Coat for v petite UK 4- help!

6 replies

orangadey · 12/11/2023 18:35

I am yet to find a coat that doesn't swamp me or look like I'm wearing a sack.

I'm 5ft 2, a UK 4-6.

I have tried on so many coats and just can't find 'the one'.

I love the long quilted ones but they swamp me- even petite ones I have tried.

I found a lovely khaki green quilted bomber but again the smallest size 6 was too big.

Children's sizes are fine but they aren't very fitting, so don't look great.

Any brands out there who cater for smaller women?

I do have a budget, and it's not a lot to be honest. £150 maybe.

I want it to be warm, water resistant at least shower proof. Hood would be great just in case it rains.

Any help would be amazing as I'm starting to get cold!!

(I have lost 4st and my coats from last year are huge!)

Would something like this in an age 11(ish) work? I’ve been looking for a long, fitted, warm coat for my dd who is about the same height as you and about 40kg, and the sports/outdoor shops do have a few that are more fitted and less boxy.

Try Mango. They offer size 4 I believe.

New look petite
I got a long formal coat and liked the fit and length.

La redoute and filter for teens. Open an account and order a few for comparison. You'll pay for returns but only once? Then close the account.
