I thought I was in love with a coat from the really wild clothing company

So I ordered it, and it's just a bit too long, and maybe a bit frumpy?? It's the Aston coat in fawn, blue and pink. Any ideas of where to look for something similar but maybe a bit more funky? Am happy to pay up to about £400. (Caveat nothing purple or maroon, and nothing full length or jacket like!) Grin Oh, and has to be fitted and has to have a collar. Can anyone help on my quest??

Probably not something that dark, and possibly something a bit smarter, but more country??? Does that even make sense?? Confused

Have you tried Du Barry ? They do some lovely ones!

Are they the ones that do the lovely boots? I will take a look, thanks

Yes - haven't looked at their coats for a while but the one you linked immediately made me think of them.

Dubarry should stick to boots, they are fantastic. However, a couple of years ago i bought their top of the range padded tweed coat and the press studs came off and stictching undone and i paid £650 for the privilege. I wouldnt waste my money, i think the quality was very poor.

A bit above your budget but is similar to your original coat but a bit shorter / cooler...??
