Coat that stands out from the rest.

Beautiful coat, very happy with my purchase once I got my size right, coat is very generous so I downsized like many others. Colours are striking, lovely detail, extremely lightweight. I look forward to many years of wear from a quality garment.

No, I don't recommend this
I loved this coat the moment I saw it, I loved the colour, material and the check design and I ordered a size 12 I'm a slim 5.7 and thought it would suit me. I was so disappointed when I tried it on as the large pleat at the back just gaped apart and it made me look huge. Sorry M&S but I returned it straight away. I thought it was also a little overpriced but thought I would be getting something that was just that little bit different.

Shame about the back pleat

No, I don't recommend this
I agree with other reviewers that this is a swing coat rather than a cocoon shape. The material is fab and so are the colours, it is not meant to have a skimpy fit but is supposed to be luxurious and enveloping. However the pleat at the back is simply not deep enough - it opens out instead of hanging nicely. It is for this reason that I returned the coat .

Yes, I recommend this
Having read previous reviews I was a little cautious before purchasing this lovely coat. However, on receiving the 20% on-line promotion I decided to go for it. I am not disappointed. The coat was beautifully packaged and is top of the range from material, finishing, matching the material checks, overstitching, etc. I could go on, and on. As the coat has raglan sleeves I ordered a size smaller and it's a perfect fit. I look forward very much to wearing this for the next few winters. My grateful thanks to the British (Manchester) manufacturer - how lovely to find a truly UK garment of such high quality. Well done M&S - more of the same please.

Just collected my Christmas Present today. Great colour. I was worried about the fit though I did read the reviews and brought a size small than I would normally buy - glad I did great fit and I feel good in it. ... took advantage of the 20% off the other day so a great bargain too.

No, I don't recommend this
I have to agree with the other reviews about this coat. The fabric and the colours are stunning, but oh - the fit! Ghastly. I ordered my usual 10, it swamped me, but I loved the fabric so much I exchanged it for an 8. It still swamped me. The pleat at the back stuck out and the overall effect added about four stones to my weight! In addition the sleeves were far too short (above my wrists) on both coats. Gutted.

I ordered online and it took me a few days to decide whether or not to keep this coat - it is so striking that I am not sure whether I'll be comfortable wearing it every day. In the end I couldn't bear to send it back! More of a swing coat than a cocoon though.

More of a tent than a coat
Average rating: 1 out of 5
JeanPin November 2013
No, I don't recommend this
Eyecatching fabric, fabulous hot pink lining and well made. But oh, the fit! You could have got two of me into my standard size 10. It swamped me. Don't know how the neat fit was achieved in the picture - lots of pins, I expect, to hold back the excess fabric. And the collar when buttoned up reached my nose, rather than jawline as depicted. Sooo disappointing Returning the coat. Might try a size 8 when in stock, but not hopeful that it will be that much better. By the way, M&S, it can't be both a cocoon style and a swing style - they are totally different shapes.

No, I don't recommend this
I had such high hopes for this coat. I ordered online as I couldn't find it in my local store, and loved it from the photos. I was massively disappointed when I received it. The quality is great, the materials are fab, and the colour was perfect, but the fit was completely wrong for me. It was more a swing coat than what I would think of as a cocoon. The fit was perfect around the neck and arms, but the body was HUGE. I felt like I was in one of those diet before / after shots where I was wearing an item that was now far too big for me. I am a size 16, and I think this shape probably works best on slimmer girls. This item is being returned and my quest for my perfect coat continues.

No, I don't recommend this
I sent for this coat because of the style and bright colours for winter and being British made, how ever when I tried it on I was very disappointed it did not look like it had cost almost £300 no wow factor. So I will be returning it to M @ S for that reason and hope that they will produce coats at this price that look expensive and exclusive.
