Charles Nolan

This coat will be with me a long time. So pretty and versatile. The arm holes are just short of restrictive. The coat is tailored nicely, I'm just used to roominess. Nice way to satisfy my quality shopping jones.

Very stylish

Beautifully made and simply adorable. You would probably not want to wear it for everyday, but for any other occassion it is perfect. The pictures don't do it justice.

pretty

We've lost a gifted designer with the recent passing of Charles Nolan. I'm thrilled to own another of his creations. I have several other pieces by him. I'm always asked, "Who are you wearing?"

I got this based on a number of good reviews. It is beautifully-made and nice wool, but it is definitely a spring coat--short sleeves and not very warm. Others have mentioned that the back slit goes about up to your mid back. All that said, I would keep it as a spring coat except...it really looks kind of frumpy. I am slim and fairly tall, but I look pretty dumpy in it.

I've been eyeing this coat for 2 years now, so I finally caved in and bought it. I'm so pleased! The photo does not do this coat justice, I'm surprised it hasn't sold out yet. It's a stunning, unique and exquisitely crafted coat - truly a timeless classic. The back vent provides an interesting design element and the fabric is like butter - surprising considering it's wool. Can be worn either open or closed with jeans or with a LBD, anything goes. Being a spring/fall coat I'm sure I'll be trying it on all winter in anticipation of warmer weather! Would be a perfect all season coat in warmer climates.

I will wear this over leggings.

Nice cut and details in this dress. It's flirty and feminine - form-fitting yet forgiving (for those of us with less than perfect figures). Versatile dress - dress it up or down. Featherweight fabric - feels like you're wearing nothing! Should be great for travel. I have not cleaned it yet and cannot comment on durability.

This is a beautiful, stylish coat. It's quite lightweight (more along the lines of a heavy sweater coat)and isn't particularly warm, at least in terms of withstanding chilly, windy winters in the New York/New Jersey area. I would consider it more appropriate for fall wear in this part of the country. As far as flattering certain body types, the cut is probably best suited for people who are NOT particularly curvy (either in the bust or the hip area); otherwise the fit might be too snug and the coat wouldn't hang properly. Overall, delighted with it.
