The Wilton Overcoat is an investment piece and a coat for life, so we want it to fit just right. Our coats have been designed with a regular and relaxed fit to allow some layering underneath.
Women's Coat Measurement Chart
How to find the right size:
1. The measurements are taken on the garment laid flat from seam to seam, not on the body.
2. The body length is the highest point that the body meets the collar, to the base of the garment.
3. The sleeve is measured from where the sleeve meets the collar seam, to the base of the cuff, following the outside curve of the sleeve.
4. The chest is measured from armpit to armpit, laid flat, not the circumference.
Model measurements for reference.
Our model El, below, is 5 foot 5 / 167.5cm, Size UK 8 and wears a size Small. She wears a size Small in all our other jackets.
Our model Siôbhan, below, is 5 foot 2 / 157.5cm and a UK size 6. She wears a size XS. Siobhan wears our XXS in Harris Tweed (slightly looser fit) and an XS in our Batch 18, Batch 16 & Oxford shirt.

Recycled Cashmere & Wool Chore Coat vs Harris Tweed
Our Recycled Cashmere & Wool chore coat is a shorter, boxier jacket, compared to our longer Wilton Overcoat. Despite that, if you like the fit of your Cashmere Chore Coat, we'd recommend going for the same size.
