10 Coats Only Old Money Wears (You've Never Heard of #1) King Charles has worn the same double-breasted tweed coat for over thirty-five years — from a house that has never advertised. That's not an accident. In outerwear, the relationship between how famous a name is and how good the coat is runs almost perfectly backwards. This is a countdown of ten coats old money actually wears, ranked by fame. We start with the one everybody already assumes is the answer, and it gets quieter, older and harder to find with every step down — ending at a Paris house with no shop window, no online waiting list, and a shoulder Karl Lagerfeld said he could recognise from a hundred metres away. Covered: Barbour, Crombie, Mackintosh, Lavenham, Cordings, Private White V.C., Grenfell, Sealup, Invertere and Cifonelli. Along the way: the mill that shut thirty years before the brand did, the lady-in-waiting who invented quilted outerwear, the cloth built on a single sentence about a statue, and the British coat house that only exists today because Japan wanted it back.
