Oopera is a women's coat and clothing label that began in New York's Fashion District and is now based in Los Angeles. It is best known for reversible coats with water-repellent finishes, crinkle fabrics that are far less likely to crease, and art coats printed with paintings by Klimt, Monet and van Gogh.

What is Oopera known for?

Reversible coats. Many Oopera styles can be worn either way out, often a print on one side and a solid colour on the other, so one coat gives you two looks. The crinkle styles travel well too, because the fabric tends not to crease.

Where can I buy Oopera in the UK?

You can buy Oopera at OSO Boutique, our independent shop at 14 High Street, Salisbury, and online with UK delivery. Pop in to try a coat on, or call us on 01722 417382 for help with sizing before you order.

How do Oopera coats fit?

Most of the Oopera styles we stock have a relaxed swing or boxy shape, with room for a jumper underneath, so they suit lots of different shapes. If you are between sizes, we're happy to help you choose in the shop or over the phone.

Are Oopera coats waterproof?

Oopera describes its finishes as water-repellent rather than waterproof. A coat should see you through a light shower, but it is not designed for a day in heavy rain. The deep hoods on the reversible styles help on a damp walk into town.

Oopera

Oopera coats are made for real weather and still feel like a treat to put on. Many are reversible, so you get two looks from one coat, and the water-repellent finish should see you through a passing shower. You'll find Oopera in the heart of Salisbury and online.

Start with the reversible hooded coats. Turn one inside out and it becomes a different coat: olive gold that swaps to black, or a grey and gold print that brings the gold forward on the reverse. The hoods are deep and soft. The swing shape leaves room for a chunky knit underneath.

Oopera's crinkle coats are the ones to pack. The fabric has a soft sheen that shifts as you move, and it is far less likely to crease in a suitcase or on the back seat of the car. The shapes are easy, from an open coat with wide lapels to a hip-length jacket with a drawstring waist.

The label began in New York's Fashion District and is now based in Los Angeles. It is also known for its art coats, printed with paintings by Klimt, Monet and van Gogh.

We think these are coats you'll reach for winter after winter. Pop in and try one on, or shop the range online.
