This emerald cotton velvet coat has that rich, depthy green that reads luxe without being flashy, with a classic swing shape that moves beautifully as you walk.
The silhouette is an easy A-line, designed to sashay and swish, with a wide collar and statement buttons that keep the front looking clean and considered.
Try it over a neutral knit to bring out the true colour peacock tones. Or keep it modern with a sharp contrasting tee, wide-leg denim, and white sneakers. For evening, layer it over a magenta slip, add gold hoops, and finish with metallic heels.
This shape is great if you like room through the bust, waist, and hips with a coat that drapes in a flattering line. It also works well if you carry more fullness through the middle or hips and prefer outerwear that gives you space and polish.
