Dorothy Perkins continues to surprise and delight with their ever reliable, and increasingly good looking, Winter coats for women. This Bow Neck coat is newly added to their website in this great striking red shade, making it a real statement item that’s entirely wearable too.

Once again, the use of an A-line skirt shape on coats is proving a hit, and gives this a great, 60s inspired shape that endures beyond fashion remits. The pussybow’s popularity hasn’t been missed out on, and it looks great here, though its often hard to carry off in heavier fabrics.

This little Winter gem is available now for a great price of £75.

Forties tailoring styles have been big in recent dress design, seemingly revived to perfection by top name designer Roland Mouret. His groundbreaking Galaxy dress has been much imitated, and now his newest hitter, the Pigalle dress is being copied with plenty of retro style by the high street.

This Dorothy Perkins take on the dress is a great thing for us mere mortals, with a decidedly smaller price tag, but a dollop of all the best parts of the look. The sculpted bodice and square neck are really flattering details to a well cut, body hugging dress that has all the structured glam of the 1940s.

It’s available from Dorothy Perkins now for £35.
