FAQs

What material is the coat made from?

The coat is made from a luxurious brushed wool blend fabric, designed for warmth and a refined appearance.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to standard sizing charts for women's apparel. The coat has a regular fit designed for comfortable layering.

Can this coat be worn in heavy rain?

While the wool blend offers warmth, it is not waterproof. For heavy rain, a water-resistant outerwear option would be more suitable.

Is the belt detachable?

The description mentions a 'belted waist detail', implying the belt is an integral part of the coat's design and likely intended to be worn with it, though it may be removable for cleaning or alternative styling.

What kind of outfits does this coat pair well with?

It pairs well with a variety of outfits, including casual looks like denim and knitwear, as well as smarter ensembles like midi dresses or tailored trousers. Its minimalist design makes it highly versatile.

What is the length of the coat?

The coat features a maxi length, providing generous coverage and warmth.

How should I care for the wool blend fabric?

It is recommended to dry clean the coat only. Iron on a cool setting on the reverse side if needed.

Troubleshooting

Coat appears creased after storage.

Hang the coat in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Professional steaming is also an option.

Fabric looks dull or matted.

This can sometimes occur with wool blends. Gentle brushing with a soft wool brush in the direction of the nap may help restore texture. Avoid excessive rubbing.

Belt is difficult to adjust.

Ensure the belt is not twisted and that the buckle is correctly threaded. If the fabric is stiff, gentle manipulation may ease adjustment.
