The Nehru coat is a timeless option for women looking for an elegant and understated outfit for weddings and formal occasions. Its clean lines and mandarin collar create a polished look that feels appropriate for mother of the bride or groom, wedding guests, and events such as the races, the opera or the theatre.
It is a piece that brings quiet confidence to an outfit, without feeling overworked or overly formal.
A flattering and easy-to-wear silhouette
The straight, tailored cut of the Nehru coat makes it a flattering choice for a wide range of shapes. It offers structure while remaining comfortable, allowing it to be worn throughout the day with ease.
As with all Shibumi designs, it is created with versatility in mind, offering a style that works across ages, occasions and personal preferences, with standard sizing from UK 6-26 and a made to measure option available.
Silk and cashmere fabrics to suit every occasion
The Nehru coat is available in a considered selection of fabrics, including plain raw silk, embroidered silk and cashmere. Each fabric brings a slightly different character to the coat, from understated finishes to more detailed designs with intricate embroidery.
This allows you to choose a piece that reflects both the occasion and how you want to wear it.
Style it as a complete outfit
The Nehru coat pairs naturally with our Vera Dress and Sophia Dress, creating a clean and balanced silhouette that works particularly well for weddings and formal occasions.
It can also be worn with our Silk Cigarette Trousers for a more relaxed look, making it a versatile piece that adapts easily to different settings.

If you are exploring different silhouettes, you may also wish to view the Lyra Coat for a softer A-line shape, or the Devi Coat for an alternative structured style.
Each coat offers a different feel, while maintaining the same focus on flattering cuts, beautiful fabrics and timeless design.
Designed to be worn beyond the occasion
Although ideal for weddings and formal events, the Nehru coat is not limited to occasionwear. It can be styled more casually and worn throughout the year, making it a piece that fits naturally into your wardrobe.
This balance of elegance and practicality is what defines the collection, offering something you can return to time and time again.
