Leonora | Women's Long Wool Draped Checkered Coat

The Leonora is a women's long wool checkered coat with an open front and a softly flared hem.

It brings structure and warmth to a simple outfit. The classic check pattern in red and brown looks friendly and put together, and the draped hem falls in a flattering shape that skims the body instead of clinging to it. The long length gives generous coverage when the weather turns cold.

Why You'll Love It

• Classic red and brown check: a familiar pattern that goes with the plain tops, trousers and skirts you already own.
• Open front: there is nothing to fasten, so it is easy to slip on and to layer over a blouse or a light knit.
• Structured build: holds its shape through regular wear, so it keeps looking smart season after season.

Perfect For

Errands, lunches with friends, a visit to the theatre or an afternoon out when the air has turned cool. Wear it over a plain blouse with dark trousers for a neat look, or over a jumper for a bit more warmth.

The flared hem gives a gentle shape through the hips and the open front means there is no fuss with buttons. It is a relaxed layer that still looks finished, and the pattern does the work of making a plain outfit feel considered.

The check pattern brings warmth to a grey day, and because the coat is structured it never looks sloppy. It is an easy way to add a little colour and interest to an outfit built from plain basics. It also travels well, which makes it a good choice for a weekend away.
