Wednesday coat finding challenge

3 replies

Morning all. I know how some of you like a garment-finding challenge so here’s one for you.

I’m after a puffer / quilted coat, knee length, navy, wide ribbed, ideally matt rather than shiny. Hood but no fur trim. I’m a petite 5’5’’ so need a 6 or XS and nothing oversized. Think cool Japanese style rather than joules (not knocking joules, I have coats from there).

Up to £200, please.

Thanks!

Does anyone have a Uniqlo long down coat and are they any good? I think they look like the sort of style I am after

I've got the long seamless down uniqlo coat, im 5'1" , it sits below my knee but the zip isn't all the way to the bottom so fine for walking. The arms are about right length wise.

I went for xs (6-8 size in most places) and that looks about right, the S would have swamped me. I can get a big jumper underneath.

Is that this one? It looks really nice www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/women/outerwear/coats-jackets?quickView=429461

Their website is astonishingly crap for some reason so it’s hard to scroll through all the photos
