That is why investing in a rain coat that is light and airy – as it can often be raining but still hot during summer – but robustly waterproof is a good idea. Now, buyers may find their perfect option in the Khaki Green Unlined Shower Resistant Rain Coat from New Look, which is available for £39.99.

This coat, which comes in a range of colours such as khaki green, light pink, black, grey and cream, offers a range of options to suit any wardrobe. It comes in sizes UK 6 to 22, too.

Another reviewer wrote: “Light and trendy raincoat, perfect colour. Love!”

Some did slightly disagree and said: “Very pleased with the jacket, as expected. Quite roomy I’m a 12-14, I got a 14 but could have fitted a 12.”

Another wrote: “Pretty good jacket felt like the material could be a bit thicker though.”
