A Reader Question: Your most used long overcoats?

 A reader question:

Dear Muffy,

I wonder if I may ask the readers a question please.

Now that we're in the firm grip of autumn with winter looming, what are the readers preferences regarding long overcoats?

Personally I have a tweed balmacaan, a Yorkshire tweed covert/paddock overcoat (sans velvet collar) and a black cashmere double breasted long coat which I wear over a suit or blazer and grey slacks on more formal occasions. I recently took my British warm down to the charity shop as I felt that the style was getting a bit dated. (I have excluded my tweed field coats and the like).

Many thanks

Kind regards
