Help me find this jacket

I am 5'3 and have been wearing the same Bench maxi-coat for over 12 years now. (Am 39 so too old for Bench I feel) I have some lovely coats but that is the only one full length, fitted and with a hood so good for rain.

Anyway, saw an AMAZING jacket on a bus worn by very elegant late-40's/early 50's woman. Obv took care of herself, blonde styled hair, nice jeans and heels but completely age-appropriate.

Anyway, the jacket was black, fitted, had three little buckles either side of the waist and was slightly lower at the bag.
It may have zipped up or buttoned, I don't know.

And it was suitable for wearing in the rain.

It was FAB. It was all I could do not to yell "Oi luv, where'd you get that jacket"

Actually I wish I had now!
What was it? Where can I get one?

You will have to haunt that bus-route!

Whenever I (rarely) ask about something someone is wearing, they usually say that they've had it for years.

It was the 26 bus fishie.
Really any well cut fitted rain jacket would do.
It was probably v. expensive anyway. [defeatist]
