Wool overcoat has made its mark again this season. As the chill weather creeps and stormy showers pours in, what better than to invest on a good quality overcoat. Choice can be from 100% wool or wool-mix (wool-polyester-viscose or wool-cotton). There are even single- or double-breasted. I would rather opt for single-breasted; simple, classic and unpretentious. (Double-breasted is too military to me!). Also the fabric should be plain, without any stripe nor patterned.
Any highstreet stores offer good wool overcoat? You bet. My fav varieties are the one from Burton and Topman. Sharp design, simple cut, monochrome with the hue of grey and black. Classic. (They look quite similar in design , due to the companies' sharing the same boss - Sir Phillip Green!).
Me thinking of gettting one, and cheaper....coz last year I stuck with the belted one from Burton. Very military, and the heavy cotton fabric seems to attract lint! Nevertheless in recent Shortlist, belted coat is in! Hmm....
