I have just ordered one from Mint Velvet which I tried on and liked and then regretted not buying. I'm just not 100% sure they suit me being kind of boxy fit/short as I'm only short myself. Anyone seen any others which are nice?

Oh that River Island one is lovely, and the Oliver Bonas, great thread!

Oh good timing I've been wanting to get the free people dolman quilted jacket for a couple of years and never justified almost £200 for it (it's just nice but not nice nice) and tried it on today after finding a shop. Still want it! And now I know what size I am. Luckily for my wallet they didn't have the colour I want 😂

I am short and blessed with a comedy bust.
They look like Nan's bed jacket on me.

I’m a bit worried it does on me too 🙈

The Mint Velvet one is beautiful, and good value given the beauty and quality. Please report back!

JW13 · 11/04/2024 06:39

I almost got the mint velvet one but switched to this Zara one instead and have already worn it loads:

I've got one from Monsoon from last year but I always think it looks funny on me and I can't seem to style it. Something about the neckline. This one: https://www.monsoon.co.uk/padded-rose-print-jacket-in-lenzing-ecovero-5402370158.html

Same for me. The round neck line just doesn't do anything for me.

CormorantStrikesBack · 11/04/2024 07:34

I've just ordered the zara one as well. My Mint Velvet one is still in the bag with tags on so if I prefer the zara one I'll send the MV one back. I do like it, it's just expensive for something I'm not sure I'd wear loads.

I've got 3 or 4 from Monsoon over the years - look great with a plain white tee and jeans. They seem to have 2 or 3 every season, suggest checking Ebay.

I have a fab monsoon one, it's one of my favorite items of clothing.

Riverlee · 11/04/2024 08:25

Monsoon was my first thought as well for these types of jackets.

This is the monsoon one i have, it's a few years old so doubt it'll be in stock anywhere. I love it! It can be worn inside like a house coat in winter or as outerwear in warmer months so I get a surprising amount of wear from it

I do like this from Oliver Bonas. Not sure how useful it is with the current weather

Thanks, I have just ordered this

DrJoanAllenby · 11/04/2024 10:29

We used to call them Kantha Jackets.

Look up vintage ones. There are some fab cotton ones from India.

I have so many of these, but I thought they looked dated.

One of the surprising benefits of getting older is that when things come back in fashion you may already have them from the last time around!

Lentilweaver · 11/04/2024 10:35

Yes, I have a lot of boho Indian clothes over a decade old; should dig them out! I don;t have the rock hard abs I used to, though.

Gensola · 11/04/2024 10:35

Has anyone seen a plain one / block colour?

ilovesushi · 11/04/2024 11:26

@JW13 how did you find the Zara sizing? I'm a 12 and tall but worried the M might be too small.

JW13 · 11/04/2024 11:28

@ilovesushi it comes up quite big. I'm tall and a 12 too and got a medium and I could get something thick underneath if I needed to. Would definitely say get the M.
