This coat is so utterly fabulous it almost pains me to let it go. To have the opportunity to be able to have a piece of true Haute Couture at this price is just amazing! Made of a wool and silk mix that has a slight raised window panel design that gives it a beautiful boucle texture. It buttons with little metal and enamel buttons and has a combination of a tie belt and elastic worked in at the waist so you get some shape and definition. The collar is perfectly pointed and the two little pockets high on the bodice are just absolutely chic. It is completely lined in silk and the workmanship is perfection - all hand work and hand stitched. I really cannot go on about it enough and you will truly be thrilled when it arrives! Numbered under the tag 3716.2.73 and in excellent, appears unworn condition. Freshly cleaned as all our garments are!
Fully lined in a hand set, fine grade off white silk. Hand finished and constructed. Closes with enamel and metal buttons. Original tie belt. Silk lined hidden buttons along hip seam. Comes with its original fabric swatch from which the fabric was chosen and which was given to the client in case needed for future repairs.
