Next shoppers are lavishing praise on a versatile maxi coat that’s designed to complement virtually any outfit. Those who have already purchased the piece are lauding it for its ‘flattering’ fit and ‘soft’ material, ideal for autumn, winter and spring wear.

The Long Belted Maxi Coat is priced at £60 and is available in three colours. Shoppers can choose from black, brown and cream – making it adaptable for any ensemble.

Designed to bring a touch of elegance to any outfit, the longline coat can be paired with casual attire, workwear or occasionwear. The £60 garment features a smart notched lapel collar and a flattering belted waist, along with handy side pockets.

The timeless design ensures shoppers will be able to sport the coat for years to come. It’s unlined, so shoppers will get ample use out of it during the spring and autumn months, but there’s also space for layers and even chunky knits underneath in the winter, with customers describing it as ‘surprisingly warm’, according to Birmingham Live.

The Long Belted Maxi Coat is available in a range of sizes, from six up to 26, as well as petite and regular lengths. It’s a new addition for this season, but has already garnered some glowing reviews from Next shoppers.

A happy shapper commented: “Great flattering fit, material feels really soft. I’m happy with it, wish it came in other colours except black or cream. I think sizing is generous, I usually size up in coats so I can wear a chunky knit underneath, but on this occasion could have stuck to usual size.”

A second penned: “Really pleased, neutral colour goes with a lot, despite being thinner than others I tried it’s surprisingly warm.” One person added: “Good value, classic style coat. It is unlined though.”

The Long Belted Maxi Coat is up for grabs at £60 on the Next website, but if you fancy more variety, the Single Breasted Longline Tailored Coat from M&S is your pick at £69, available in two shades. For those looking for something different, New Look offers their Beige Relaxed Tailored Coat at £79.99 with fans raving that ‘the colour is perfect’.
