Women's Open Front Stand Collar Overcoat

An overcoat that layers instead of bulking. It hangs open at the front with no fastening to fuss with, and a clean stand collar holds its shape at the neck rather than folding flat. The herringbone weave gives the surface enough texture to read as tailoring from a distance, which is what carries a plain outfit underneath. Grey reads softer and black reads sharper, and both take a scarf or a bag in any colour.

The cut is hip-length and regular through the body, with long sleeves and room for a knit beneath. There are no pockets, an omission that keeps the front line unbroken and stops the hips from widening. Our model is 5'8" and wears a size S. It fits true to size, so order the size you usually take, with sleeves that finish at the wrist rather than short of it.

Grey and black run across sizes XS to 2XL. This is the layer for black denim and a simple top, and it works as well over a midi dress once the evenings cool off. Machine wash it or send it to a professional cleaner, then hang it on a broad hanger so the shoulders and collar keep their line between wears. Hip length keeps it in proportion over trousers and over a dress.
