Anyone got this Boden coat (quick, before it goes!)?

Apparently Boden now have an Australian website - who knew?!

Having never seen any of their clothes IRL, I would love quick opinions on this coat. Anyone got it/seen it? It's a great price on clearance. I'm looking at the Charcoal in a size 12. Thanks in advance!

I've got it and love it, it's not heavy enough for v cold weather and you need a scarf to cover the neck but it is very soft and hangs well.

Oh goody - that sounds perfect, then, as I'm in Western Australia where we barely get a frost! Thanks piechuck

And 'soft' and 'hangs well' were exactly what I was after. I have two perfectly good coats but they're both too structured, and look a bit dated now.

Anyone else...?

I've just bought it in the insanely pink colour and adore it. Sooo soft. Tiny bit short on the sleeves but not enough to be a problem.

I love this, but does it not look like a dressing gown when it's on?

KoalaDownUnder · 04/05/2015 13:07

I was a bit worried about that too, afink. People who have it - does it have buttons?

One button on the inside to hold it together.

I think it looks very smart on. But it FEELS like a dressing gown!

Like it. Think I'm going to brave the pink one :-)

I loved it and bought it. Had to send it back. It looked like a dressing gown. Sad

KoalaDownUnder · 05/05/2015 20:44

Oh bugger, Primrose - I've already ordered it! I was sort of hoping the lapels would stop it looking dressing-gowny...

The charcoal one looks EXACTLY like DH's dressing gown.
