How To Pick The Perfect Coat
THE COAT EDIT

How To Pick The Perfect Coat

7 October 2025

Words by: Isla Philo. Design by: Melanie Makariou

If there’s one thing to be excited about when it comes to leaving summer behind, it’s the start of coat season. They’re the icing on the outfit cake of curated looks or the ticket item to instantly uplift your hastily assembled, throw-on-and-go ensembles. To prepare you for your winter coat investment this season, we’re highlighting our key new styles and their ideal end uses, from timeless pieces with 9-5 mileage, to the silhouettes that can withstand serious cold, to bold statement styles. 

Contemporary + Cold Ready

When you’re looking for a clean, contemporary silhouette that still caters to the practicality of a frosty winter, look to the Cocoon Coat + Belt. As the name suggests, the enveloping shape ticks the box of warmth, while the neutral shades and clean cut promise versatility with a modern edge.

How To Pick The Perfect Coat

Available in Oatmeal or Olive, this oversized Cocoon Coat + Belt is crafted from a heavyweight wool-blend fabric that’s ultra-warm while still providing room for layers without compromising the overall silhouette. It's shaped with a clever back seam that runs across the shoulder blades and down to the cuffs, giving this piece its distinctive curved-sleeve shape. Large patch pockets have more than enough room for phones + gloved hands, while an optional belt means you have the choice to turn it into a wrap style. Complete the ensemble with the colour-matched Teddy Hat + Scarf combo.

Best of all? This is our first style that has a dedicated petite version. That means shorter sleeves, a scaled-down oversized fit and a shorter length, so those with a petite height or figure can enjoy the oversized look, without being overwhelmed by excess fabric.

The Statement Option

This is for the coat fanatic who already has a tried + tested everyday option. If go-with-everything appeal isn’t at the top of your outerwear requirements, then a bold statement is the style for you.

How To Pick The Perfect Coat

Houndstooth is a signature motif throughout our autumn/winter collections, but this season we’re quite literally expanding it into an exaggerated form. Available in red or monochrome, this short tailored coat is crafted from a classic Italian wool fabric with a textured, woven surface. It follows a boxy, short fit with wide sleeves, meaning there’s plenty of room to load up on winter layers.

The Town-To-Country Solution

As a British brand, we take our heritage-inspired styles seriously. And by heritage styles, we mean silhouettes that look just as at home on a dog walk through the fields as they do in a cosy London pub, or draped over eveningwear.

How To Pick The Perfect Coat

The Double Espresso Cape Coat is crafted from a weighty-yet-fluid wool-blend felted fabric, shaped into an enveloping cut with wide, short-sleeves ideal for layering over knits. An engineered seam that runs from cuff to cuff over the shoulder blades maintains the overall curved shape and ensures there's room for layers underneath, while a rounded point collar adds a smart touch. 

Or take our softened reimagining of the masculine pea coat. Oversized wide lapels, a curved cocooning engineered seam and perfectly placed front pockets tick the boxes for contemporary function. While the Camel hue and wool + alpaca blend coating fabric assures you have everything you practically need from a winter coat - warmth and go-with-everything versatility. 

The (Ultra) Luxe Investment

Nothing makes a luxurious statement like a shearling piece. And since shearling is a serious forever investment, we make sure that we utilise trend-transcending cuts and colours to truly give these styles endless appeal. So when you take the shearling plunge, you can be assured you’ll get years of return on investment.

How To Pick The Perfect Coat
The Weekday Hero

When it comes to choosing 9-5 ready outerwear, shape + colour are your key areas to consider. It has to seamlessly style over a multitude of everyday looks, not only through a versatile colour choice, but it also needs to be the right shape to fit comfortably over layers.

How To Pick The Perfect Coat

Take the classic route with this season’s Tailored Coat, made from an Italian wool fabric that has the perfect blend of softness + structure. Traditional tailoring codes like padded shoulders, a double-breasted front and peak lapels strike an androgynous note, while the camel colour means easy styling with bold shades or muted neutrals alike.
