Every so often, an item comes along that's so good that not only do we rush to buy it, but celebrities do too—and it's even better when that piece just so happens to be from one of our favourite high-street brands. So you can imagine the collective joy that enveloped the Who What Wear office when we spotted a well-dressed celebrity in a piece from Mango (that's still in stock).
Selena Gomez wears a Mango coat with a striped knit, wide-leg jeans and black ankle boots.
Should you be looking for the perfect new winter coat (who isn't?), consider this a sign. Selena Gomez has just been pictured in a Mango coat so covetable that it ticks all of our boxes. Affordable? It's on the pricer end of high street but still a fraction of the cost of a designer coat, especially for wool. Practical? Of course—not only is it a heavy-duty wool coat, but it's also from the brand's premium range, meaning it has the best possible construction. And timeless? Absolutely, menswear-inspired tailoring might be a key trend that we're heavily buying into right now, but it's still a classic silhouette that never ages. All good signs that we're looking at the next big It coat.
This Mango tailored wool coat is the latest in a very a very long line of recent celebrity wears for the brand. Katie Holmes was spotted in Mango jeans, Sienna Miller wore a Mango mini to Glastonbury, and both were seen in the same Mango coat as Alexa Chung last winter, making it an instant best seller and immediately convincing us that Mango should be our go-to for premium-looking, budget-friendly coats.
While this versatile coat is currently available in two colours, black or Gomez's charcoal grey, I would advise you move quickly if you want to get your hands on it. It's not every day you come across a polished coat that goes with everything from eveningwear to jeans and a T-shirt. Now that the secret's out, it's just a matter of time before it starts to fly off the shelves. Don't say I didn't warn you.
