Hitchcock, the Oscar-vehicle starring Anthony Hopkins as Hitch and Scarlett Johansson as Janet Leigh, hit select theaters this past weekend. There hasn’t been much fashion buzz about the film aside from Scarlett Johansson’s Psycho-themed V cover, which focused more on her scream than her clothes (as well it should have), but we’ve always had a soft-spot for the fashion in Hitchcock’s films.
As someone who really hates New York’s frigid winters, I probably should embrace Uniqlo’s Heattech line more than I have. But one item I have embraced is their tights.
They look like your average pair of opaque black tights, but are somehow–I swear–warmer than pants.
New York weather makes no sense these days. One day there’s a hurricane (those typically happen in the summer) and the next it’s 30 degrees and snowing. It’s supposed to warm up again this weekend, but we know that cold isn’t going to stay away for long. So to prepare ourselves, and everyone as we approach real winter, we’ve rounded up 10 coats that possess everything you want in your outerwear: style, function, versatility, warmth, and affordability–they all come in at less than $300. From parkas to puffers to duffles, click through to shop!
Cold? Us, too. Lucky for us, Uniqlo has collaborated with Theory on a capsule collection of down jackets for the whole family called T Down.
