Where can I get one of those velvety knee length coats that were around winter past?

[fartmeistergeneral]

I saw women wearing them here there and everywhere, minty green colour and also dark blue. Kind of velvet/velour. Thought it was a boden kind of thing, but can't find them....

Boden's autumn preview site has one here

ness have a cordy one which is lovely

White Stuff did a nice one too

in fact they still have it in some sizes. Probably not long enough though?

That's a lovely one, bit shorter than I was hoping for, but am sorely tempted to get the 12 even tho the 10 would be better for me,, hmm..!

I love that purple Boden one!!

I think you may be thinking of the ones from White Stuff. I have the green one and love it. Unfortunately it was very popular and I was forever bumping into people wearing the same coat! I bet they do them again this winter.
