<-h2->Petite coats and jackets<-h2-> Coats and jackets cut for petite frames are in our collection because a shorter body needs the shoulder, sleeve and hem redrawn, not simply taken up. Longline wool-look coats, trenches, teddy styles, leather-look jackets and quilted shapes come in camel, black, cream and deeper colour, sized for 5ft 3in and under. The hem is where most coats go wrong, finishing below the calf and cutting the leg in half. Here it lands where it should. A longline coat over a knitted midi dress with a flat boot is winter sorted in one move, and it takes a leather-look crossbody and gold hoops straight out to dinner afterwards. A trench over a straight jean, a cotton shirt and a loafer handles the in-between weeks. Teddy and quilted styles want something slim underneath, so a fine knit rather than a chunky one, with the jean tucked into a boot. Separates matter here too, because a jacket that works over tailoring and over denim earns its hanger. Every month of the year is covered, in the right proportions.
