there is a really great one in Chapel st in Windsor that does FANTASTIC authentic retro coats...I have two from there I still love, and they are brilliant.
If you want a GREAT coat, go find one that is well loved I never buy my coats new anymore, love them to have life, and they are all unique and you wont see 6 other women in the car park with them on
I actually scored a really great mid-thigh length swing/trench coat from JayJays last year... I only got to wear it once because it never gets cold here but I imagine it would be lovely in a cooler climate. It was really cheap, too - I paid probably $50 for it?
Heavy Red (google them) also does some cute coats - and because they're an American company they're designed to be pretty heavy-duty (ie nice and warm, not flimsy at all!). Their stuff can get a bit exxy (by the time you do currency conversion and international shipping) but the service is great, shipping is fast, and the product itself is so lovely you almost don't want to wear it!! I'm just checking their site now, it appears they've only got a couple of coats at the moment (the 'Sonnet in the Rain' trench is very pretty though), but keep checking back or try eBay to see if you can find some more!!
Oh, and their sizing runs a bit small so order the next size up
