Sorry, another waterproof coat thread! I need to replace my current autumn/winter waterproof and looking for a parka type style as opposed to a hiking type jacket.
I’m short with short arms but big on top - size 16 due to GG cup boobs - and 12/14 elsewhere.
I’m struggling to find a coat that fastens over my chest without squashing that I can wear a jumper under but that doesn’t swamp me! I have a tendency to look like a child in an oversized school coat if I’m not careful!
So I’m looking for something that will fit my chest in, but not too oversized. I like the look of Didriksons, but there’s so many styles I’m not sure which would be best. Or if that brand would suit, as I have an old one ( size 40 ) that I can no longer fasten.
I bought an insulated long coat from Finisterre last year that was very generously sized ( ended up with a size 12!) but I’m not sure if the waterproofs would be the same as they tend to be more fitted.
Any tips greatly appreciated!
