Funnel Neck Short Coat

High funnel neck that sits close to the throat - it folds slightly and holds its shape, adding structure at the neckline without needing a scarf underneath. Button fastening runs down the centre front with tone-on-tone buttons that blend into the textured surface rather than interrupt it. Boucle-effect woven fabric gives the coat a tactile, looped surface that reads as cosy without looking oversized or shapeless. Hip-length cut sits just below the waist, making it easy to layer over chunky knits while still defining the silhouette. Patch pockets sit at the hip - functional in depth and flat against the body so they don't add bulk at the sides. A Saturday morning coat, built for the kind of day that starts with a brunch reservation and ends with a browse around the shops. The hip-skimming length works particularly well over wide-leg or straight-leg jeans - exactly as the model wears it here, with barrel-leg denim and flat Mary Jane shoes - keeping the proportions balanced without any effort. The funnel neck means you can leave the house without rummaging for a scarf, and the textured surface gives the coat enough visual interest to carry a simple outfit on its own. Pair it over a fine-knit jumper and straight-leg trousers for a family gathering, or throw it over a midi dress for a baby shower where you want to look put-together but not overdressed. It's the kind of coat that gets worn constantly through the colder months precisely because it asks so little of whatever is underneath it.
