What do you think of this coat for me?

I am looking for a long coat in a camel color for midis and to wear layers underneath. I ordered this. Do you think the collar is too big or can I carry it because of a somewhat dramatic style persona at times.

It's very striking and gorgeous, greenglove! To me it has a Japanese aesthetic going on.

Are you tall? Because with this type of dramatic visual, as usual it seems like one of these things you'd pull off a lot better with some height. Other than that, I'd probably want to see a pic of you wearing it.

5'6" is tall enough! Especially when thin Sounds like you're Angie's height and build and she wears everything well!

At your height it might work

I love it, Jean. I think you'll look spectacular in it.

Here's a similar one that Mamapicklejuice was considering (and maybe bought?) She is 5'6" too, I believe:

Jean, it's worth a try for sure. I do worry that it looks a little like a bath robe. But we'll never know until we try!

I see bath robe as well, but maybe it will look more structured on. If there's no risk, then I think the color is really nice.
