With frigid temperatures on the horizon, it’s tempting to pile on the winter layers and bulk up like the Michelin Man for the duration. Instead, take a style note from chic ladies like Elizabeth Taylor — who always knew how to work a silhouette to her advantage — and Twiggy, who never passed up an opportunity to make a sartorial statement. Choose bold, tailored layers that add a bit of drama to your winter look. See Jane Birkin, Sophia Loren, and more ladies dressed for the cold months in everything from plaid on plaid to full fur (before fur was controversial.) Nary an Ugg in sight.
