While browsing the virtual shelves at Hush, looking for something else, I unexpectedly came across the fabulous Pelle coat. I was genuinely surprised to see it still available, especially since I guessed it would have sold out quickly. As of now, all sizes are in stock, and the coat, which is thick like a horse blanket and made from stunning wool, is marked down from £219 to £110.
I assumed it would be long gone because it’s such a timeless classic; its sleek long design and elegant check pattern make it a staple in my wardrobe this winter. I often wear it over jeans and sneakers, so it’s not the kind of coat that you save for special occasions. However, it also looks exceptionally striking when paired with more formal outfits.
Every time I wear the Pelle coat, people ask where it’s from, which always thrills me. Some even think it’s one of those super-expensive coats requiring a small fortune to buy, but it’s not. I usually don’t splurge on clothing, despite some misconceptions among my friends and family. Although I did spend extravagantly in my early career days, adult responsibilities quickly ended that habit. Looking back, things were much cheaper then. I remember buying a Miu Miu bag for £185 and a Mulberry tote for £450. Even a pint seemed expensive at £2.65, and now, the thought of real estate brings on nostalgia for those “affordable” times.
Back to the Pelle. It’s rare to find something of such high quality and desirability in a sale. Typically, sales feature items like a lime green net skirt discounted from £1,342 to £280, just because it’s Balenciaga. But the Pelle coat is different; it’s a piece that will last a lifetime. You could wear it anywhere, whether commanding a ship or strolling through fields. It complements both smart and casual outfits perfectly, making it an investment without the hefty price.
You can purchase it online for £110. I own a size 10 and find it true to size, though I usually buy sizes 10 and 12 to see which fits best. The coat might look smoother on taller individuals, and it features the longest belt I’ve ever encountered—you could practically use it as a lasso! Let me know how it works out for you.
