Idk the designers of these coats, but I immediately thought of this photo upon reading this thread.

really like and will definitely wear that notion of an oversized coat like a coat. problem is, when i try to wear my single breasted coat like this, it tends to slip right off my shoulders. probably will need a double breasted coat for that

**lucy92** · 21-07-2012

do they also call these "duster" coats?

CursedPoet · 13-08-2012

Seroiusly...I just don't get this trend. What's the point of wearing a coat with sleeves without actually using them? Not that I'm that much into functional fashion, but this doesn't really seem to look right to me.

^ agree, looks amazing but no...or just at MFW or PFW.

Jinadaze · 21-08-2012

I don't get it either, and if you're having narrow shoulders you can't even wear it like this not falling down.

**Meg** · 21-08-2012

so is this an extension of the last couple of seaons' wearing a coat on your shoulders?

While I love the aesthetics of this look - as soon as you add an handbag (and movement) to this look you basically have to clutch the coat to keep it from sliding from your shoulders. I don't get how these women can walk and do this because a gentle breeze is enough for a blazer/cardi/coat to feel like it's sliding from my shoulders.

Chanelcouture09 · 21-08-2012

^Exactly, I think it's more of an evening wear trend, coming and going from an event more so than for a long period of time, my favorite is the Pucci look on Joan. But there was a perfect casing point in what you were saying, there was a look at Altuzarra F/W 10/11 (again, on Joan) and as soon as she turned the corner one of the shoulders slid off, I think the menswear version would make anyone look like Del Boy Trotter, so it won't be something I'll be attempting any time soon.

i like it in evening wear, it's very classic actually, women used to go to night events wearint wearing capes or coats that way. i don't quite like it on men, but maybe just because these pics aren't that good!

honestly I don't think this is a trend. Wearing your winter heavy coat over your shoulders is a way to carry the coat confortably once you are inside somewhere, like a store or something. My grandfather used to do that all the time in winter.
