It’s not long, but a great Autumn and Spring coat for your growing collection. You’ll find the silhouette extremely flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/question-about-the-coat-in-angies-sale-post#post-105442 Mon, 09 Nov 2009 14:41:56 +0000 RoseandJoan 105442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Michelle If you took a pashmina and draped it across your shoulders, tying it in a knot at your breastbone you will have created a similar effect to the wing collar. The overall fit of the coat is very similar to a thigh length wrap dressing gown.</p> <p>The coat is very beautiful and I could see you wearing the tin, which is a silver grey.</p> <p>I hope this helps you to visualise the coat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/question-about-the-coat-in-angies-sale-post#post-105298 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 21:48:36 +0000 Anonymous 105298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been tempted by this coat and have seen it in person but have not tried it on. The tin color is almost a silver grey and the oatmeal is a soft light tan, actually lighter than in the link. The fabric looks and feels soft and luxurious. Although the neckline is a deep V, it can easily be filled in with a cozy scarf for warmth.<br /> Because one side of the coat wraps over the other side in front, it may not work too well without a belt, but I'm not sure. It probably could be worn open, but just closed with the "hidden snaps" my look odd without a belt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/question-about-the-coat-in-angies-sale-post#post-105258 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:27:57 +0000 marianna 105258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oatmeal is a light tan, like the color of khakis. Tin is a very light grey. The coat has a big v-neck collar... hard to explain but it forms a V shape with two large panels that sit on the shoulders/chest. It has a low neckline for a coat and leaves the neck exposed. It sort of reminds me of an enlarged blazer/jacket collar. The model is wearing a turtleneck in the picture. The length is mid-thigh on the model.</p> <p>It's a nice coat, but I almost feel like it's not warm enough because of the exposure at the collar. It's a very simple silhouette, with no visible buttons, just a belt tie. I'm not sure if the coat would work without the belt. I suppose it would, but it would be even more simple that way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/question-about-the-coat-in-angies-sale-post#post-105256 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:16:18 +0000 Louise 105256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tin is grey and oatmeal is a dark beige collor starts about bust height at the point where the buttons would be then sweeps out and up so it ends up the width of the shoulders x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/question-about-the-coat-in-angies-sale-post#post-105254 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:11:44 +0000 Michelle 105254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm still looking for a wool coat and was naturally intrigued to hear of an Angie-approved sale option:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3068238/0~2376788~6002242~6007533~6007553?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=6007553&#038;P=1&#038;siteId=fV7QgDWUWe0-sFSrFiFNBknCnVa3wKx_AA" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....nVa3wKx_AA</a><br /> But of course I h ave questions, since the web description was not exactly detailed. :)</p> <p>1. What colours are oatmeal and tin? :)<br /> 2. Where does it fall on the model?<br /> 3. Could someone please describe the collar in more detail? I can't picture a wing collar at all.<br /> 4. Is it the kind of coat that could work if the belt were removed?<br /> 5. An overall description of the silhouette would also be very helpful if possible. Would it look ok on a big hourglass like myself?<br /> 6. Has anyone seen this coat irl, and if so could they tell me about the material?</p> <p>Thanks so much, ladies. </p>
