Does it come with the belt yes or no?
The title and description says belted but is it the cut or the belt comes with it?
Also the model is 5'9 and wears size 8 - I'm 5'5 and size 8 sometimes 10, so I'm assuming I'm 8 for this too but then would it be too long, what do you think?
And lastly, the colour - I'm not so sure - I wish they had navy or black

The belt might not be very nice.

Ignore me
My screen zoom was too big and I missed the photo of the coat itself with the belt - now that I made it smaller I can see better.

All but one pic includes the same belt and it says belted in the description- I do understand why you are unsure but I think it must come wirh it.

The belt might not be very nice.

I actually don't like wearing belts but I like the belt effect in clothing to accentuate my waist - when the cut pinches at the waist, that is what I need.

For £300, you could get a much better quality coat. KM has gone to the dogs in recent years.

It chops her up and she’s pretty tall, I think it might look ever more ‘sectiony’ on a more petite woman.

ErrolTheDragon · 19/01/2024 15:35

It looks a lot better in the photos with no belt than with that ridiculous wide one.

KirstenBlest · 19/01/2024 15:36

It's not that nice a coat. Belt is probably faux leather.

strugglemama · 19/01/2024 15:37

For what it's worth, I think it's a nice coat with a modern cut that will go with most outfits. It's long enough to wear with a skirt or dress (of any length) and not too tight so you can fit a (thin) jumper under it. Easy to dress up or down with different shoes/bag/belt. Also 70% wool and some polyamide for durability. Looks good!

I like it. I love the colour. I’m sure it comes with the belt, but I’m not so sure if I like the belt.

Karen Millen (and Coast ) are not the quality brands they used to be .
They are owned by BooHoo now and from my experience you are paying a premium price for fast fashion type products now .

Coolblur · 19/01/2024 16:40

I think it comes with the belt, but I'd wear it without as I don't much like it
