Help me find this coat please!

So I was in the airport last week and saw the most beautiful jacket. I couldn't catch up to the woman to ask her where it was from and can't find it online. It was a very brightly coloured jacket, maybe tweed. The colours were possibly pink, orange, green... that kind of thing. And I feel like there was some gold trim in there. It was waist length and with no lapels. I've attached a file of a coat that is a very similar style but not the same pattern or colour. Please help!

Only red & black but has the ropey effect.

Erm, CaMe in the nicest possible way, you do realise you've posted a €2000 coat (when OP is on a much lower budget) that sounds nothing like the one OP describes and resembles this fella. Good effort 🤣

Oh bloody hell. Now I want a look-a-like tweedy Chanel blazer Angry

[quote SeaRabbit]If you are able to sew, have a go at getting some Linton Tweed fabric and making yourself one:

Haha bizarrely enough I joined this thread because I am actually in the process of making a jacket like the one OP describes (although in a slightly different colour).

The pattern I'm using is vogue 7975 in view B

Zara always have a few Chanel style blazers on the go.

Thank you everyone for looking and replying! You guys are awesome. I do think it was a high fashion (expensive!) coat but I now have a beautiful list of alternatives to consider:)

I learned a long time ago to wear clothes that I like, not what other people think I should like. HTH @pheasantlysurprised

The resemblance is uncanny!

A boucle is the perfect autumn coat IMHO. I'm waiting until I see the perfect one. Hoping its not at an airport too!
