Jonathan Michael Camel Hair Coat - Polished (For Women)

This coat is perfect for early Spring or Autumn when I'm tired of dark colors. The camel hair is soft & the coat is beautifully made. For warmth - good to 45 degrees. It's also long enough for those of us who want to cover our knees. I am 5'8" & it hits at mid calf. I was, however, somewhat disappointed that there is not the usual hand-picked stitches or top stitching details that are generally found on coats of this type. That would have greatly ampped-up the styling. So I added my own. I will also probably add better buttons, maybe mother of pearl. Other wise perfect all purpose coat for both day & night use.

THis coat is lovely! I had purchsed another Jonathan Michael coat in black a couple of years ago, and love it because it is lightweight but very warm. When I wanted a camel hair, this brand was where I looked first. I'm tall, but thin, and the size 4 is perfect, with enough room for a sweater or light jacket if necessary. There are a few wrinkles, but if I can't get them out I'll have the dry cleaners' steam them. This will be a great addition to my winter wardrobe; it will be worn with everything from jeans and cords to dress wool slacks and skirts. The price was such a nice surprise considering the quality of the coat.

When the package arrived my husband sent me an email. I told him to open it and let me know what he thought. The first word was "soft". It is perfect for dress as it is not too heavy. It is styled for a slim body although my wider hips fit fine with it buttoned. It truly is a classic that won't go out of style. I live in Minnesota so I like the long length but I wouldn't wear it if it were below zero and I needed to be outside for an extended time. It's designed for style, not excessive warmth.

I would wear this coat all winter long, to work and out on the town! It is a very soft cashmere/merino blend with a touch of nylon for wear. It is very classic. I do think the size 16 is a little on the small side.

The fabric it too thin and it is no spesial layer betwen fabric and lining. So its look poor but it will ok for every day.

Classic versatile top coat. Bought one a couple of years ago and loved it...then lost weight and was so bummed to discover the coat I loved was now way too big. Was thrilled to find it again in my new size and at a ridiculously low price. This is a classic that you will wear for years to come with everything from jeans to dresses. Dress it up or down with choice of scarves, gloves, and even belts! Great fabric (soft, rich-looking, not scratchy) and warm for it's weight. This is not going to be the coat you wear on a frigid winter day, but it is perfectly comfortable between 20 and 45 degrees. Although it would look better if it had a kick pleat, the lack thereof actually makes it warmer. May run long overall for shorter gals...but I'm tall with long arms, and this is close to about right. If you're particular about sleeve length, these sleeves can be easily lengthened up to about an inch max.

I read all the reviews. The coat arrived and exceeded my expectations. The critical reviews are overstated. This is a great coat for the price. Heck, great coat period.

This is a beautiful dress coat, formal enough in black for work or evenings out. The size 10 was perfect, with just enough room for a jacket or sweater underneath without being too big over lighter clothes (for reference, I'm 5'3", 150 lbs, busty, and 10 is my usual size). Sleeves are a bit long for me but that's typical since I have slightly shorter than average arms. The cut is very flattering, with a long, lean line. The fabric appears very "finished" and plush, without the slightly hairy quality wool outerwear fabrics can sometimes have. My only complaint is common to most wool fabric coats: this is not likely to be warm enough for truly bitter cold days, at least not without significant layering. But it's the nicest looking of several dress coats I tried, so this is the one I kept.

Feels great! Probably not the best for temps below 25 degrees.

This is a wonderful coat. A true classic in design.The fabric is beautiful. I live in the upstate of South Carolina and need a coat of this type only a few weeks out of the year which is why I chose the classic design. I look forward to weaing this coat for many yaers!
