Chrisette Michele vs Kim Kardashian in Alexander McQueen

Wishing for warmer weather? This is one coat that may make you change your mind! These two celebs have both been spotted wearing this stylish Alexander McQueen Crepe Frock Coat. This versatile coat can be worn simply as a coat over an outfit, but it also works perfectly on its own. The tailoring is impeccable and the McQueen team have captured the elegance and structure flawlessly.

Chrisette Michele was seen at the Universal Music Group 2013 Showcase at Lure Nightclub in Hollywood in February wearing the white version of the frock coat. The Grammy-nominated American R&B singer completed  her look with simple hair and make-up and gold platform pumps.

Kim Kardashian was caught in the black version of the same coat leaving The Today Show in New York in January. The ‘overexposed’ reality star and Kanye West’s girlfriend, opted for a pair of pointed  Jimmy Choo Anouk leather pumps and her signature femme fatale make-up. This coat enhances the silhouette thanks to concealed asymmetric button fastenings and its waterfall-style pleated skirt  looks great on Kim.

I prefer the black version and I think Kim always looks impeccable even during pregnancy! I would like to suggest a few alternatives if you want to re-create this outfit starting with the original Alexander McQueen Crepe Frock Coat which is available in black for £1,995. Other options are this Gareth Pugh crepe dress coat (£1,353.95) and how about finishing off your look, like Kim with some sexy black heels (£488.57). Who do you think wore it better?
