This coat is described as a 'throw-on' - I suspect because it's the first thing you'll grab on your way out of the door to some event at which you really must express your disapproval, for example at a proposed bypass or the latest filth to flicker across our TV screens. Older readers, do you remember Mary Whitehouse, guardian of the nation's viewing habits, whose rigid hair, unbending attitude and even tighter sphincter bespoke stubborn, inflexible rectitude? Yeah, that.
Nothing says 'no' quite like this does: those scowling pockets are tight-lipped and clearly find you morally reprehensible. The sloping shoulders and dreary pattern are likewise an essay in reproach. £100 for no fun at all.
Topshop, for God's sake, cheer up.
