Short coats

The new women’s short coats and jackets

Coats are essential pieces for every wardrobe; customers can choose from women's short coats and jackets in a vast array of different fabrics and styles from the selection at the online fashion store. For the transitional months of autumn and spring, when the weather is often a little uncertain, lightweight short coats are ideal as they provide an elegant extra layer with little weight. A chic trench raincoat in shimmering microfibre makes a timelessly elegant outfit when worn with dark denim jeans and accessorised with a pretty scarf. Coats with hoods are a functional choice, ideal for a quick dash to the shops or for a country walk. Quilted short coats are a perennial favourite and come in different lengths to suit all figures. Reversible quilted jackets are very versatile: with one side in a distinctive print and the other in a solid colour, they can be used to create many different looks. Waist-length jackets are perfect for active wear as they offer freedom of movement while knee-length coats and jackets provide more coverage and are flattering to women of all sizes. For the coming season, many top labels propose beautiful capes and ponchos in pure milled wool. They are a very feminine, flowing design that emphasises a woman’s natural elegance. Sleeveless coats and jackets continue to grow in popularity; they are useful for layering on cool days and also give the illusion of a taller, slimmer figure.

Women’s short coats for every occasion

Coats are a very important item for most women; they provide protection from the weather while looking fashionable and elegant. By choosing a selection of timelessly stylish short coats, women will create a good first impression wherever they go. For example, a quilted hip length coat in silky, high-quality navy microfibre can be paired with denim and a chunky sweater for a winter weekend but it can also be dressed up for business wear by wearing with wool trousers and high heeled ankle boots. Many women prefer to buy coats in neutral shades such as navy, camel and black, as these can be worn with many different garments, but sometimes it is fun to let the coat make a statement. A coat or jacket in a vibrant floral print is a very eye-catching look at any time of the year and can be worn with slim, dark jeans in winter and white trousers in the summer. For the coldest time of year, down coats are the best way to keep warm. Full figured women are sometimes wary of padded coats as they can look a little bulky, but this can be avoided by choosing a style with the stitched detail in strong vertical or diagonal lines to give a flattering fit. Buying a coat from the online fashion shop ensures the widest possible choice from the extensive selection of women’s short coats and jackets for all occasions.

How to choose women’s short coats

By selecting a beautiful coat that suits their figure type, women will always look elegant and feminine. Trench coats are a classic style that look good on most people: the belt can be tied to emphasise a trim waist or knotted casually at the back to give a looser fit. Trenches come in classic beige and sand as well as many other fashion colours such as pink and green. Biker jackets look laid back and casual when worn with jeans, but also add an edgy style to a pretty dress or blouse. They are sometimes embellished with embroidery and lace for a very feminine appeal. Jackets in softest leather are investment pieces that will enhance the wardrobe for many years to come. While leather coats are available in this season’s fashionable shades of berry, teal and green, a neutral colour will go with most other items in the wardrobe. Parkas, with their fur-trimmed hoods, are still very trendy and are a go-to choice for many women. This warm and cosy style usually falls to mid-thigh, which is a flattering length that makes the legs appear longer while the drawstring waist helps to avoid a bulky appearance. With so many styles to choose from, it can be difficult to decide: customers can buy womens short coats from the online fashion website and try them at home in comfort.
