I’m looking for a non-tailored coat

The cold weather is in full bloom and I happen to be looking for a coat.  Now that magazines are introducing their Spring collection and many people are already buying them I’d rather think of a non-tailored coat.  I’m a little bit tired of tailored coats or tailored clothes in general for that matter, they seem to me a little passe right now and more office-like than I prefer.  Frankly, I don’t want to look like I just came out of work.  Besides, coats that are not too fitted and tight seem to be a lot more modern and comfortable but still classic.

Giovanna Battaglia seems to agree with me, above and below.

I found these very unique coats at very reasonable prices.  Enjoy! Clockwise from top left, at Tenoversix,  a winter white coat that would look great with a thin belt at La Garconne, bottom right at The Remedi and last one at Marni.

    I bought a grey one that's a little bit like the first coat, it suits my lifestyle better than my other fancy coats, which really, I barely wear nowadays.

    I so agree with you, Julie. I would love a more effortless-looking coat. When I saw the white coat, this was exactly what I thought: that I would wear it with a very thin belt (I have too in fact, an emerald green and a greige one that would go beautifully with it). 🙂

    My favorite coat I bought at Saks from Max Mara and its totally unstructured with a fun oversized shawl color, because its not fitted, its actually flattering (go figure) and I love it, if I could find it in gray and camel I would buy both!
    Good luck in your search!

    I love both of the greys!! I layer all of the time, so unstructured is perfect for me!!

    Happy New Years and All the Best in 2012!

    DARLING COATS. I have one like the white one that I will start wearing…a little too warm here in California right now though.
    Happy New Year!
