I need a funky raincoat

10 replies

Speedos · 23/02/2013 21:01

Not a padded one but for spring or summer showers plus I am off to Sydney in a couple of weeks and it's pouring there at the moment but not cold.

Need it to cover my bum and a bit of shape around the waist, I'm size 10 on a good day. Don't mind what colour, budget up to £100.

Anyone seen anything nice?

TIA

Something like this?

Kind of, need a hood though! Thanks.

I've seen good ones from the nordics in TK Maxx.

Try TKMaxx. I recently bought a very flattering SOS Jenson one in there for £50, very well made. There is striped one on the website but the one I got is patterned.

Sorry euro I didn't read properly, the shorter one is perfect but too short for my bum, I'm tempted to get it anyway to try.

iseenodust is your SOS Jenson one the same style as the one on website? Style is great but not sure about cream and brown stripe. May pop into TK Maxx tomorrow.

It's hard to tell. I bought a floral patterned one. In the shop were two similar but different styles in that brand. The one I've got and I think the one on the website have a zip up the front and then small flap across that to keep the rain out. The other one didn't have the flap bit and was patterned but not floral. It is seriously the most flattering coat I've ever had to wear with trousers and is slightly shaped at the waist (I'm not anywhere near a size 10).

Have just ordered this. A bit over your budget, but I liked the shape and the asymmetric buttons.
