So I was looking in the my coat closet at home and discovered a Pendleton knee length wool coat. I tried it on and for once in my life it fit me. that's the good news. Now for the potentially bad news. It turns out this is my grandmother's coat. In clearer light, the wool appears to be a shade between purple and blue. It's not clearly purple, but when I put it up against my navy blazer, it's definitely closer to purple. Also, the buttons are a lighter shade of purple, but I figure those are easily changeable
My question is this: if you had a coat that fit you wonderfully, but happened to be some kind of weird purply-blue color, would it be so obvious that this is a women's coat that you wouldn't wear it?
