Plus Size Coats

Rainy Days: Cute and Comfy Plus Size Coats

Every year I get people asking me where they can find really good quality plus size coats. Depending on where you are, it can be cold, windy, or wet… and if you live where I do it can be all three in one day, especially in winter and spring (and if this year is anything to go by, summer and autumn as well)! I’ve done a bit of hunting and found options for all kinds of weather, so snuggle up with a cuppa and take a look.

BRAVE THE RAIN

Plus size raincoats are right up there with the things I get asked about most often, and unfortunately there are not a large amount of waterproof raincoat options out there – a lot of them are only water resistant. This is definitely a gap in the market and a place where I think both local and international retailers could do better (there’s need for waterproof raincoats where I live year round, especially if you’re a parent of a child who plays sport or you like to be able to leave your house without getting saturated). Anyway, enough of the ranting, here are some waterproof and water resistant options.

WRAP UP WARM

If you’re somewhere cold (but not wet), you’ll want a coat that keeps you warm. I’ve had a few great woollen coats over the years and my favourite style is one that comes with a belt so that I can give it a bit more shape and make sure it fits my body well – if clothing is looser that gives more space for cold air to get in!

KEEP IT CLASSIC

A classic trench or a mac is great as both a fashion statement for trans seasonal weather and to keep the wind off when it’s a bit chilly. Again, I recommend a belted one so that you can personalise your fit.

Because plus size coats are one of the harder to find wardrobe items, I’ll make sure I share some more options in the months to come (especially ones for cold weather). If there is a particular style you’re after, then let me know and I’ll be sure to keep an eye out.
