Women's Down Jackets and Coats

Down Jacket Superdry or Guess: Length, Hood and Filling

A down jacket is primarily chosen for its length: short for freedom of movement, mid-length to cover the hips in extreme cold. Its filling, whether down or synthetic fibres, determines its warmth: down offers the best balance between warmth and weight, while synthetic retains its qualities better in the rain. Superdry, an English brand launched in 2003 in Cheltenham, offers several models: the Fuji and Everest with hoods for chilly mornings, the City for urban wear, and the lighter Fuji Lite, which can be slipped under a coat.

At Guess, the New Oxana with hood and the down jacket featuring the 4G pattern focus more on style, with trendier finishes for the city.

Swedish Rain: Didriksons and Packable Jackets

Didriksons was founded in 1913 in Grundsund, on Sweden's west coast, where Julius and Hanna Didrikson made oilskin clothing for fishermen. The brand has retained this specialty: its waterproof jackets Tilde, Jennie or Varja and the Felia parka combine waterproof fabric and sealed seams with feminine cuts designed for the city. Its hooded fleece Bibi serves as a warm layer under these jackets or can be worn alone in dry weather.

Packable jackets, like the Regatta Pack It or the Trespass Qikpac, fold into their own pocket and fit into the bottom of a bag to prepare for unexpected showers. The more covering Regatta Brianka accompanies long walks in the city.

Coat, Blazer, Denim Jacket: City Pieces

The coat, like the Desigual Napoles, offers a more dressed-up look than a down jacket and can be worn over office attire. The polar cape by Tom Tailor, with a lapel collar, plays the softness of a blanket with the silhouette of a light coat, while the Peak Mountain Alaine or Trespass Meadows fleeces accompany transitional season strolls.

The blazer, like the Ichi Kate or the KAFFE Kinnie, structures a work outfit in spring and autumn when a coat would be too much. The denim jacket, like the Desigual Mickey, adorned with the famous character, and the Desigual June jacket take over on mild days. More fluid than a blazer, it layers easily over a thin jumper as the evening cools down.

Frequently Asked Questions

Short or Long Down Jacket: Which to Choose for Winter?

The short down jacket allows complete freedom for fast walking, cycling or driving. The long one covers the hips and thighs: it’s the best choice for long waits outdoors and harsh winters.

How to Wash a Down Jacket?

In the machine, on a delicate cycle at thirty degrees, with a special down detergent and without fabric softener. Dry it in the tumble dryer on a low temperature with two or three tennis balls, which break up the clumps of feathers and restore loft.

How to Know if a Down Jacket is the Right Size?

When closed over a thin jumper, it allows arm movement without exposing the lower back, and the sleeves reach the wrist when arms are extended in front. A down jacket that’s too tight compresses its filling and loses some of its warmth.

How to Maintain a Wool Coat Between Cleanings?

Brush it after wearing, hang it on a wide hanger, and let it air out rather than washing it often. Any stain should be treated immediately with cold water; for a complete clean, follow the label, which often refers to dry cleaning.

How to Recognise a Truly Waterproof Jacket?

Look at the water column in millimetres: the higher it is, the better the jacket will withstand heavy showers. Sealed seams and an adjustable hood enhance protection, while a simple water-repellent treatment only holds up against light rain.
