Meghan's white coat

Not seen today’s paper but it sounds like a coat I have seen her wear on previous occasions. Thought it looked ok on her, I could never wear that style. Would look like a sack of spuds!

I've got a (chocolate brown) wrap-around coat with tie belt like that from a few years ago. It's very cosy and it does feel as if I'm wearing a dressing gown

Poor Meghan.

Would anybody really start a thread about your chocolate brown wraparound coat grannyknot or indeed anybody’s ?

PoorMeghan - not, I expect, that she gives a jot!

I'd say the OP is more of a comment on fashion or style... it just happened to be Meghan wearing it.

Actually just bought a wrap around grey coat in the sales, with a fur collar. I am slim so it doesn't look bulky and I love it. Its nice material so doesn't feel like a dressing gown.

But would anybody notice or think it worthy of comment grannyknot

We once attended a function, where formal dress was required.
My friend always looked so elegant and as usual she looked fabulous wearing a long, black, velvet evening coat over her evening dress.
It turned out it was a dressing gown, but you would never have known.

I thought it was a very nice coat and she looked good in it. Wish I could wear a winter white coat - I'm too messy.

I may be wrong but wasn't the belted coat a favourite Marilyn Monroe?

I thought it looked great.

I'd love to be able to wear a white coat, belted or not. But me, in white? Wouldn't get as far as the front door before I'd have spilt something on it.

Oh leave the poor woman alone she ll never do anything right for these Union Jack waving brigade she’s a ‘furriner’ who dared to fall in love with a prominent Brit, poor lass I hope she’s got a very thick skin ??
She’s already worn a ‘dreadful’ engagement dress a ‘terrible’ hat, was being clingy and over the top in pictures, now a wrap around ‘ dressing gown’ I d give up if I was her Harry, take her somewhere more welcoming and live happily ever after xx

maw, I commented because it was in my morning paper, not because of who was wearing it, as I intimated very clearly. Most people I wouldn't have recognised anyway but MM is famous enough even for me to know who she is when I see a picture of her because of her connection to Harry. Besides, he was in the picture too. I wouldn't have known her from Eve until their engagement.

This thread is about a COAT

That is, it was. The nit pickers and fault finders and negative dudes have and no doubt will continue to make it about something else.

Is it possible someone can put a pic up please, I'd love to see the coat, being a bit of a fashionista, well in my dreams that is!! Thank you

I know the one you mean Baggs, I didn't like it either, particularly the large flappy looking collar. I really liked the navy blue, possibly black coat, she wore when she did her first publc engagement with Harry. Mainly because I have one that's similar

No doubt cheaper than hers though!

Ah well, with all that is going on in the world, how refreshing to be able to spend time and column inches on a coat

Alternatively, how depressing that members can't even discuss a ruddy coat without being jumped on.

Here you are, NLS

We have had recent thread on a hat
Didn't we have a longish thread not so long ago about a dress ?

Baggs thanks very much for pic, I think it suits her, I know this thread is not actually about her but about the coat, I would love to wear a coat like this, unfortunately I am still carrying copious amounts of mincepies, chocolates etc around my backside!!

It totes looks like a dressing gown in that pic.

I'm now being offered on online M.A. in fashion via a pop-up advert.
