Comfy black smart wool coat

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a comfortable smart coat for my dad’s funeral. I’m funny with clothes and can’t wear anything too uncomfortable.
Thing is i have lost weight too much really unintentionally and I don’t want anything that looks like a sack.
I was looking at the Lorna coat from whistles as it looks so comfy but they don’t have it in my size. I don’t want to spend anymore than roughly £300. I would like something natural fabric like wool but it isn’t essential. TIA

Thankyou for your kind words. I love this coat but not sure about belt but just going to order it anyway

My condolences op. This is a nice, smart not oversized coat. I really rate Disturbia for good value quality clothes. Just ignore the rather gothic styling.

I’m very sorry for your loss @Greekcatmug.

This is a lovely coat. Oversized but you may be able to size down for a more snug fit?

I can't see any belt loops in the photos, so you might be able to just take it off?

This is another classic Jigsaw one, though longer. Can't get the link to change from purple, but it does come in black!

Ah, just noticed the black is only in a Size 6 online. But you can search for it in a shop nearby - or call customer services & if it's in stock in another store you can order it to come in to a store nearby?

Hush do 100% wool costs that are comfortable. Sorry about your loss.

Thankyou all. Much appreciated. I ordered the jigsaw coat with the belt and a Jaeger charcoal grey wrap coat from m&s. Not black but it’s very dark and wearable. They need to arrive and hopefully one of those will be ok.
