I've got a Hobbs velvet coat - much nicer !

they are evrywhere

i can vouch for the fact that batters looks marvellous in her coat and i haven't seen many of them about.

i have not seen that anywhere in london. it must be a provincial fashion.

(actually they are rather nice but wouldn't suit me so i am just being jealous)

haha! when i looked at the link i saw they had some blue ones left... i was soo tempted but thought it would be a bit weird and creepy

I soooo nearly bought one. Haven't seen another one here though.

Oooh I like that but there are none in my size

Here in a very "Essex" part of Essex, I can honestly say that I have never ever seen a Boden coat. Never knowingly seen anything from Boden, except one order I misguidely made myself and returned

Any one of their prints would be absolutely unique around here.

at "it must be a provincial fashion"

Could I have two ' backs'? I like the back, not the front

i have an M&S velvet coat from about 6 years ago
it is fab, it still looks nearly new, it's waterproof AND it doesn't have a seam in a weirdy place that gives one a matronly bozoom
it kicks the arse of the Boden one

that's not really much use to the rest of you though is it...

You think not. But that reference to the Boden coat giving you a matronly bosom where none exists made me check out the link twice.

there was a previous thread about this coat where much reference was made to the seam and how unflattering it was

yes the back is odd

so is the front

I sent mine straight back

It was comical in its unflatteringness

i like it but i know it would look shit and untidy on me

all i can say is..Jarvis

Big spotty lining suitable for the under 5's only
