Occasion Coats

Complete a wedding outfit with a knee-length occasion coat and pretty detachable corsage. Perfect layering for the Mother of the Bride and Groom plus the Grandmother of the Bride. Clean lines with a concealed front fastening, slant pockets and round neckline provide a smooth silhouette. The shorter length frock and opera coats work well over shift dresses for any formal event. You’ll find plus size short occasion coats at Jacques Vert, Eastex and Chesca.


Mother of the Bride Wedding and Occasion Coats

Short Jackets

Short style jackets are a wardrobe staple that can transform the final appearance of any outfit. Layer over everything from formal dresses to weekend casuals. Practical and smart jackets work throughout the year. Lightweight jackets to take off the chill are just perfect for the spring. Team with a pencil skirt or straight leg trousers and a blouse for chic workwear. Achieve a well-balanced look with clever layering in a similar colour palette.

Collarless Coats and Jackets

Dropped shoulder collarless short coats in eye-catching polka dots or colour block patterns are guaranteed to turn heads. L.K. Bennett boasts fashionable shorter length styles in the season’s most sought after designs. Classic styles are given a makeover with modern touches. Dramatic designs come in multi colours and block stripes. There are also black and white prints that tap into the monochrome trend perfectly

Zipped Italian wool biker jackets from Karen Millen keep your style bang on-trend. The best of many come with a detachable faux fur collar to take you through the seasons. A versatile option to wear with jeans to tailoring and dressy trousers. Softly textured leather and suede reefer jackets in a variety of colours add a good mix to the collection. Double-breasted trench coats that finish at the knee are tailored for a close fit. Collared with matt gold buttons give a nautical feel.
