Red Princess / dress coat for my teen dd

Please help me find a nice red coat for my 18 year old daughter? She is looking for a princess style dress coat in red wool. She's a ballet dancer and had a very slight frame, she wears size 4 or XS.
I would like to buy this for Christmas and have a budget of £200 / £250 max
Has anyone any clue where I could find one online?
She'd had a tough year with bullying and I would love tom surprise her as she thinks she won't get one as she hasn't seen them in the shops near us.
Thanks!

I found these two:

100% wool from Wolf&Badger - looks gorgeous, legit site (small designers) but £100 above your budget: Princess coat in Rosso

50% wool from Etsy, Chinese producer but starred Etsy seller with lots of positive reviews - can do custom, about £100 below your max budget: Red Princess Coat

Collectif and British Retro often do 50s style coats that should fit the bill. Revival Retro have a red coat too, but the shape isn’t quite a nice imho. Rain sisters do 50s style waterproof coats that look amazing; I can’t afford one right now but they are at the upper end of your budget.

thank you very much for the suggestions! The red Wolf and Badger one is absolutely gorgeous!

I have a Hearts and Roses (cat) coat and it is true to size

If she's petite as well as very slightly built, why not look at children's ranges?

That Wolf & Badger one is so perfect I’d consider getting another relative to pitch in so you can get it for her.

Another Wolf and Badger one, also very expensive and also very lovely!

Just a heads up, Collectif are having a sale on coats this weekend.
