Sienna Miller Proves A Great Tailored Coat Will Instantly Elevate Any Outfit – Shop Her Affordable Style Here

A good way to judge someone’s sense of preparation is to ask them when they bought their winter coat. The answer will likely be the beginning of September, right on the nose of the seasonal change as opposed to now, which is slap-bag on the downward slope to winter. Luckily, it might pay to be among the haphazard for once. Sienna Miller just stepped out in what might be the high-street coat of the season – and it’s still available to buy.

The coat in question is something of a classic – a belted navy design with enlarged lapels, sleeve loops and a mid calf-length silhouette – from British brand Aligne. The actor paired the style with an everyday uniform of baggy jeans, black loafers, a white tank and impressively salt-mussed-looking hair.

With a £295 price tag, and a 55% recycled wool composition, it’s a well-crafted workhorse that will last for several winters — perfect for the ‘buy-once-wear-forever’ approach to coat shopping.

The belted wrap coat, of course, is a design hero – not a compliment you can pay to all coats (the duffle, trench and car are other examples). That’s not to say, however, that you don’t have license to mix it up if the notion strikes you. On Alaïa’s AW25 runway, one belted leather coat was given a padded neck brace for an extra sculptural way to beat the wind. Duran Lantink, meanwhile, dialled up the drama of a dressing gown-style coat with an extroverted leopard print. Alongside these new-fangled styles, were versions that erred on the side of caution (read: classic). Fforme’s eggshell coat was given an ankle-sweeping silhouette, complete with a tasselled strand of leather as opposed to a fabric belt.

If you’re looking to maximise cost-per-wear potential, it’s wise to stick to something traditional. And with sumptuous belted options at Arket, Joseph and Theory, as well as Aligne, you’re spoilt for choice.
