Six of the Best Parkas
The season's essential coat references the Sixties mod vibe, but you don't need pointy shoes and pudding-bowl hair for it to work this time round. The beauty of the 2006 parka is that you can wear it anywhere: with jeans to the football, with slinky shift to Christmas parties, with a tailored trouser and tunic to the office... there's just one rule: wear it long otherwise it takes on a vague whiff of anorak, and you definitely don't want that.This feature was published in November 2006.
