Wondering how to dress down the most luxe coats in your rotation? According to Swedish supermodel Elsa Hosk, the secret formula is simple: a hint of Donald Duck and a dose of denim
On a brisk November morning in Los Angeles, Elsa Hosk proved that even the most extravagant coat can be rendered delightfully low-key. The two-time Vogue Scandinavia cover star stepped out in Valentino’s opulent leopard-print Fauve Eclat Spotted Wool Cloth coat from the Cruise 2026 collection – complete with its glossy finish, shearing trim and sweet taffeta bow.

Ever the styling savant, Hosk defused the coat’s high-drama energy with a string of decidedly down-to-earth touches. A vintage Disney Donald Duck T-shirt (a former favourite of the model's) and straight-cut light-wash denim playfully tempered the look, grounded by chocolate kitten heels courtesy of The Row. The ultimate finishing touch, however, was a denim Valentino Garavani DeVain bag, slung from her hand.
