‘Timeless’ £60 Primark coat ‘almost identical’ to £5,700 designer version

Primark is selling a “timeless” £60 coat that closely resembles a £5, 770 designer alternative. For those looking for a chic designer coat, The Row’s Malika Wool-Blend Coat could make a great option. With its notched lapels, tie fastening and oversized fit, the Italian-made garment oozes luxury.

However, given its £5k price tag, it’s out of reach for many. Thankfully, Primark offers a much less expensive alternative that also screams luxury without the high price.

Shoppers looking for a double-breasted coat are sure to love Primark’s The Edit Belted Longline Coat. Available for £60, the high street retailer’s option is a fraction of the cost of The Row’s coat.

Similarly to the designer brand, Primark’s coat features notched lapels and a tie fastening. Additionally, it comes in shades “Camel” and “Black,” and has a relaxed fit and slip pockets.

Primark’s description reads: “Cosy up in this belted longline coat when the temperatures drop. Featuring within The Edit collection, which is filled with timeless styles and elevated wardrobe essentials, this coat showcases a classic look that’s always in fashion.

The long length provides plenty of coverage, and the relaxed fit allows you to layer up underneath it. “While the composition varies depending on the colour you select, Primark’s ‘ camel ‘ coat is 51% wool, 46% polyester, 1% acrylic, 1% nylon, and 1% viscose.

Meanwhile, the product description for the designer coat says:” The Row continues to excel in offering understated outerwear, exemplified by the perfectly clean-lined Malika coat. Italian-crafted in a thick wool blend, the double-breasted piece is cinched at the waist with a matching belt, allowing you to take control over its oversized shape and lend it a dose of definition. “

The Row’s coat is 78% wool, meaning it has a higher wool content than Primark’s offering. It’s likely to be well-known among those who enjoy the brand’s reputation for precise detailing and high-quality fabrics. Established in 2006 by Ashley Olsen and Mary-Kate Olsen, The Row has long been the choice of celebrities and ‘ it girls’.

Nonetheless, Primark’s elegant coat could be just the ticket for shoppers looking for a similar style at a more affordable price point. Available to Click and Collect from the retailer’s website, the coat is available in sizes XS to XL.
