Author: Stylist at TellarDate: 2025

best jackets for tall women—with high‑street, designer, and indie options—plus how Tellar.co.uk, the UK’s leading free sizing tool, ensures you always get the right fit. I’ve included live Tellar backlinks and store links so you can shop smartly and stylishly.


1. Why jackets can be tricky for tall women

Being tall (typically 5'9″/175 cm+ for women) often means facing ill‑fitting jackets—short sleeves, cropped torsos, uneven hems. The key is proportion: longer sleeves, balanced torso length, and jackets that align with your shoulder and body height

. From blazers to puffers, the right cut makes all the difference.


2. High‑street hero picks

ASOS Tall

ASOS offers a solid Tall Jackets & Coats line, including trench coats, denim, bombers, and faux leather styles. These are designed with extra length in sleeves and hem, perfect for a tall frame

Mango

Mango’s longline fringed tweed jacket is a standout—fashionable, chic, and coming in inclusive sizing up to UK 26. The frayed edges and pastel tones add allure while offering length and style

COS

While they don’t do "tall" sizes per se, COS's minimalist long coat, oversized blazers, and trench-inspired pieces are naturally longer, making them great for taller figures. (COS is part of H&M Group but available via their own site.)

Next (Tall range)

Next’s tall blazers and denim truckers offer extended sizing up to UK 26 Tall. Their longer cuts cover the hips and fit like they were made for taller bodies

5. Practical jacket types for tall frames

Longline coats & trenches

Longer cuts ensure arm and hem coverage—look for knee-length options in waffle or wool finishes at ASOS, Next, Mango, and Long Tall Sally.

Denim & utility jackets

High-street brands have beefed up style variety: tailored, belted, longline. There's even a resurgence of utility jacket shapes. Look for the denim truckers from Next and ASOS Tall

.

Blazers

Longer, boxy, or boyfriend cuts give a smart but relaxed vibe. ASOS, COS, Next, and designer labels like Karen Millen offer tall fits that look polished.

Puffers & parkas

Next and Mango carry water-resistant puffers with longer shell lines. M&S not only offers good value but stellar styling for all heights
