A nice Ski Jacket
A lovely coat in a nice length. Only downside I can think of is that it doesn't have air vents under the arms. I missed this when getting warm while skiing. Otherwise great.

Stylish & practical jacket
I bought this jacket for my ski trip to Andorra. It was really practical with lots of zip pockets. Only downside is I would say it's probably not as warm as I might have liked. It was very warm when we were skiing so I didn't have any problems, but for very cold weather it might not be the best jacket.

Post-holiday Update!
So, this is the second review from me (first one was based on just trying it on at home...)
I've since taken the jacket up the mountain, during a reasonably cold/windy half term trip to Val di Sol and wanted to share how it performed.
Functionally, it performed well. The pockets/zips/hood all delivered as expected and the design is solid. Lots of 'give' in the material, it was really comfortable to ski in (and all the faffing that goes with skiing etc)
Heat-wise, you need to really look at the weather and think about what you're putting on underneath it. The weather was always sunny but the wind whipped up occasionally and the temperature was usually around -3c. I'm used to a Killy jacket, with lots of down and warmth in it. So I had to add a good few layers to get warm. This is probably more of a March/April jacket. I went to Kühtai in January and it was -12c. There is no way this jacket would've been able to hack it.
If I had one gripe about the jacket, it would be the design around the hood fastener. When you've done the zip all the way up and fastened the hood poppers so they don't flap when you're skiing a bit faster, the hood flap material doesn't sit well on top of the zip. It was a bit frustrating. It was made a bit less comfortable too, because it was cold enough to need a neck gator. It would be really easy to correct this. It's a small gripe, in the grand scheme of things.
All in all, the jacket looked great and performed well. I would heartily recommend it!

Practical warm and stylish
Love this jacket. Bought to wear in iceland against the elements. But now is my go to jacket to stay warm and dry on the school run too. Got all the bits you need to be a ski jacket too, once I get round to that. Very well made and excellent finishing

Flattering, warm ski jacket
I bought my jacket from sweatty Betty, because it has s actually designed to show off a woman's waist...without distorting any other bits if your figure! I was worried it was more a fashion jacket than a bona fide ski jacket. How wrong I was!! Light weight, yet warm, loads of pockets, beautiful shape and fun removable faux fur on hood. Totally waterproof...the perfectt ski jacket!

Fantastic jacket
I bought his jacket, not entirely sure it would fit. I'm 5ft 11, a size 16 and very fit but SB stuff usually comes up a bit short on me (they don't do stuff in longer lengths, which is a shame for us leggy girls....).
Any hoo, I ordered it in the sale thinking I could always return it if it didn't fit and - cue the choir - it fitted! It's a nice snug fit on me, which is exactly what I was hoping the fit would be (who wants lots of baggy shell material flapping around them when they ski?). And it is long enough on the body to cover my derrière. Lots of pockets and a very clever hood system (which means you can shorten the fur trimming to fit around your neck) means it's not just a feat of fashion - it's functionally very good too.
I am yet to piste test it but it's going up the mountain next week so we'll see if it's warm enough. I reckon with a solid base layer, it'll get you through most of the week. I don't think it's build for the double minus days but who knows?

Cute and Comfortable!
Got a lot of compliments on this jacket! I ordered it to be more fitted, and with the stretch, it still allows me to fit an extra layer beneath for a cold day skiing!

Everything in one sexy jacket
This jacket is perfect! All the ski linings, pockets, and adjustments you could ever want, hood fits over helmet, and it's waterproof and warm. Best of all, the fit is so flattering and the fur is so pretty that I'll be using it for my regular winter jacket, too. Worth every penny!

Good looking but not as warm as it should ❄️
Perfect if you live in London like on sea level. If you actually go skiing in bad weather whit it, expect to be chilly as the heat retention is light to medium (it’s waterproof however).
