If it's not big bows, it's big collars!
{Er, you'd tell me if I was becoming way too predictable, right?}
It's no surprise that I instantly loved the collection of detailed yet simple spring coats from Montreal-based fashion line Soia & Kyo, found via Spray Glue. This Lotta-S asymmetrical trench ($265) is my absolute favorite. Clean lines, slightly quirky, pretty much perfect.

I love this whole big collar craze that is happening. Soia is a great company.

I can't get enough big collars and neck ruffles.
You'll like their winter coats as well then. I have 2 winter coats by soia&kyo; one black wool one that is similar to the photo you posted and a short brown tweed with big buttons and brown velvet elbow pads. Both complete with big collars. I love them!
I have a ridiculously awesomely high-collared jacket I got in Italy in December. It was way expensive (damn Euro), but so worth it. The collar is clutch on windy days. *sigh*
I own a fantastic S&K winter coat with the same neckline. It's so flattering, warm and comfortable. I bought it in an end of season sale for 200.00 - it was a steal.
this dress is too cute!
The collar on that coat is to die for!
Big bows, big collars, they're both cute. What's not to like?
as the eighties went, bigger = better.
viva la big-things.
-jae, SOS
I can see why you like it, it is pretty much perfect!
Beautiful coat. I love it.
A true beaut!
Soia & Kyo is sold at Marshalls and Filene's Basement--very discounted. There are a lot of trenches there now.
i adore soia & kyo and big collars (and bows, of course)!
so beautiful :)
oh, odilean, i believe you have just inspired me to get to filene's asap!
wow thats so gorgoeus. love it=) also thanks for taking a picture of laurens jacket, i fell in love with it when i was watching the hills.
Your blog and that coat are both so cute!
there was a sweater-coat offered by anthropologie last year (the august catalogue featured it) that was very like this. Same sort of collar, and same asymmetric button placket. I actually copied it for myself. Nice to see this look has some staying power, because I LOVE my coat.
this is stunning. great find. xo
I love coats with unusual necklines and details, I stumbled on the website earlier today!
I think it's even sexier if a woman covers up more with a collar like this one than if she's pulling out the typical wrap or button-up coat. Makes me think of this woman I saw at an art show recently in a big collared-dress. I went up to her and said how much I loved her outfit and her response? "wow! I think I looked so frumpy tonight but you're the 3rd person to say that!"
This trench is amazing.
This trench is amazing.
Just wanted to say thanks for this post - I just ordered this trench - it was impossible to resist! Although thanks to other readers for the Filene's Basement tip too - will check them out as well.
Love your blog - just returned from a visit to DC and thought of you although I didn't have time to check out all the fabulous shopping tips - another reason to return :)
