long victorian style coats

i just love this coat SJP is wearing below. i can see it easily being incorporated into a muslimah's look with maybe a longer & looser version of the dress she is wearing below.

it reminds me of the lush and very long victorian coats of olde - a time when women covered as much as muslim women do now. kinda like this one here by j. peterman:

and here is another more modernised version in white (also easily fits in with islamic wear):

some of these remind me somewhat of the jilbabs available - but to be honest - a lot of the button up jilbabs out there for sale are extremely ugly and remind me of janitor wear. this style of coat is a lot cuter and fresh looking.

whats your take on the long coat? would you wear them? and if so - what with?
