CL AS SIC OVERCOATS & TOPCOATS Overcoats have been worn for formal use throughout the world for centuries. Indicative of social status or worn as part of a professional or military uniform, the overcoat has evolved; only a few have survived as classics. Here are details of a few for interest…

THE CHESTERFIELD Named after the Earl of Chesterfield; traditionally constructed from a woollen heavyweight cloth, although other cloth types have become accepted. Traditionally it displays a black velvet collar and was generally long with very little styling or shape.

However today the style of the coat is much shorter and is tailored with waist suppression created by side seams and darts.

It can be single or double breasted, although the single is more preferred, displaying a fly front to conceal the buttons.

THE CROMBIE Constructed from a heavy weight woollen cloth; it is generally exceptionally thick and dark in colour. It is single breasted with a notched collar and slash pockets. This style of overcoat is now one of the most popular city coats.

THE COVERT Traditionally a classically brown or fawn country coat made from a densely woven fabric displaying a steep twill line. Because of its style and comfort it has widely become accepted for city wear.

A covert coat generally has notched lapels, is short in length with a centre back vent, has two flapped pockets and is single breasted with a fly front. The collar can be made from the same fabric as the coat or from a contrasting one to compliment.

OVERCOATS… • Are generally long and worn below the knee or shin.

• An item of clothing worn over a suit or dress.

• Are made from heavy woollen fabrics like doeskins or fur as they are worn to protect the wearer from the outdoor elements.

• A doeskin traditionally has a napped surface and should ultimately feel smooth resembling the luxurious appearance of a female deer’s coat.

• Woollen cloths are made from woollen spun yarns; the yarn is much thicker and loftier than that of a worsted spun cloth making them warmer to wear.

• Doeskin and imitation doeskin cloths are featured in this collection.

• Traditional woollen spun overcoats are featured in this collection.

TOPCOATS… • Are shorter than overcoats and are generally worn above the knee.

• Are lighter in weight than overcoats and are generally worn mid season.

• Are traditionally made from a covert constructed fabric.

• A covert fabric is a warp faced fabric that is mottled in appearance. This is achieved by weaving a grandrelle warp with a solid coloured weft; a grandrelle being a contrasting 2-ply yarn.
