Step Into Elegance with The Platinum Tailor's Black Double Breasted Wool Cashmere Long Overcoat

A double breasted overcoat is a more formal, more commanding choice than a single breasted one. The overlapping front creates a stronger silhouette, the peak lapels add structure, and when it's buttoned correctly it looks like it means business. It's not a coat that blends into a room.

The Coat

Our Men's Black Double Breasted Wool Cashmere Long Overcoat features peak lapels, a double breasted button fastening, and a long 46-inch cut. Made from a wool and cashmere blend, fully lined with black satin. Two hip pockets, two inside pockets. Centre vent for ease of movement.

When to Choose Double Breasted

Formal occasions: a double breasted coat is better suited to formal events than a single breasted one. The extra structure and the peak lapels read as intentional and considered.

City dressing: worn over a suit in an urban setting, this is one of the strongest looks in everyday men's dressing. The coat does the work.

When you want presence: some coats recede into an outfit. This one doesn't. If the occasion calls for something that makes a statement, double breasted is the right choice.

How to Wear It

Keep it buttoned. A double breasted coat worn open loses much of its effect. The structure and the proportion rely on the front being closed correctly. Pair it with dark trousers or a dark suit. Keep everything else clean and simple. The coat is the statement.
