Better in theory
Wednesday, February 21, 2007 9:44I love the new spring 2007 coats at Club Monaco. First they came in black and khaki with wide cropped sleeves. They look amazing on the mannequin.
Then I spotted the slicker version. Grey patent, this would be a standout coat.
Unfortunately, I realized that I couldn’t pull it off. I put this coat on and it looked like a big plastic bag wrapped around me. Sigh, no patent jackets for me. 
The black one was okay, but looked much better on the mannequin.

i think this would work. i can see it on someone who’s really tall and really skinny. otherwise, it would look like a garbage bag and lumpy…

I hear ya! I once had a patent leather trench and my boyfriend at the time told me I looked cheap.
Like you said, better in theory.

I’m not really tall 5′5″ and I’m pretty skinny(athletic not rail) and it was just awful. The fit of those jackets is wrong. They look good on the mannequin probably because they pin the excess material in the back. It’s so sad. I was with 2 other friends, Moonrox and MJ. MJ has the best taste and was like try it on. He took one look and laughed and said take that shit off.
