(PEOPLE) -- Leading ladies know how to wear white coats without looking like lab technicians or Good Humor men.

The trick is steering clear of blinding whites and instead opting for softer, creamier tones in luxe, sophisticated fabrics.

From Cate Blanchett in buttery soft, perforated leather and wool to Renee Zellweger in yummy, clingy cashmere, the color is soft, superelegant and a welcome detour from the season's traditional dark hues.

"The freshness and purity of white lifts your spirits in the dead of winter," says designer Donna Karan, who cloaked Julianne Moore and Jennifer Garner. "It is the ultimate luxury."

So too is the seriously stylish woman's great white hope -- an on-call professional dry cleaner to make sure the garment is always pristine.
