Cerelle - Hip-Length Notch-Lapel Coat
A hip-length button-front coat that finishes an outfit rather than hiding it.
Most short coats force a choice between looking smart and feeling comfortable. Structured pieces restrict the shoulders, and soft ones lose their shape after a few wears.
Why is this short button-front coat so popular?
- Tailored shoulder: A defined shoulder line keeps the coat looking sharp without stiffness.
- Hip-length cut: A shorter hem works over dresses and trousers without covering the silhouette.
- Clean button front: A simple two-button closure reads as smart in professional settings.
- Neutral palette: Three grounded tones pair with almost anything already in the wardrobe.
- Brushed handle: A soft brushed surface gives the coat a considered, non-synthetic finish.
Ideal for:
Women who need one coat that carries from the office to dinner, anyone building a smart-casual autumn wardrobe around neutral layering pieces, and those who prefer a shorter hem that shows the outfit underneath.
Is the coat lined?
Yes, it carries a smooth lining so it slides easily over knitwear and shirt sleeves.
Will it fit over a thick jumper?
Over a fine or mid-weight knit, comfortably. For chunky knitwear, size up one.
Which colour is most versatile?
Khaki and coffee brown work hardest across a neutral wardrobe. Black is the most formal.
