OK, it's (another) coat BUT for someone tall and curvy

I am 6'1", in my 40s, a size 20-22 and looking for a good quality, waterproof coat. I'd like it to have space under it for a chunky jumper. Nothing in tailored wool, not puffy, and not a barbour. I have looked at Long Tall Sally and Yours, but I find that the quality is just...terrible and overpriced. (Sorry, LTS, you've been my go-to since I was 18, but your products have got worse and worse!)

Any other tall ladies out there who can point me in the right direction? I loved those yellow oilskin-style coats that everyone had five years ago, but I could never find in my size. Price-wise, I would top out at £350. Am I asked for the moon on a stick?

Seasalt do waterproof coats in tall, it might be worth trying there, they have the measurements on the website and usually plenty of reviews to get an idea of fit.

Yes, try Seasalt, a good rummage in TKMax, maybe Tog24 (sometimes the mens ones are ok) or Berghaus mens.
