Women’s Coat FAQs

What’s the Difference Between a Coat and a Jacket?

The main difference between coats and jackets is in length and insulation. Coats are designed for colder weather, so they’re typically longer and feature thick materials like wool. Jackets are ideal for layering and for milder temperatures. Both serve different style needs, so having one of each is a great way to ensure your capsule wardrobe is ready for every season.

How Can I Wear a Coat in Every Season?

One of the best things about a Joe Browns coat is that they’re suitable for every season. Our lightweight parka coats are perfect for taking you from spring breezes to autumn showers, whilst our dressier options, made from velvet and jacquard, are the perfect occasion coats for any event, from garden parties to bonfire night.

How Do I Style a Women’s Coat for Different Occasions?

The shape and material of your coat is essential when it comes to styling it for different occasions. Tailored velvet and jacquard coats add both polish and warmth to your party outfits, add some faux fur lining for a look that’s full of winter luxury. For casual days, opt for the more relaxed parka jacket. Pair it with jeans and boots for a laidback yet edgy weekend outfit.

How Do I Choose a Coat Length That's Right For My Body?

The secret to looking remarkable in your coat is confidence. That means choosing a coat that fits just right, whatever your body type. Petite frames typically look their best in mid-length or cropped coats that enhance the silhouette rather than overwhelming it, whilst longline or maxi styles beautifully compliment taller women. Many Joe Browns coats and jackets come in petite sizes! Browse the range today to find your perfect fit.
