There isn’t a confirmed mid-length coat directly associated with Louis Wain himself in the movie “The Electrical Life of Louis Wain”. The movie focuses more on his personal life and artistic journey. We also have The Deuce S03 Tommy Longo Coat.

However, the movie does capture the essence of the Victorian era, where mid-length coats were quite common. Here are some examples of mid-length coats from that period:

Peacoats are double-breasted coats that were originally designed for sailors. They are often made of wool and fall to the hips or thighs.
A frock coat is a style of formal coat featuring a tight waist and a flared skirt that falls to the knee or mid-thigh.

Changes and Specifics:

Materials: For winter coats, heavier wools were utilized; for spring and fall, lighter textiles were used. Richer males were observed wearing the opulent option of cashmere.
Buttons: Decorative buttons gave the piece charm.

Pockets: Patch pockets were widely used, offering a casual yet practical touch. Some coats included hidden pockets for valuables.
Collars: Lapel collars were most common, but some frock coats sported velvet collars for a touch of formality.

Types of Mid-Length Coats:

Covert Coat: A single-breasted coat with a hidden button closure for a streamlined look. Often made from a water-resistant woolen fabric called covert cloth.
