Frequently Asked Questions About Vintage Coats

How to Wear a Vintage Coat

A vintage coat is incredibly versatile. For a modern, minimalist look, layer an oversized vintage wool coat over a monochromatic knit set and boots. To style vintage trench coats, wear them open over denim and loafers for an effortless ‘model-off-duty’ aesthetic. The beauty of a vintage silhouette is that it adds instant character to even the simplest of outfits.

How to Care for a Vintage Coat

Proper storage is the key to maintaining a vintage coat. Always use a wide, sturdy hanger (preferably wooden) to support the weight and maintain the shoulder shape. Store your coat in a cool, dry place and use a breathable garment bag for long-term storage. Using a clothes brush after each wear could also help to remove any surface dust and prevent pilling.

How to Clean a Vintage Wool Coat

Because wool is a natural fibre with self-cleaning properties, you should avoid frequent washing. For minor stains, spot clean with a damp cloth. For a full refresh, we recommend professional dry cleaning once a season. Never machine wash or tumble dry a vintage wool coat, as this can cause the fibres to felt and the coat to lose its structure.
