Planning a winter trip to Dubai? You might think you can leave your winter wear behind — after all, it’s the desert. But surprise! From December to February, the city serves up breezy evenings and chilly desert nights that can dip to 10–12°C. It’s not snowing, sure, but it’s definitely not tank-top weather 24/7.

In a city that blends modern luxury with deep-rooted culture, your wardrobe should do the same — practical, respectful, and stylish. Whether you’re strolling through Al Fahidi, lounging at the beach, or dining by the marina, you’ll want outfits that keep you warm without weighing you down.

Good news? You don’t have to buy a whole new winter wardrobe. Kosha’s winter wear rentals have you covered with layers that are light, breathable, and fashion-forward.

1. What’s Winter Like in Dubai?

Dubai’s winters are more like an extended autumn. While days hover around 16–18°C, nights can get unexpectedly chilly — especially if you're headed to the desert or taking an evening dhow cruise.

You won’t need a snow parka, but a few smart, breathable layers go a long way.

2. What to Pack: The Layering Formula

Light Winter Jackets for Women

You’ll want a jacket that works for outdoor dinners, open-top bus tours, and yes, those air-conditioned malls that feel more like walk-in freezers. Kosha’s Winter Jackets for Women are sleek and functional — designed to keep you cosy without bulk.

Opt for a lightweight puffer or windbreaker that packs easily and transitions seamlessly from day to night.

Base Layers That Breathe

You might not see them, but base layers make a massive difference. They regulate your body temperature and wick away sweat — perfect for daytime explorations that stretch into the evening.

Kosha’s base layers, made with a soft merino wool and bamboo blend, are breathable, quick-drying, and anti-odour. Ideal for a trip where laundry isn’t on the itinerary.

Pullover Hoodie Sweatshirts For Women

For casual coffee runs, market strolls., or hanging out at Kite Beach, Pullover Hoodie Sweatshirts For Women bring that effortless comfort. Choose neutral or pastel shades for easy styling. Pro tip: Kosha’s reversible options double your outfit choices while cutting down your packing list.

Sweaters Pullovers for Men

Gentlemen, don’t be fooled by the sun. You’ll want a reliable mid-layer too. Sweaters Pullovers for Men from Kosha offer warmth without the weight — think classic V-necks or crew styles in rich, breathable wool. Great for layering over tees or under light jackets.

3. Stylish and Smart Accessories

Accessories are the unsung heroes of winter dressing in Dubai. They don’t just complete your outfit — they serve function too.

Beanies, Scarves & Gloves

Scarves add warmth and a dash of flair to simple outfits. Choose a wool or cashmere-blend scarf in a neutral tone or geometric print. They pair well with anything — from jeans to abayas.

Gloves may seem extra, but you’ll appreciate them on windy nights or when snapping Insta stories in chilly conditions. Kosha offers touchscreen-compatible options lined with fleece or merino wool.

Warm Socks

Chilly floors in hotel rooms and cold desert sand call for reliable socks. Kosha’s merino wool pairs are moisture-wicking, breathable, and ultra-comfortable. Pack extras — your feet will thank you.

4. Footwear for the City and Sand

Footwear in Dubai should strike a balance between style and support. Here’s the winning combo:

• Sneakers: Lightweight, cushioned, and great for daytime tours.

• Waterproof boots: For desert safaris or dune-bashing excursions.

• Slip-on loafers or flats: Perfect for casual dinners and mall walks.

Remember, Dubai involves a lot of walking. Prioritise comfort without compromising on flair.
