Has anyone who is around 5'3" got a long puffa type coat that doesn't swamp them?

I have some vouchers for John Lewis & would like to buy a warm longish padded coat but am not sure what to go for as I am quite short 5'3" & don't want to be swamped. There are a few available from Mango, Warehouse & Oasis but it's hard to judge the length.
I will have to order online as don't live near a JL.
Can anyone of similar height recommend me a coat like this?

I'm 5ft4 and have a lovely down coat from phase eight that's padded. It's knee length and has a belt to define the waist. It's v warm and has a fake fur trimmed hood, so nice and cosy but stylish too!

Aigle one. Am 5'3 (well, almost!). Love it. Has a belt which gives it a nice bit of shape round the waist and it's not too long.

I've got one from M&S with a belt. I definitely don't look svelte in it, but it's not dreadful and it is lovely and warm!

It's like this one but in khaki.

I've just bought this in a 10, it's lovely and very flattering.
