This breathtaking and unbelievable French couture made royal purple coat will make any woman light up a room. The metallic gold embroidery adds the perfect amount of shimmer to the luxurious silk-velvet. I love the 3-dimensional Art Nouveau bullion floral motif throughout. The garment has gorgeous 3/4-length bell sleeves and is designed to be left open. Extravagant garments from the 1920's are difficult to find, especially in unique colors! The easy-to-wear silhouette embodies the flapper's "party till dawn" attitude while the opulent fabrics whisper "wealth and status." The mark of a truly fashionable garment is that it remains stylish and timeless 90 years later, as does this sumptuous couture treasure. The pictures say it all.

This early 1920's evening coat is in excellent condition with no discoloration, stains or holes. The inside is has been professionally re-lined. I wouldn't be surprised if this creation was by a famous French designer, as it has all the hallmarks of an Haute-Couture piece from this era. An investment piece that will increase in value.
