Transform Your Look with a Statement Overcoat

[@jameslynch-h8q]

A wool British warm is my favourite overcoat. Daks. My step down is a conceal rain coat made by Aquascutum. Both are decades old and well made.

I was fortunate enough to inherit my father’s cashmere overcoat that he purchased in the 1960s. I’ve had the liner replaced. It’s a really beautiful coat. I’m so glad to see these jackets promoted.

Thank you for your comment!

Herringbone is just an amazing pattern that looks very sophisticated in my opinion, but it's rather hard to match outside the actual full suit spectrum. Large and prominent stand-alone pieces like an overcoat are a perfect solution to this dilemma, I think.

[@RampleyandCo]

Thank you for your thoughtful comment! We completely agree that herringbone is a sophisticated pattern. Using it in standout pieces like overcoats is a great way to incorporate this style into outfits.

I do love the herringbone pattern , it makes me feel like a prince from 1940

Thank you for sharing!

Good video. Liked that point about length. Many manufacturers seem to be short-changing the customers on length and this is particularly true of raincoats, with many ending well-above the knee. Accessories? Decent gloves and a scarf. And I'll admit to secreting a good beany in my briefcase. Like that suit, Chris.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! I'm glad you found the video helpful, especially regarding the length of overcoats.

Last year I was fortunate enough to get a cashmere and wool over coat. Classic design and fabrics. I can't wait to wear them this fall and winter.

[@RampleyandCo]

Sounds great!

[@scrambaba]

beautiful coats esp the tweed

[@RampleyandCo]

Many thanks!

My overcoat is from the 1960's. It is exceptionally heavy. A bit too much for today, perhaps. However, it is exceptional quality, fits wonderfully and makes me feel great. 😊

[@RampleyandCo]

That sounds like a timeless piece! We're glad to hear it's still making you feel great-quality and craftsmanship like that never go out of style. Thanks for sharing!

You have read my mind. I have been looking for a DB overcoat. Something different, as you said they are out there but difficult to find.

[@RampleyandCo]

Thank you so much for your comment!

[@filippersson5256]

This piece says matured 🕶️

Thank you for your comment!

[@tommybessner4318]

Thanks! What’s the brand and name/model of the “statement overcoat”?

[@chrismodoo6563]

Hi….this is one of my designs from when I was at Chester Barrie. They sometimes can be found on EBay. But contemporary brands to look at are Mark Powell, Edward Sexton, Cad & The Dandy and Alexander Kraft Monte Carlo. Alternatively you could consider made-to-measure or bespoke.

[@tommybessner4318]

Hi Chris. I’m very thankful for your answer. Wonderful coat you designed!

[@phillipmarlowe0525]

Wear a statement over coat to make a statement. 😊

[@badgasaurus4211]

Where would you recommend one search for a knee length overcoat? They don’t seem the easiest to find in the UK

[@moorshound3243]

Posh tailors in the UK will have them but you will be paying for it.

[@michaelmclaughlin7328]

Brook Taverner in the U.K.👍

[@rafi3993]

Please let them be not too short! Promote those of them that end below our knies.

[@RampleyandCo]

Thank you for your comment.

[@brianmarks4121]

What length does Mr Modoo recommend? It seems coats have been getting shorter in recent years.

[@chrismodoo6563]

Mid-calf

[@michaelr.stoddard3391]

Where can I find the double breasted gray wool overcoat on the right? Please share the link

[@chrismodoo6563]

This is a Chester Barrie from 2016. I would suggest looking at Edward Sexton, Cad & The Dandy, Mark Powell and Alexander Kraft Monte Carlo for contemporary versions.

I would love a 1 on 1 consultation with Modoo, but I don't have the money right now to take advantage of his great ideas. Maybe someday.

[@rdmountford3132]

Yea....beautiful for the Arfur Daley look

[@w.adammandelbaum1805]

I wore my overcoat under oath...it was a sworn statement piece.
