The holy grail of tailoring is a coat that will last the test of time, keep us warm and still look stylish on our deathbed.
Now, here it comes!! We know it is a classic that will always be en vogue, but for the AW 09/10 fashion designers have revisited the Camel Coat in different ways.
The Louis Vuitton version with the broad over-sized shoulders ( matched with some pink bunny ears!!),
Double-breasted for DKNY
Long for DRIES VON NOTEN
Minimal for JIL SANDERS
Belted for DONNA KARAN
Zipped for NARCISO RODRIGUEZ,
Colour contrast for DEREK LAM
So this Autumn wrap yourself in Chloe
Knot tight in MAX MARA
It is now time to make your pick and invest in a “ safe” buy for your Autumn/ Winter 09/10 wardrobe… you can’ t go wrong with a traditional standby like a CAMEL COAT.

Trying to find a long camel coat is like trying to find a snowflake in hell. Shop assistants look at you as if you are asking for their first born……Any ideas where to find one? Size 18 long, as I am quite tall, knee length look bad.
Dont know whee you live, but go out now for SS10 try MaxMara if go early have few size 18’s. Also try Harrods huge department for size 18 and over lots nice clothes. Marina Rinaldi another good bet.
