PATRICIA | Long puffer with adjustable belt

I loosen the belt after dinner and nobody is any the wiser.

A long winter coat usually makes you pick a side. Belt it and you are committed to one measurement for the whole evening, whether or not you have eaten. Leave it loose and the coat hangs like a bag from the shoulders. Patricia lets you change your mind at any point, which sounds like a small thing until the second week of December.

The belt is adjustable rather than fixed, so you set the waist where it is comfortable that day and move it when it is not. Pulling it in lifts the waistline and gives the long silhouette a break in it. The insulation is worked thin, so the coat covers a lot of ground without the weight that usually comes with that length.

Why women our age keep coming back to it

• The waist moves with the day. An adjustable belt means you are not locked into the measurement you chose at four in the afternoon.
• You can also wear it open. Loosen the belt entirely and it hangs as a straight long coat, which is two shapes from one garment.
• Long without the weight. Thin insulation keeps the load off the shoulders even at full length.
• The belt breaks up the length. Drawing it in lifts the waistline, so a full-length coat does not read as one long column.

How it fits

Patricia comes in XS through XL. Because the belt handles the waist, your size is decided by the chest and the shoulders rather than the middle, which is why it suits a range of shapes. If you are between two sizes, or you want to layer underneath, take the larger one. You have thirty days to try it at home.

30 days to change your mind

I am short and I worried it would swallow me. Belted, it does not. Imogene W., Boise

The brown is rich rather than muddy. I almost sent it back unopened and I am glad I did not. Faye R., Asheville
