Varina Houndstooth-Print Wool Coat

The concept of a "good coat" can be a nebulous one, but if there's a style we'd instantly reach for in times of need (read: polished occasions in less-than-balmy temperatures) it's the Varina style from Stella McCartney. A classic double-breasted silhouette crafted from pure, ethically sourced wool, it's topped with padded shoulders and a waist-cinching tie belt, while the classic houndstooth print adds a retro element.

• 100% wool
• Lining 52% viscose, 48% cotton

Stella is a girl’s girl, visible in designs that embrace femininity from a variety of different and subtle angles. One of the first conspicuously fur- and leather-free brands, Stella McCartney sets design and animal welfare on an equal footing, with unshakeable standards for both.
