Wtf, Cos? W. T. F.

[OrangeIsTheNewRed]

A mock collar. For when a scarf just won't do. Really?

for crafty folk i have knitting patterns vintage ones that are like that to make, can be good when you have a low necked coat or top

I quite like it!

It's like these things. We used to wear them to school in the 1960s.

It's just a variation on a snood surely? I actually quite like it.

I really want one now

Rainbowshit yes bit like a snood but covers more below the neck whereas a snood is like just round the neck
AlwaysInAFlap yes that is like the one I have a pattern for you can knit most patterns i have with it in are 1950s or 1960s

Oh takes me right back to the 70s when my granny used to knit me balaclavas, mock polo neck jumpers, hats with holes for my bunches. It was a good look

Ooo super, a nylon head foreskin. Just what I've been after.

I quite like it, especially the orange! Looks great with that pale coat.

Hats with holes for bunches - cool!

I have one in navy from the sale a couple of years ago, very handy item!

I bloody love Cos, most of the clothes are pretty normal when you go into the actual shop.

A hood off a puffer jacket does not go with a wool coat! That thing is minging and giving me serious handmaid vibes. I would prefer to be a bit cold but look good!

We were in Finland in October and these (and variations) were in every single clothes shop. Clearly a big thing thete.

I also like it, it makes a smart coat much warmer and also if you get a bit overheated you can shove it in your bag.

I love this, especially in orange. Actually nearly bought it when it first appeared on the website, dithered over the price and it sold out. Glad it’s back in stock, thanks for posting OP.

This!

What is the point of it, to keep your head dry when it rains as well? If you're wearing a wool coat then the rest of the coat will just get wet anyway?

Wear a normal scarf or knitted snood with a wool coat and carry an umbrella. Or wear an actual coat (preferably waterproof) with a hood?

I think it looks very muddly- or very try-hard- with a wool coat.

I never understood the love for Cos on here, shapeless clothes for shapeless people.

@VodselForDinner they have those in primark if you wanted something a lot cheaper

Actually, the models are shapeless. Cos clothing looks much better on those with a shape.

What's a shapeless person? I'm tall and slim. Scandi brands fit me well. Love COS.

Shapeless meaning what exactly? I’m size 10, curvy and short and shop primarily from Cos. Obviously I don’t suit all styles of their clothes but that is the case for every other shop I enter too.

Thanks @RedHot22!!!!
Good Gravy!!! A when a hoody and a balaclava meet and fall madly in love they get married and eventually this happens!

Bloody good idea! I love it.

Bit baffled by the cashmere one though. Is it to go under a crew neck?

Just thinking a handy person could craft one from an old hooded coat, probably even a kids one. I'll keep an eye out in the charity shop for coats with good hoods 😊

I'm sure COS designs their clothes with the aftermath of a nuclear apocalypse in mind.
