Will the new LK Bennett mac really leak?

I've just bought the absolutely beautiful LK Bennett Showerproof Oscar mac in "ultra blue" .. BUT.. it comes with a warning that the colour may leak onto light-coloured upholstery or garments. ARGH. Can anyone please give me advice asap - i.e. within the refund period?! How likely do you think this leaking would be? Is there anything I can do to prevent it?

Should I keep this? It's not cheap, and I don't want to waste money and spend my time worrying. On the other hand, it's exactly what i want ad I don't want to return it if a leak's unlikely to happen.

LK Bennett Customer Services told me there is a risk that when soaked it could happen... and - not so helpfully - that it wont be as much of a risk after a few dry-cleans -- in other words, when the beautiful colour fades.

A mac that leaks colour when it gets wet? That seems totally ridiculous! You could end up ruining your clothes underneath. I would take it back as it is not fit for its purpose.
