Twirl into any colder season with this roomy swing coat - a classic that the infamous Mrs Maisel would wear ...

 

Please note: the Raspberry Red version of this coat has sold out last year and showcases the full design you are ordering.

 

The coat is made of Oeko Tex certified, heavy weight and beautifully draping, pure Virgin Wool fabric in a variety of vintage-like shades (Lining color chosen accordingly or in a contrasting shade on request). Most photos show the coat with a petticoat underneath to showcase the volume. Faux fur not included.

 

The coat is available with long (pictured) or 3/4 length Dolman sleeves- a perfect and authentic look for long gloves. It features wide, pointy cuffs, a midcentury style panel trapeze back with decorative top- stitching and a shoulder yoke design front and back.

 

Fully lined in Rayon. Invisibly hand-sewn hem and details all-over. The coat closes with two big, metal press buttons that are hidden under two decorative self buttons for a clean look (naturally overlapping front due to fabric weight). Two working front pockets. Decorative front bows. 

 

Classic midi length (see sizing table) or custom length (Free of charge 0,00CHF).

Embrace the vintage vibes by pairing the swing coat with a beautiful dress layered with a cardigan. Add a vintage scarf, sunglasses and a beret for the ultimate Parisian look.

 

For a more relaxed yet elegant look (casual elegance), wear the swing coat with high-waisted wide-leg or straight-leg trousers and a simple blouse. Layer on a beautiful pearl necklace and complete the ensemble with loafers or low-heeled pumps for a comfortable and sophisticated outfit.

 

For a more sophisticated look, add a big faux fur collar or shawl, a vintage hat, classic bag and long gloves that accentuate the wide, pointy cuffs - the epitome of midcentury, New Look inspired elegance.
