Cocoon Style Coat for a Short Person?

I love the idea of a big, soft, snuggly cocoon style coat. Unfortunately the reality is a bit 'playing dress up in her mothers clothes again' on my 5' frame.

I tried this one from Gerard Darel but it was enormous! This one from Jaeger was similarly huge.

These tend to be my go to shops, along with Hobbs but they seem to have gone a bit odd again this winter Hmm

Are there any shops that sell big snuggly coats that won't make me look like I've raided the dressing up box, or is this a trend for the tall only?

I'd add it's not the width that I'm struggling with (paired with skinny jeans or a short skirt and thick tights I don't think it'd be an issue), it's just that they're all so bloody long and I look totally swamped. The Gerard Darel one was mid calf on me!
