'Timeless' £60 Primark coat 'almost identical' to £5,700 designer version
Share:
Primark is selling a "timeless" £60 coat that closely resembles a £5,770 designer alternative. For those looking for a chic designer coat, The Row's Malika Wool-Blend Coat could make a great option. With its notched lapels, tie fastening and oversized fit, the Italian-made garment oozes luxury.
However, given its £5k price tag, it's out of reach for many. Luckily, Primark is selling a much cheaper alternative that also screams luxury without the big cost. Shoppers looking for a double-breasted coat are sure to love Primark's The Edit Belted Longline Coat. Available for £60, the high street retailer's option is a fraction of the cost of The Row's coat.
Similarly to the designer brand, Primark's coat features notched lapels and a tie fastening. It also boasts a relaxed fit, slip pockets and is available in shades 'Camel' and 'Black'. Primark's description reads: "Cosy up in this belted longline coat when the temperatures drop. Featuring within The Edit collection, which is filled with timeless styles and elevated wardrobe essentials, this coat showcases a classic look that’s always in fashion.
"It’s cut to a relaxed fit that enables you to layer up pieces underneath it, while the long length offers plenty of coverage." While the composition varies depending on the colour you select, Primark's 'camel' coat is 51% wool, 46% polyester, 1% acrylic, 1% nylon, and 1% viscose.
Meanwhile, the product description for the designer coat says: "The Row continues to excel in offering understated outerwear, exemplified by the perfectly clean-lined Malika coat. Italian-crafted in a thick wool blend, the double-breasted piece is cinched at the waist with a matching belt, allowing you to take control over its oversized shape and lend it a dose of definition.".
