• Maxi length cut that sweeps almost to the ankle, giving the coat a dramatic, floor-grazing silhouette that commands attention without trying too hard.
• Oversized, deeply lapelled collar sits wide across the shoulders and folds back generously - the kind of collar you can pull up against the cold or wear open for full effect.
• The faux fur has a varied, multi-directional pile that mimics the look of vintage estate-sale finds, with a richness in texture that reads as considered rather than costume-like.
• Voluminous sleeves with a slightly dropped shoulder mean the coat hangs off the body rather than clinging to it - it moves as one piece, swaying with every step.
• An open-front style that drapes naturally rather than wrapping closed, making it easy to throw on and off while keeping the overall shape relaxed and unstructured.

A coat like this does its best work on a night out in the city - thrown over an outfit as the final word before you walk out the door. The length alone turns a simple look into something considered, and because the silhouette is so deliberately oversized, it works just as well over wide-leg trousers (as styled here) as it does over a slip dress or straight-leg jeans. For a casual daytime look, pair it with a fitted white tee, wide-leg black trousers and pointed boots to mirror the model's styling. Come evening, swap the basics for something more dressed up underneath and let the coat carry the whole look. The vintage-inspired pile texture means it never reads as costume - it reads as a statement piece that you've had for years and know exactly how to wear.
