about the carrington coat

The Carrington is fantastically flattering and easy to wear.

It is designed to fall to the calf, has bracelet length sleeves, neatly tailored shoulders and a generous swing. Two small seams accentuate a flattering waisted shape at the back, while jetted pockets sit at a subtly slanted angle at the front.

The design can be worn open or closed. When closed, the two front panels of the coat should be able to meet without either straining at the rear or overlapping at the front; they can be held together to keep the coat closed with any of our closures.

body type

The Carrington works well on straighter frames with more modest busts.

– the carrington sizing –

The size table below shows the measurements of the Carrington coat in both inches and centimetres. The graphic and accompanying table show the points at which the measurements have been taken.

In selecting your size please remember that these are the garment measurements – your own measurements will be smaller than those shown on the chart – ie a size 8 might typically have a bust measurement of 83cm, fitting a coat with a bust of 91cm.

When selecting your size, please bear in mind what you think you might want to wear underneath your coat and remember that while we can take coats in, we cannot let them out.
