PETITE COATS & JACKETS

Dorothy Perkins has a great range of women's petite coats. Explore designs that are perfect for smaller proportions, such as smart, single-breasted designs in striking forest green, or classic wrap coats in versatile black and camel. Sometimes you just need an easy, throw-on piece. Styles that are cropped to the waist are a great choice for petite frames: think a classic black faux leather biker to pair with mom-style jeans. Alternatively, lightweight cotton and denim petite jackets are ideal for warmer weather. Go for classic khaki green as a striking alternative to black. Blazers, too, are a hero piece. A single-breasted shape is a petite working wardrobe must-have with off-duty versatility. Team yours with a maxi smock dress for a casual look or wear it to the office with flats. An evening out calls for a special coat. Dorothy Perkins has a range of wrap coats in an array of colours, all equipped with a belt to nip you in at the waist for a flattering look that doesn't swamp your figure. Neat lapel collars and skirted hems are smart touches that work just as well for the office. Go for a style with a sleek funnel neck for a statement look that's extra warm, too. When it comes to choosing petite winter coats, It's not all about block colour – smaller frames can easily pull off a bold print. Striking dogtooth is an enduring, eye-catching pattern. Neatly cinched at the waist, these shorter designs look great paired with smart black trousers or floaty midi skirts. And checks are a trend that always comes back around. Pair yours with skinny jeans and black ankle boots to really allow the print to shine.
