Explanation:
Ein Hüllenmantel ist meist verschlusslos bzw. hat höchstens einen Knopf/eine Schnalle und ist sehr weit geschnitten (oversized/loose-fitting), eben nur eine "Hülle"
Hüllenmantel:
Der Hüllenmantel hat jetzt schon Must-have-Potenzial. Meist ohne Verschluss, oft kragenlos, einfach schön. Großräumig Voluminös, kastig, oft mit Stand.
