Fashion designers are starting to pivot away from the beefy, voluminous silhouettes so popular of late and swivel toward something sleeker, slimmer and sometimes downright skinny.

At the fall/winter collections this year, nowhere was the trend more pronounced than in that seasonal staple, the coat. Yohji Yamamoto, still ahead of the curve at 80, sent models down the runway in long, flowing versions that paired his moody, deconstructed tailoring with subtle gray florals. At Ferragamo, 29-year-old Maximilian Davis trimmed the traditionally swaggering double-breasted overcoat to pencil-thin levels. Jil Sander designers Luke and Lucie Meier did the same.
