The Joseph code is gorgeous! The missing lining in this coat is actually a plus, it is a double faced fabric, which is finished by stitching the two layers of the fabric against each other. This allows to finish a coat beautifully without seam allowances or facings left visible and therefore looks clean from the inside without needing a lining ;) Its a technique and fabric mainly used in high priced brands as the fabrics tend to be expensive and it requires special machinery. (Max Mara is known to do great double faced coats)
Thank you SO much for sharing this! That makes sense because all the high end ones I looked at were unlined! xx
My Celine coat is wool double faced fabric. I prefer this to a lining. Makes it snug inside on the skin given that the wool is high quality. Stella McCartney do some cashmere blends which are divine.
That Joseph coat looks amazing on you Lizzy, the color suits you so well! Definitely way out of my budget but I can totally see why it's the winner. Great testing basics as always!
Always feel so inspired to dress up after watching your videos. This has never changed since I've watched your very first videos from the Come Shopping With Me one taken in Singapore!
Always the perfect viewing with my morning porridge . Makes my Sunday 💕just love your style and great content💕
these sit down videos are the best 😍 i feel calm just hearing your voice and no music
Love the sheer black blouse you're wearing in the intro! Looks so good paired with a lacy bra. Where is it from?
Zia , I also want to know...It's lovely.
and me! @lizzyhadfield please tell us!!!
The Joseph coat is gorgeous indeed! Do love the Everlane one as well, too bad I’m already sorted coat-wise.
As an American, this was a particularly interesting testing basics because obviously British high street stores all convert their prices to USD with slightly different markups and with coats you can feel the difference a bit more. In USD, from least to most expensive the coats rank: ASOS, Topshop, Everlane, And Other Stories, Joseph. I bought the ASOS coat in petite! with a 25% off promo last month (I think ASOS offsets their markup with a lot of American discount codes (our promo this weekend is 30% off)) and I think it's comparable to h&m pricing and quality but I won't run into someone else wearing it on the subway.
Oh this is a really interesting point - I know Topshop is a lot more expensive over there too. We are lucky in the UK because our high street is so strong and we don't see much of a mark up from the European brands like the H&M group and Inditex. xxx
It drives me a crazy as an expat Brit in the US! I ship to my mums in the Uk and get her to bring stuff to me when she visits the US. Drives her crazy.
Beware...I was at a party a few years back in Virginia and three girls had the same ASOS dress. If you can find twins in the Mid-Atlantic, you can find them anywhere!
Tausi W | ASOS prices do not even convert to the same prices throughout Europe. I’m Dutch, but if I buy a British brand like Whistles on ASOS, it’s easily 20/30 euros more expensive than if I were to buy with Whistles directly. Same with many Scandinavian brands.
Where is the black top from that you had on in the intro?
Loved this video! The stories and Joseph coats were my personal fave xx
Aime Watson me too love the black shirt!
Third for the black top in the intro!
Forth ;) looked absolutely lovely. I might even add where the bra underneath is from, as it seemed very chic as well
Would love a video over teddybearcoat! And where is your blouse in the intro from? Looks lovely!
That blouse!!!
Really enjoyed these as ever, do you think you could have more difference in costs? With two under £100, two under £200 and then jump to a £1000 -there was a fe brands I was expecting to see (all saints, cos etc)
Her wool coats testing basics video had an all saints coat in it and a more even distribution of costs if you want to watch that one :)
Hi! Yess I used to stagger them a lot but people commented saying they prefered to see more around the more affordable end. I did an All Saints coat last winter and don't really recommend them sadly, so didn't want to feature again. Will try to stagger a little more for the next ones! Thank you xxx
Thanks for replying. Was after someone to justify me purchasing an unlined, no fastening All Saints coats tbh. I'll keep looking x
That Joseph coat is amazing! I’m glad you included Everlane in this one. I’ve been eyeing that coat for a while now. Guess I’ll be ordering it 😊
Go for it! xxx
I had been looking for a youtuber/blogger like you for AGES! Fantastic video, first one of yours I've seen, definitely subscribing
The Joseph coat is what dreams are made of !! Also love how honest your reviews are even if it was a gifted item !
Thank you SO much! xx
Omg was literally just waiting for this before I buy a coat thank you!!
i actually adored the topshop coat on you, such a nice colour and cool cut!
Hi Lizzy, I love the black top you're wearing at the opening segment of the video -- could you share where it's from pretty please? xx
Topshop but unfortunately sold out! xx
Hey Lizzy, great video. I really love that Stories coat. Just a tip: the percentages listed on the content tags aren't "fabrics," they are actually fibers. This tag is called the fiber content tag. For example, all the things listed on the content tag from the & Other Stories coat are fibers. The construction of the textile is the fabric. Eg, the fiber may be made of silk, but the fabric may be a satin weave with a chiffon finish. Just an FYI!
Interesting, thank you!
Hi Lizzy, thank you for the video! I definitely enjoyed it. Joseph coat is just insane! I believe that cashmere makes a huge difference in terms of fabric and I am not sure how much fair is to compare it with the others... Maybe it should be done in a "cashmere coats" testing basics video which I know isn't easy to find in high street unfortunately xx
I have loads of Everlane clothes that I've bought whilst in the US or during their rare international shipping weeks. Always good quality. Can't wait for them to start shipping to Europe permanently!!
The ASOS coat doesn't have vent possibly due to the fact that adding a vent would increase the production cost, vents are tricky to sew and more time consuming, you'd also have to sew a center back seam in order to add a vent which could disrupt the check, like you can see in the side seams. Skipping on the vent is just another way they can produce the coat much faster and cheaper.
Ahhh thank you so much for sharing that! It's a shame they have cut those corners when the Topshop one is actually a lower price! xx
No problem! Ya that surprised me too! Maybe the fabric cost more?? We'll never know
I never mind you getting free stuff so long as the brands are ones you like :)) loved this set by the way, coats are my favorite
Thank you so much! xx
A lot of gorgeous coats - my favorite is the 6 other stories one! I've spent about 6 weeks looking for a longline wool winter coat and it was SO diffuclt. I'm 5'1 and evething was so oversized that sometimes even the smallest sizes drowned me. And it was also really difficult to find one with a decent wool procentage. Found one in the end from H&M of all places, with like 88 % wool, and it a size that would nomally never fit me.
Love that Joesph coat! I get vibes from the last scene of The First Wives Club where they're all in white coats! Always thought they were so stylish when I was younger! Good choice Lizzy!
Great testing basics love all of the coat that you featured great taste 💖
On "testing basics Sunday" we chill with my bf on the couch he does his stuff and I watch your video. Usually he picks and says what he likes or not. First time ever he said he did not like a coat and it was so weird...because I really liked it... the everlane one. He said very "manly" comments and I was wondering when do women overcome flattering clothes for style. Anyway.. I love your videos I wiuld recommend though to film through daylight the coats. Cannot wait for the next one. Xoxo
That was my fave.
alteredcatscyprus I reaaaally liked it as well but I guess men have other eyes... dunno 🙈
Such gorgeous picks, as always! x
I love these videos Lizzy! ✨ have you ever thought of using a clothes rail when you're presenting the items at the end? just so that we can see how it looks on a hanger all in one shot. I appreciate your outfits that you put together also and I think you used to style items with more than one outfit previously? but I completely understand that would've been more time consuming for you :)
Hi Lizzy, I just want to say that a lot of high end brands don't line their wool/cashmere coats e.g. Max Mara because it's actually warmer to not line them, the unlined coat keeps the warmth in better!
I recently ordered the boss boots and the cashmere crew from Everlane. It was my first purchase from them and I am blown away. Both items are beautifully made, super super flattering, and perfectly classic. Can't wait to order more!!
Ahhh yes I think it's an amazing brand which I am so excited to have more pieces from! Xx
You could get Joseph coat on sale. Some are on sales from 2,200 pound to 900 pound. That's massive discount. I love coat. It makes one looks so elegant and classy, and well put together.
Where is the black blouse in the beginning from?? So nice!!
Topshop but sadly sold out! xx
My God, WHEN will you finally reach 100k?! I can not believe how such a great channel with all of the great content you create has not 1 mil subs!
Hahhaaha thanks so much! Sure it will happen one day but honestly I am happy with all of you just as it is! xxx
Lizzy, where is the black shirt you're wearing in the video from? Loved it!
lizzy! absolute babe of a video! loving your content atm! xox
The Joseph coat’s shape is just amazing, but on camera it looks white and I can not stop thinking about doctors coat.
& Other Stories is a bit too big in shoulders - they hang and not in a cool way but in a “it’s one size too big” way.
Top-Shop one is really fun, and I love the color. And the American coat is also cute. ASOS looks good on you.
Hi Lizzie! Lovelovelove your testing videos. Just wondering, would you test winter waterproof coats, and also waterproof boots, please?... Pretty please?. I'm very positive you would find the ones that don't look hideous. Would really want to know your recommendations about it. ❤❤❤
Hi! Thank you so much! I definitely want to start working on some really practical winter ones, but as you say in a way that will suit my style so I won't end up hating the video! haha! keep your eyes peeled! xx
Lizzy Hadfield Hip Hip Hooray!!. I'm looking forward to watch the video! Super excited! ❤❤❤
It's so obvious that higher the price better the quality, isn't it ! Luv your styling as always!
Thank you so much! xx
Testing Sweaters will be great, also hoping for a TB faux fur coats!
Can you share where your knit is from? The black one you’re wearing towards the end of the video?
Wow I can't believe you bought a 10 in the Stories coat, I think I tried on an eight once and felt like a two year old wearing her mums coat. And I'm sure we're the same size and maybe a 1 inch difference in height?
I want a coat collection so bad, partly inspired by Korean dramas and how they always wearing different interesting coats in every scene. Also with the UK weather and how i barely take off my coats and jackets anyway, might as well start seeing coats as similar to t-shirts, something to have in a variety of colours.
I feel the same, but I do think it's because & other stories can be oversized sometimes, and Lizzy perhaps prefers the oversized fit?
, even the size 8 of the coat she got was oversized, and I have to wear size 10 in most normal jackets/coats because I have wide shoulders. Even their camel coat that's not meant to be oversized, I had to get an 8.
Hey Lizzy, what is that black candle behind you if I may ask?
Loved this one, considering a Joseph coat. Would love a down coat testing basics.
I have been thinking about it - they're not really suited to my personal style but I know they're such a practical choice for everyone. Got to find a way to do it in a way I will enjoy! xx
+Lizzy Hadfield (Shot From The Street) yes And I suppose having 5 of them would be a lot too especially if not your style.
Well, here I am, with my order confirmation from Everlane - about an hour after I finished watching this video :-) :-) :-)
YAY! xx
Hi Lizzy. Thanks for another great review. Can you tell me what you mean when you talk about poppers on coats that you don’t like? That’s a term I’m not familiar with in the US.
You're welcome - like on this one: www.topshop.com/en/tsuk/product/clothing-427/jackets-coats-2390889/checked-duster-coat-7187655?bi=0&ps=20 xx
Great video! I would love to see you test out leather jackets! xx
I would class these as more autumn coats as when the weather gets cold then these won't keep you warm. I feel like winter coats are puffer/ parka coats as these offer more warmth, or do I just feel the cold more than others???
Adell Baker, it depends on where you live, and how you dress. If you wear layers, and it's not raining, this is fine. Different occasions, different coats. This gives you options.
I will wear coats like this throughout the winter but with more layers underneath, and if it gets to snowing levels of cold then go for some faux fur. I will do a video with some more practical pieces though! xx
Lizzy Hadfield Thanks for taking the time to respond.
I love the coats you picked, but because I'm always like a block of ice so I tend to wear more warmer and thicker coats. I've never thought about adding more layers below the coats as I only ever throw on a jumper then coat.
It will be lovely to see a video on faux fur coats I always enjoy watching the testing basics series ☺️.
Nubianette that's totally true, I live in the Uk and I feel the cold quite easily so I always find myself reaching for the bigger and thicker winter coats. The options in this video are great and I will keep them in mind when the weather gets a bit more mild 😊
I was thinking this earlier! I adore nothing more than wearing dusters etc - but I cannot cope with the cold and nothing but puffer/Parker’s do me justice in winter
Sorry if someone asked already but where is the black sweater/cardigan in the outro from? 😊😊😊 Looks amazing
Great video Lizzy! I appreciate so much your testing basics, they're always so useful and inspiring! ... That being said I have a question for you or for anyone that owns the famous &other stories number you featured in last year's coats testing basics: do you think the length of that coat is right for someone who is like 5,5 feet tall? I'm really tempted but I don't want to be drowning in fabric as you (wisely) said...
Hey hey! OOo so it's a little shorter than the Stories and ASOS one in this video, so saying you're three inches shorter than me I would guess it would come up a similar length as those two do on me. It's a similar length to the Joseph one! Hope that helps xx
Thank you so much for your answer! :) I like that length on you so I'll give it a go! XX from Italy
I LOVE an expensive coat. Makes you feel so chic.
Thank you! xx
Does the beautiful Joseph coat, being white and unlined leaves any fluff on your darker colors?
Ooo this is a good point that I overlooked, no it doesn't at all! x
love you in the joseph coat, really reminds me of maid in manhattan! haha
Where is the cardigan that you're wearing in the end section from, so lush? loved this video lizzy, cannot get over how lush your style is and the way you put clothes together is just mind-blowing!xxx
It's from & other stories - I think it's sold out though
Spray "Scotch Guard" on the Joseph coat to protect it
could you asap do wool trousers? i need some for a trip to stockholm !!
Ohhhh so as you need this quick & Other Stories have some amazing ones, I am always on the look out for a good pair too. Try Aritzia too, they are so hard to find a nice fitting pair of though! xx
Where is that gorgeous black top from?
Loved the Everlane! It was just so Old Hollywood Classic, Doris Day-Grace Kelly-Hitchcock, and I really loved the hue of camel, at least on my computer screen. I totally loved it on you, too. I feel like it elevated you in a very non-edgy, not trying way. If I could afford any of them, that would be my pick for me and on you.
PS I will say this though, the pockets seem a little high on it. Did you find them awkward?
I enjoyed this video but I think that all those coats made from almost only acrlyic/polyester/plastic can let you stay warm in cold winters :( would prefer a video with affordable warm jackets!
Will get working on a video with some really practical pieces for the New Year! xx
Hi Lizzy: Your Everlane coat is classified as a car coat length, more handy for driving and shopping about town.
Favorite vlogger weekend time! Yay :) where is your sheer top from at the beginning of the video? So stylish and pretty for a holiday party :-)
It's topshop but sadly it sold out! xx
I have enough coats... but now I need more!
i don't know if it's just me but you sometimes remind me of Bridget Jones, love your videos and style xx
Hahahahaha i'll take that! xx
I don’t know where you live but that is what I call autumn jackets 👍
When you like the most expensive coat the best...sod's law.... :) It looks beautiful on you.
Hi Lizzy, I'm just wondering (and maybe you've already addressed this somewhere), do you buy and keep every single item that you test? i think it's a great idea you've put together for viewers, but wonder how you sustain doing these videos if you have to go out and get all these items, especially the high end ones! I hope this doesn't come across wrong. I'm genuinely curious that's all. Thanks so much!!
Hello! Yesss, sometimes I am sent pieces (as I mention here) but mostly I buy it all. I try to keep everything for six months so I can do an updated review on the pieces I have gone on to wear a lot, and then sell some of them on. xxx
Would you consider doing an apartment tour? I love your living area but I want to see kitchen, bedroom and bath.
Nevermind, I found some videos :)
I don't know if you'll see this comment but have you seen that a youtube account called 'Nancy Hassler' has taken your celine belt bag video and posted it as if it is theirs. I clicked on it because I thought it would be a real review. And they are using your video to promote a bag selling website. It's been up for over a year, seems dodgey.
Hey! Thanks for letting me know, I have seen it and reported it ages ago, how bloody annoying! xx
And other stories coats are consistently huuuuuuuge. I'm a US size 10 but I buy their coats in a US size 4
Where is your top from?
It's Topshop but sadly sold out! x
Lizzy Hadfield Thanks! It's a lovely top :)
Great video! Always love watching UK vloggers
Are those clothes sponsored. If so, you would need to indicate that or it's illegal.
#Coats 😁
I’ve seen the comments requesting you to review Everlane, not just on your channel, but on various channels. They were so determined and always the same, even mentioning shipping etc., that I would not be surprised if they’re paid or seeded by Everlane. Very suspicious.
