With the icy cold temperatures upon us, shoppers are on the hunt for the perfect winter coat. H&M is selling a particular style that has been hailed for its "gorgeous" material and "beautiful" look that not only keeps you warm, but elevates your outfit too.

The H&M Double-Breasted Coat is priced at £54.99 and is available in dark beige, black, light beige and grey colour options (with varying sizes available). The coat finishes at the calf and is crafted from woven fabric, tailored with notch lapels, jetted front pockets and buttons at the front.

Overall, the coat has received a rating of 4.1 out of five stars, based on 210 customer reviews. One pleased shopper shared: "This coat is a dream. Made with gorgeous materials, in a beautiful neutral colour, the fabric is heavy and it looks and feels more expensive than it is."

They continued: "After reading reviews I sized down and it's a perfect fit but still with room to move even with a thick hoody underneath. I'm a size M (10-12) 5ft4 and the S not only fit well but is the perfect length for me coming just below the knees. I'll be ordering in black too!"

A second said: "A really beautiful, smart coat that elevates any outfit. For size reference as I know I've seen a lot of reviews about this - I am a curvy size 14 and am normally a medium, but I got a small and it is perfect! Its the perfect thickness too - not to light and not too heavy. I wore it with a jumper too and there was plenty of room."

However, it seems shoppers generally agree on the need to size down. One shopper said: "This is a beautiful coat that looks far more expensive than it is but unfortunately very big on me. I'm size 10-12 petite 5'2"tall so this is pretty long and the pockets come are a little lower. On someone taller it will looking absolutely amazing though. "

They continued: "The brown colour is a bit more dull than in the pics. I have to say that I still love it but had to return mainly because the pockets hang too low. H&M pretty please do this coat in petite sizes!!!"

Elsewhere, ASOS is selling the chuck on formal coat in cream for £45 if you're looking for something slightly cheaper. For a slightly more premium option, New Look has the Grey Tie Waist Funnel Neck Coat for £79.99 which one customer called "striking and well made."
