BBC show Luther: How do I get that look? Style breakdown.

[APS]

To anyone who has seen Luther, starring Idris Elba, perhaps even an esteemed Dappered columnist what is the key to his look? Specifically whats the style of overcoat that he rocks? And what kind of pants does he wear, I'm not what fabric they are etc...


I'm a rookie at the style game and I'd appreciate any and all input.

Seems like a brown plaid wool overcoat. I couldn't find a plaid one, but BR have a brown wool overcoat:

He then has a tweed blazer on under that, try this:

On the bottom he wears navy cotton chinos.

Props to APS for mentioning this show. I took a chance on it on Netflix and love it. He also rocks a red tie.


Can't wait for season 3.
