It is believed that the history of a coat-robe goes back to the origins of oriental fashion, where in ancient times a loose long robe with a belt was used in everyday life, and its more expensive options, sewn from silk and decorated with hand embroidery, were a luxury item. Medieval Europeans appreciated oriental wisdom: since dampness and cold reigned in unheated castles almost all year round, bathrobes were very out of place.

Today, a coat-dressing gown does not recall much of its distant prototype, although, as it was once in the Middle Ages, it is intended to protect us from adverse weather conditions. As a rule, this coat is straight cut, long or shortened, most often without buttons, but certainly with a belt. The collar of such a coat can be the most diverse: voluminous, curly, or even absent altogether!

Not the last role in the popularization of this style was played by the famous fashion house Max Mara. His elegant camel-colored coat has become iconic for a long time.

I must admit that such a style will be favored by tall thin people, because it is on them that all the advantages of the silhouette will be revealed. But this in no case does not mean that everyone else will have to abandon the coveted new thing! Just consider a few nuances.

If you are short, do not choose maxi length models. The length just above the knee is more suitable for you. By the way, the V-neckline is very handy for you, because it visually extends the silhouette.

For pluses, this style is perfect, but again, the length should be chosen above the knee.Please note, if you have a figure like Apple, then you can use a little stylistic trick: move the waist line a little higher to the chest or, which also looks very cool, tie a belt on the side.

Oddly enough, such a style does not obligate stylistically to anything: its apparent negligence does not conflict even with a strict business style. Therefore, we can safely say that a coat-robe will fit into any wardrobe.

A variety of photos on the Internet allows you to evaluate how spectacular a coat coat looks like with almost summer shoes: ballet shoes, stiletto heels, even sandals! But, alas, in our latitudes such sets can only admire virtually. However, there is nothing to worry about here, because with ankle boots and boots, a coat-coat looks no worse.
