Navy coat

WatteauYouTalkingAbout · 04/10/2022 07:44

I am trying to find a long navy wool coat - NOT a wrap/belted style. I already have a wrap coat and it feels like I’m wearing a dressing gown.
I like this Jigsaw one but they don’t have it in navy. Can anyone help?

This Jigsaw one comes in navy I found this at John Lewis & Partners. What do you think?  https://www.johnlewis.com/jigsaw-relaxed-wool-city-tailored-coat/navy/p109463574?tmad=c&tmcampid=7&sshare=jlappioss_Y29tLmFwcGxlLlVJS2l0LmFjdGl2aXR5LkNvcHlUb1Bhc3RlYm9hcmQ=

L k Bennett I found this at John Lewis & Partners. What do you think?  https://www.johnlewis.com/l-k-bennett-keefe-wool-blend-coat/navy/p6350938?tmad=c&tmcampid=7&sshare=jlappioss_Y29tLmFwcGxlLlVJS2l0LmFjdGl2aXR5LkNvcHlUb1Bhc3RlYm9hcmQ=

Crew clothing I found this at John Lewis & Partners. What do you think?  https://www.johnlewis.com/crew-clothing-sky-crombie-coat-navy/p109288265?tmad=c&tmcampid=7&sshare=jlappioss_Y29tLmFwcGxlLlVJS2l0LmFjdGl2aXR5LkNvcHlUb1Bhc3RlYm9hcmQ=

I'd also have a look at Reiss, Hugo Boss or Maxmara

Thank you but I don’t really like any of thise, sorry!
The Jigsaw one isn’t the same - it’s shorter and looks thinner. The LK Bennett one I don’t like the big button. Crew one too short.
move looked at Reiss and all the linen ones are belted. I’m not sure I have a Maxmara budget but will look anyway! Thanks again.

Jaeger in M&S have 2.
Both are wonderful, especially the one with (I think) cashmere that I keep going past just to stroke. I have genuinely never felt something so beautiful in my life. It's about £300. It is slightly shorter though.
Last winter Monsoon (Next website iirc) had quite a few but I can't remember the exact styles.
I was looking last winter and never got one, but my heart is now on the Jaeger one. <sigh>

This one has chunky collar but looks very warm

Sorry for the typos!
Thanks for posting the other options but they’re all a bit too short. I want a proper long navy coat. I think I’ll have to get saving for Maxmara!

Tempted by the Kooples one but I don’t like the collar - it feels like it will date the style. For that price I would want something classic.

P.S. that last link Is for the black but you can change the colour to Navy (i tried linking the Navy one but didn't manage)

spinningpenguin · 04/10/2022 10:03

Unfortunately i couldn't sée any Maxmara in navy this season that has a more classic look with clean lines 😬

Sandro
The Curated

Double breasted though, are you specifically looking for single breasted like the Jigsaw one?

Thank you - these are so close but not quite right.
La Redoute ones are too short or not good enough quality fabric. The Curated one is lovely but I don’t want double faced, I’d prefer it to be lined.
And I don’t like the bouclé texture of the Sandro one. I had no idea I am so fussy! Will keep looking.

Haha not a bad thing to be fussy @WatteauYouTalkingAbout! It’s a bit of an investment to get a coat so you want to get it right. I’d definitely look at Max Mara as they do a lot of classic styles, even if they don’t have navy options at the mo. Although I’ve got a coat from Max Mara Weekend and it’s double faced and think a lot of them are. Have a look at Outnet and Net a Porter as well as they tend to have a lot of classic styles.
