Velvet A line coat WE350
Not available

The velvet coat gets an urban update. The shorter length makes it feel contemporary and the classic, double-breasted styling makes it a real statement piece.

    Comments about Boden Women Velvet A-line Coat:

    Luxurious, beautiful coat with a cheerful Boden lining...what's not to like? Nothing! However, I opted to send this coat back...I am tall and rather busty and while the coat looked "fine" on me, the high button front didn't really do anything to flatter me...might be a better option for someone who is not busty. Great fabric & swing to the coat. Velvet lends it a bit of a holiday feel.

    Looked adorable in the box but on it was not flattering on me. A bit too bulky around the waist. It probably would look good on someone tall and slim.

        This coat is much cuter on the model than in real life. I am always a size 0 or 2. The 2 was way to tight across the chest, and the arm holes were quite small...I have returned

          Bought a size down and it was still too big in the torso. This coat would probably be best suited for someone very tall (not me!)

            I love this coat! I ordered the Deep Sea. It is beautiful! I can dress it up with a scarf or put it on over a pair of jeans. It is the perfect inbetween coat, not thick and heavy but I have worn it out during a cold spell and it kept me warm. I ordered the size 4. Just get it, you will wear it more than you think:)

              Comments about Boden Women Velvet A-line Coat:

              I am very surprised at the negative reviews regarding the amount of material. This is a swing coat, and as such, is fuller at the bottom. I am 5' 4", 127 lbs, small busted, ordered the size 6 and it is very flattering. Boden was out of the light blue (my first choice) in my size when I ordered, so went with the "mole" which is a medium brown. On my monitor, the mannequin photo looks more like a brownish olive green, but as at least one reviewer has said, the model photo is accurate. It's brown and it goes with everything, so I'm happy. This coat is well made, although I worry about the buttons loosening, but that's an easy fix. The shoulders have slight padding which gives structure to the top and it looks great. The coat is youthful without being too girlish, and it's great to throw on here in Southern California where the weather is cool but not cold. Can't recommend it enough!

              Comments about Boden Women Velvet A-line Coat:

              Gorgeous coat - nicely made, nice details. BUT, on my 5'3" frame (longer legs, shorter waist, a bust), I really looked pregnant. Just two or three more buttons would help flatten the front but then it would be the Heritage Coat, which I already own in petite...A shame as these are great colors and a silky-style lining.

              Beautiful material and great color (I purchased the brown) but the design is not flattering. The bib style of the buttons coupled with the amount of material make it look at bit like maternity wear.

                Have only worn this coat once because weather has been too cold. Love this coat though, and will be super cute with a great pair of jeans. Not sure how this will wear, but seems to be made well, and good quality fabric.
