Coat question

8 replies

Lostapieceofme · 21/10/2011 09:41

I've just bought this coat www.karenmillen.com/Soft-structured-belted-coat/Sale-Outerwear/karenmillen/fcp-product/903000056408 and absolutely adore it, except the sleeves. I hadn't realised that the sleeves are open from armpit to wrist. I really, really love everything else about it, including the shape of the sleeves, so really want to find a solution. Would you:

a. keep it and try to get used to the weird sleeves
b. get it altered (maybe a panel insert)
c. send it back and keep looking

Thank you Smile

That coat is utterly ridiculous.

For £130 you could get much better. Will look.

What size are you?

Size 12 THE. Ridiculous really? Hmm, I did suspect I'd lost my judgement with this one.

It's not you that's ridiculous, that coat is!

A winter coat with sleeves split from wrist to armpit? No wonder it's in the sale.

All the coats Tethers posted are nicer than the one you bought OP!

And cheaper.

And you must DEFFO get the turquoise hat to go with said coat in link 3.

I love the third one, thank you so much. And I agree Collision, that hat is fabulous.

Returning daft coat now :-(
