our favourite Totême coats.

I stopped in my tracks when I saw this shearling jacket on Lucy Williams. Just so cool.
You can't go wrong with Totême's checked wrap coat. It's a surefire way to add interest to a classic jeans-and-tee pairing.
