Wrap Coats

& Other Stories Oversized Belted Wool Coat, £205

A timeless wardrobe classic that you’ll return to every winter, the wrap coat offers freedom of movement while the waist belt neatly accentuates the silhouette. Whether made of wool, cashmere, or a luxurious blend, a wrap coat is an ideal winter option that will keep you warm and elevate your everyday outfits. The roomy shape is suitable for layering chunky knitwear, while the waist belt can be loosely fastened for a more relaxed look or tied for an hourglass silhouette.
