Decent maternity coat?

4 replies

I will need a decent warm maternity coat - preferably parka/down style - for the winter. Initial online searches are not revealing anything even half way nice. Ideally I prefer the longer cuts (mid-thigh at least, if not knee length) and have a preference for navy but any half-decent colour will do. Has anyone found the holy grail of warm winter maternity coat?

And a small rant, every website I've looked at so far has dozens of poses from the model in the coat but none with the coat closed or zipped up. For a winter coat, designed to accommodate a giant bump, surely this is the most important photo! All coats for and look fine if I'm happy to leave my poor frozen tummy sticking out in front getting frostbite.

I've got a coat from next that has a zip in extra panel for bump - I figure once bump has gone I can still wear the coat even for baby wearing without the panel.

I got a dark blue maternity parka by New Look from asos for £35. It's not as long as you want but it's really really warm and has lots of room for my bump.

I've got a JoJo one that's down, quite long, black and has an extra panel to insert when bump is huge. Wearing it right now and it's lush! So warm and comfy. £65 so not horrendously expensive either.
