Coats & Jackets

A good jacket finishes a dress. Our coats and jackets are tailored to sit neatly over Diva dresses. They shape your waist instead of hiding it. Choose a cropped jacket, a lace bolero or a knee-length coat. Some come in floral embroidered fabrics. Each one is made in England for weddings, work and cooler evenings. Sizes run from S to XXL.

Cropped jackets and boleros

Short layers keep your waist on show. They work best over fitted dresses.

  • Tavistock: slightly cropped, with bell sleeves and a tie neck.
  • Seed Dawlish: a fitted jacket with a short peplum waist.
  • Ursula: a cropped stretch lace bolero with scalloped edges.
  • Fresno: a cropped jacket in floral embroidered fabric.

Tailored jackets for work

The Fulica has an oversized lapel and one button at the waist. It is Ripple Crepe, so it resists creases in your bag. The Seed Shillingford has a neat collar and hook-and-bar fastening. The Attimo has a striking open back and a tie belt.

Coats for colder days

The Seed Raquella is a knee-length A-line coat in Couture Stretch. The Taylor is Bi-Stretch with box pleats and side pockets. The Twilight ties at the waist with hidden pockets. For something special, the Brianca and Lambria use rich floral embroidery.

The Seed Silverstone is a coat dress. Wear it on its own with heels.

Matching, fabric and fit

Match a cropped jacket to a pencil dress. Match a longer coat to a midi hem. Pick one bold piece and keep the other plain. Our pencil dresses pair with almost every style here.

For new season layers, see AW26 coats and AW26 jackets.

Most coats are cut boxy to fit over anything. Ours are not. We design each one to sit over a fitted Diva dress. Contour seams and tie belts keep your shape. Sleeves are cut to fit over three quarter and long sleeves.

Fabrics include Couture Stretch, Bi-Stretch and Ripple Crepe. Couture Stretch drapes softly. Ripple Crepe is light and resists creases. Compare them in our fabric guide.

Colours include blue, black and red. The embroidered styles use our Nightshade Bloom pattern, which has a raised feel. The Brianca also has a full lining for extra warmth.
