    DETAILS

    The everyday coat with beautiful texture and a little shape.

    The Christie Coat in Black by Marle brings a softer take to everyday outerwear, combining a relaxed silhouette with a subtle sheen and softly crinkled texture. Crafted from a considered blend of cotton, silk and metal, the fabric has a distinctive finish that gives this simple black coat a little extra character.

    Designed with a clean collar, dropped shoulders and voluminous sleeves, Christie has an easy, relaxed shape with plenty of room for layering. A two-way centre-front zip makes it practical to wear and gives you more flexibility when moving or styling the coat.

    The optional self-fabric waist tie lets you completely change the silhouette. Leave it loose for a relaxed, oversized feel, or cinch it at the waist when you want more definition. The result is a coat that can feel casual one day and more sculpted the next.

    Pair Christie over denim and knitwear for everyday dressing, or cinch the waist over a simple dress when you want something a little more polished.
