Stylish raincoats for ladies: top 10 coats to wear during the transitional seasons

The 'Antique Gold' colour of this Joules raincoat is perfect for transitioning from summer to autumn and winter. It's got plenty of room inside for the layers of clothing you'll need once it gets colder.

Sizes: UK 6-26

Pros: Stylish a-line shape
Cons: Some customers have commented that they need to size down

Review: "I love this coat and I love Joules. In an attempt to turn my back on fast fashion, I have been trying to invest in clothes which will last years and I know that Joules is worth the money. This coat is so well made and very comfortable. I’ve had a lot of compliments about this coat! One of my favourite things about this coat is the inside pockets, which women’s clothes so rarely have. Additionally, it also has cuffs on the sleeves that make sure I don’t have the unpleasant sensation of rain somehow going down my arm."

Jazz up your casual styling with the addition of this fabulous animal print raincoat from Marks & Spencer. Wear it open or pop up the hood, tighten the cuffs and fasten the zipper and poppers to keep the water out and lock in the warmth on those chillier days.

Sizes: UK 6-24

Pros: Pockets outside and in to keep your valuables secure and dry
Cons: Some customer didn't like how the beak of the hood sticks out when it's not being worn

Review: "Been looking for a nice raincoat for a while & absolutely love this. Some are too flimsy & some are too bulky, but this one is just what I was after. Fit is perfect & bang on trend. Can't wait to wear it."

Adding a pop of colour to contrast against the grey, rainy skies is this anorak raincoat. It has a fit-and-flare design, made from shell fabric that rain will just glide straight off.

Sizes: UK 6-18

Pros: Lightweight
Cons: Some reviews have mentioned the coat had an unpleasant smell when it first arrived

Review: "Quality clothes. Lovely coat, gorgeous colour. Good fit, always reliable."

Heading out for the day and unsure of the weather? This spotty pac-a-mac will have you covered. It neatly folds up so you can chuck it in your bag and pop it on if you get caught in any summery showers.

Sizes: UK 8/10-32/34

Pros: Easy to carry around in case of rain
Cons: Too lightweight for heavy showers

As its name suggests, this raincoat jacket is perfect for throwing on during cooler days and rainy spells. It has a practical shower-proof finish and quilting in the front and arms for added warmth. Available in this gorgeous Peacock Green, as well as a Blue Haze colourway.

Sizes: UK 10-26

Pros: Light but also warm
Cons: One review thought the jacket was on the pricey side

Review: "Good lightweight jacket. A little on the large size but this means could wear an extra layer under it in the autumn. Also like that hood can be unzipped from jacket when you need a smarter looking jacket (unless it is raining!)."

From dog walking to travelling, this lightweight mac is perfect for outdoor adventures with its warm exterior layer and shower-resistant material. We love the subtle colour clash of the pale pink zips against the navy exterior.

Sizes: UK 6-24

Pros: Can be folded away into itself to compact it down
Cons: Reviews state this jacket comes big, some customers have ordered two sizes down for the perfect fit

Review: Light, comfortable, and easy to fold. I like the extra packet in front left, great for the keys, oyster or credit card. True to its size, perfect for rainy and windy days. I’m a huge fan of Fat Face and highly recommend the product.

A trench is just one of those raincoats that never goes out of style, whatever the season. This one is made from lightweight and waterproof rubberised PU and comes complete with feminine touches, such as the waist tie belt and flattering knee-length finish.

Sizes: UK 8-16

Cons: At a more expensive price point, not as wide a range of sizes compared to other coats

Review: "Truly waterproof. Lightweight. Good fit. Stylish but not overstated."

Stand out in a storm with this beautiful purple waterproof jacket from Joules. It has all the features you’d expect from a waterproof jacket, so you can be prepared for any rainfall that's headed your way.

Pros: Packs down into its own pouch

Review: "Love the colour of this jacket. Great for taking on holiday and doesn't take up much room in a suitcase."

Casual in style and loose fitting while also being fashionable, elevate your casual, rainy day style with this pink windbreaker raincoat. Perfect for chucking on if it starts spitting while you're out on a walk.

Sizes: S-XXL

Pros: Designed with a drawstring hood and adjustable hem for a more tailored fit
Cons: Suitable for light rain only

Review: "I’m really happy with the product, it’s lightweight which was my main aim for a coat like this. Has a little carry case/bag that holds the coat. Easy to carry around in its bag. Seemed to be waterproof when I was caught in a light to medium downpour. Has a hood. Has pockets."

Whether you get caught in a sprinkle, a drizzle or a quick downpour, you'll stay nice and dry wearing the Sykooria waterproof jacket. The quick-drying outer material will soon get rid of the water and the army colour is super trendy too.

Sizes: S-XXL

Pros: Water and windproof
Cons: Some reviews have stated the coat comes up small

Review: "Love this coat, and everybody who has seen it has commented on how great it looks, and more importantly it keeps you dry for frequent UK summer showers. It can also be machine washed."
