I saw an article in the NYTimes this weekend that showed layered coats including a peacoat like this over a long cardigan. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-either-of-these-coats-work-for-inverted-triangle#post-1746373 Tue, 01 Nov 2016 11:29:09 +0000 Summer 1746373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think you can go wrong with a peacoat, Shaz.&nbsp; If it's going to be warm enough for you, I would keep.&nbsp; You can always cosy it up further with scarves and hats.<br />The grey coat looks good, too, but I'm with you on the fur collar, especially as it's non-detachable.<br />I hope you find your perfect coat before the cold weather sets in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-either-of-these-coats-work-for-inverted-triangle#post-1746353 Tue, 01 Nov 2016 09:22:02 +0000 Mirjana 1746353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can say navy I like it more but I think gray is for colder weather so as you said you have no one choice would be depending how cold winter is at you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-either-of-these-coats-work-for-inverted-triangle#post-1746341 Tue, 01 Nov 2016 07:47:37 +0000 shaz 1746341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi joy I had ordered the blue one as the reviews were saying how warm it was I can always send it back. I didnt like the fur in the other one and it was not removable.</p> <p>Hi wb you should similar to me and I have the problem of looking like I'm swimming In coats especially long ones. I've never wore either styles before, my last coat was a horrible fitting parka that fell apart. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-either-of-these-coats-work-for-inverted-triangle#post-1746297 Tue, 01 Nov 2016 03:51:38 +0000 WB 1746297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's really hard to say. I'm an invert triangle but I have a very small bust, so it would really be an issue of if it fit across my shoulders and the length of my arms and then it fitting closely enough that I didn't look like I'm swimming in my own clothes. Is this usually the style of coat you wear? I'd say that the longer coat is likely better, especially if you have a larger bust. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-either-of-these-coats-work-for-inverted-triangle#post-1746294 Tue, 01 Nov 2016 03:47:42 +0000 Anonymous 1746294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both. If you need a warm coat, get the warmest. If they feel equal, go with the longer one. I have a navy pea coat similar to the blue one. It is wool and lined but not very warm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-either-of-these-coats-work-for-inverted-triangle#post-1746238 Mon, 31 Oct 2016 21:21:43 +0000 shaz 1746238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Back of the grey one </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-either-of-these-coats-work-for-inverted-triangle#post-1746236 Mon, 31 Oct 2016 21:18:45 +0000 shaz 1746236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These sorry </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/would-either-of-these-coats-work-for-inverted-triangle#post-1746234 Mon, 31 Oct 2016 21:08:15 +0000 shaz 1746234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi trying to find a cheep but cheerful jacket or coat for the cold months I don't currently have one at all. Would either of these do there in the sale and within my tiny budget one is grey the other is navy I'm 5"9 both have good reviews shops over seas so not an option to try before I buy. Thanks for advise </p>
