Do you think a wool type coat would be best to give a nice hourglass shape

I like fur coats but they tend to be so boxy or bulky
Or is that just me that finds that

Tie-waist wool coat with fur collar?

I saw one in Miss Selfridge this week. And there's a straighter navy one in Monsoon with a fur collar I keep looking at, but it's just a bit too boxy for me, I think. I bet House of Fraser has something similar too.

I thanks for replying

Yes I was thinking perhaps a wo ol coat with fur trim, do you think that would be the most flattering coat style for so me one my size ?

Yes that's a great shape for an hourglass. The Miss Selfridge one was similar but about a quarter of the price.

Oh thanks for the links
Will need to get to the shops and try a few on, will look those two out thanks

I think this will be more sliming n shaping

I'd say I have an hourglass but with a slight post children tummy
I don't know what shape that is
But sometimes certain clothes make me look bigger than I am
