J.Crew's coats - I love their coats - haven't even surfaced. </p> <p>For the Northern hemisphere: Sept and Oct for big stores. Right through to Nov for smaller stores and boutiques. Dec is Resort wear and the best is gone in my opinion.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-do-most-retailers-have-their-full-selection-of-winter-coats-in-now#post-1006331 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 14:14:37 +0000 Thistle 1006331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope Angie chimes in, and I hope they are not all in yet!!!&nbsp; </p> <p>Echo and I live in the same state, and yeah, bathing suits in January when there is 3 feet of snow on the ground is disheartening. AND I am an accountant, so no vacations in winter for me!</p> <p>I really need to buy a new puffer and a fall/spring coat this year. I have been saving up for it, so I am hoping there are more choices coming! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-do-most-retailers-have-their-full-selection-of-winter-coats-in-now#post-1006329 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 14:12:01 +0000 Echo 1006329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have not seen great selections yet either in B&amp;M stores or online. I think many are still waiting for the bulk of winter inventory to arrive. Odd that since retailers have taught people to shop early that they wouldn't have coats by the middle of August. After all, one can purchase swimwear but no boots in WI at the end of January (I know resort lines come out, but there is still snow on the ground!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-do-most-retailers-have-their-full-selection-of-winter-coats-in-now#post-1006317 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 14:01:52 +0000 Susie 1006317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been thinking the same thing! I don't need a coat but would like to have something fun. I'm liking the oversized styles.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-do-most-retailers-have-their-full-selection-of-winter-coats-in-now#post-1006309 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 13:54:21 +0000 christieanne 1006309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Around Labor Day or the few weeks after is coat arrival time in my experience. We are just beginning to see them and same at Macy's (walked their floor yesterday). </p> <p>You might want to start checking out Pinterest or other sites for some ideas though now? A statement coat sounds like it will be great in your area. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-do-most-retailers-have-their-full-selection-of-winter-coats-in-now#post-1006299 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 13:39:44 +0000 Ana 1006299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I'm anxiously watching J. Crew's website for winter coats this year as well. After seven years, my wool coat looks very sad, and the lining has bitten the dust.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-do-most-retailers-have-their-full-selection-of-winter-coats-in-now#post-1006288 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 13:30:40 +0000 Parsley 1006288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not Angie, but no, I don't think they have all their coats yet. I'm betting a lot more will arrive in the next month or so.</p> <p>ETA: I'm thinking about a coat from J Crew this year, but they don't have ANY winter coats in yet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-do-most-retailers-have-their-full-selection-of-winter-coats-in-now#post-1006281 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 13:20:17 +0000 Eliza 1006281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Angie - Just wondering if at this point, Nordies and other stores are likely to have their full inventory of cold weather coats available now, or if additional options will be arriving later. &nbsp;I live in the northeast (USA) and am realizing that I would like a statement coat. &nbsp;I have the coats I need to comfortably manage the climate and all occasions, but want one with a pop of color or special detailing. I will be practicing PPP big time there is no rush or need, just a something I will check out until possibilities emerge.&nbsp;&nbsp;I hope there will be more to choose from later, but wasn't sure how this aspect of the retail cycle works. &nbsp;Thanks for your help.&nbsp; </p>
