Marks and Spencer's £70 Longline Tailored Coat with Wool has become a bestseller, with shoppers praising it for looking and feeling more expensive than its price tag. The coat comes in two autumnal shades—chocolate and black—and is available in UK sizes 6-24, in both petite and regular lengths, though some sizes are already sold out.
Designed for versatility, the coat is ideal for work and for layering over a festive party dress, thanks to its chic long length and classic cut that won't date. It features a touch of wool for a cosy yet luxurious feel, along with a timeless single-breasted design and practical vent pockets for everyday wear.
Shopper reviews highlight quality and style
Shoppers have left high praise for the coat, which currently has 25 reviews. One person said: "Smart, cosy warm. This coat is ideally smart and cosy for the cold winter. The colour matches almost everything and the quality is just what was expected for an M&S garment."
Another reviewer raved: "Beautiful on trend coat, I wear it for work and it compliments my work outfits well, great value for money compared to other high street shops and fits well." A third added: "Structured. Very good quality, looks dressy and slightly oversized. Comfortable and warm."
Styling options and minor drawbacks
A fourth shopper liked the many outfits they could make with the buy, writing in part of their review: "This is a beautiful, chocolate brown coat. I bought this as a smarter option to wear out with jeans/trousers on a girls day out, but can also be worn casually with leggings and trainers."
One person did mention a minor drawback with the sleeve length, commenting: "Lovely. Bit boxy but not big. Sleeves quite long." Despite this, another fashion fan said: "Gorgeous. I’ve been looking out for a new winter coat to catch my eye, one that doesn’t run into hundreds £s and this is it. I wanted a stylish smart but boxy look rather than fitted and this works perfectly. Love the colour and the price."
Comparison with other high street options
Elsewhere on the high street, New Look's Dark Burgundy Shawl Collar Belted Wrap Coat comes in multiple colours and costs £59.99. Over at Roman, the black Tailored Single Breasted Coat normally costs £69, but new shoppers can use the code 'AFRPLC25Q226' at checkout to bring the price down to £51.75. Those who have previously made a purchase with Roman can use the code 'CRISP', which reduces the price to £62.10.
A final review of the M&S coat reads: "Great coat. At £70 pounds this coat looks and feels more expensive. I ordered the 12 in a petite and it fits exactly on my arms and length. This was made all the more sweeter by the fact I also had 16 pounds in my Sparks wallet - honestly what's not to like. Keep it up M&S, you're killing it."
