Picking the perfect jacket

 

I’d like to think that every cloud does have a silver lining….and the shimmering lining to this cold weather is the fact we get to wear lovely jackets and coats. Not convinced?  Well follow our simple guide to finding a coat that suits you and your shape and we’ll change your mind.

 

 

Hourglass – Keep the style fitted to highlight those curves. Single breasted looks best, with one or two buttons & an open neck with slender lapels:

Petite – Choose fitted jackets that flatter your beautiful frame. Wear shorter jackets that end on the hip to create the illusion of longer legs:

Pear – Opt for a belted, fitted jacket with structure on the shoulders to balance you out. To keep the attention to your top half wear wide lapels, interesting collars and eye-catching colours, don’t be afraid to show off:

Rectangle – Make sure the coat is snug and fitted.  Wear a belt tied at your waist or round the back to add some curves. Hip pockets and flared sleeves will also create a great shape making you look hot to trot:

Apple – A straight coat with a simple closure will work best for  all you beautiful apples! Wear the jacket open to contrast against the fabric below, so you don’t look like one block of colour. For our more petite apples, make sure the jacket ends above the knee, for our taller ladies you can go a bit longer:

And remember, fleeces are only to be worn for those who work in sub zero temperatures!!

Happy Shopping:-)
