Description

The Coat

A Women’s Black Velvet Frock Coat Built Around Its Outline

Black velvet swallows light. Stand in a room or in front of a camera and every seam, pocket flap and stitch line disappears into the pile. What is left is the outline: the shoulder, the lapel, the waist and the hem. If the outline is wrong, there is nothing else to look at.

This women’s black velvet frock coat is our own screen-inspired version of the Twelfth Doctor’s black velvet frock coat in Doctor Who, built around that fact: wide peak lapels, three buttons, no outside pockets to break the line, and a knee-length frock coat hem. It is cut to your measurements with a canvas front and fitted first in a free test coat.

Free Test Coat

In Black Velvet, the Fitting Is the Design

With no pockets, piping or contrast to carry it, a black velvet frock coat depends on where the shoulder sits, where the waist is drawn in and where the hem falls. Those three things are settled in the cotton test coat, made to your measurements, before the velvet is cut.

The Outline

What Shapes a Black Velvet Frock Coat

Wide peak lapels3.5 to 5 inches wide, pointing up toward the shoulder, so the lapel still reads in black.
No outside pocketsNothing on the front to break the long line from lapel to hem.
Three buttonsA clean single-breasted front, with black horn buttons hand-stitched and reinforced.
Knee-length hemThe frock coat length, straight across, with a center vent behind.

Inside

The Lining Is Where Black Velvet Gets Its Color

Interior of a women's black velvet frock coat with a bright blue satin lining and black velvet facings, interior view

The coat in the photos is lined in bright blue satin, which shows only when the coat opens. That is the one place a black velvet coat can carry color without losing its outline. Choose the lining in the selector: black for a coat that stays black, or a color for a flash when you move.

Inside there are two pockets, so your phone and keys stay off the front of the coat.


Why a Frock Coat

A Women’s Frock Coat in Velvet, Not Wool

A black frock coat in wool is formal and sharp. In velvet, the same cut becomes softer and richer, with a depth wool cannot give. It works for the screen-inspired look over a black shirt and trousers, and just as well over a long dress at an evening event, where a short black velvet coat would stop at the wrong place.

Want something else? A black double-breasted frock coat can be requested in the comment box on the measurement form. For a velvet frock coat in another color, other velvets are in the selector; for a shorter velvet coat, see our women’s navy velvet coat; for a frock coat in wool, see our women’s Victorian frock coat.

Questions & Answers

Questions About the Women’s Black Velvet Frock Coat

Q. Is this the 12th Doctor’s black velvet frock coat from Doctor Who?
A. No, it is our own screen-inspired women’s version, with inspiration taken from the Twelfth Doctor. It is not official or licensed.
Q. Why are there no outside pockets?
A. So nothing breaks the line of the coat. In black velvet the outline is what people see. There are two inside pockets.
Q. What lining does it come with?
A. You choose it in the selector. The photos show a bright blue satin lining; black keeps the coat all black.
Q. Is it double-breasted?
A. No, it is single-breasted with three buttons. A double-breasted front can be requested in the comment box on the measurement form.
Q. How long is it?
A. Knee length, the classic frock coat length. Enter another length on the measurement form if you want it longer.
Q. Does velvet crush?
A. Velvet pile flattens where a coat is too tight or folded, which is why the fit is checked in the test coat. Hang it with space around it and steam rather than press.
Q. How does the free test coat work?
A. We make the coat in cotton to your measurements, you try it at home and tell us any change, and then we cut the velvet. The test coat is yours to keep.
Q. How long does it take?
A. The test coat takes 3 to 4 weeks to make and arrives 5 to 10 days after dispatch. The final coat takes another 3 to 4 weeks and arrives 5 to 10 days after dispatch, so order as early as you can before you need it.
Q. Can I change details, such as the length?
A. Yes, enter the length you want on the measurement form and write any other change in its comment box, such as sleeve length or pocket style. For anything else, use the Ask a question about this piece form below Add to Cart.
Q. How do I care for it?
A. Dry clean only, and not often. Brush the pile gently in one direction and keep it on a wide hanger.
