1970s Chestnut Brown and Black Swirl Velvet Long Coat, 40in Bust
Would you just look at this coat?! Handmade in the 1970s, this amazing full length velvet coat has everything you could want. A full skirt which will dramatically billow as you strut down the street, hands in your pockets for a nonchalant devil may care vibe. Huge bell sleeves with massive turn up cuffs for warmth matched with the super wide notched collar for some serious attitude. This is amazing, a true stand out piece. If you buy it get ready to be stopped constantly to be asked where it came from!
