This is a very rich looking vintage evening coat featuring a metallic gold brocade fabric. The fabric is woven with a paisley and foliate pattern in gold, with silver accents, against a deep purple silk background that almost appears black due to the contrast with the gold. I believe that it dates to the 1960s - it looks very much like something that one of the beautiful people would have worn. It did come from a wealthy estate. The fabric looks to me to have probably originated in India or a neighbouring country. The coat has no collar, an open neckline and 3/4 length sleeves that have padded “puff” caps. The coat is lined with a very nice quality pearl white satin fabric. The coat closes with four covered buttons and loops located at the waistline - the skirt is open except for fabric overlap. It is tailored to accent the waist and then flare widely to the hemline. Label: No label Sizing: No size is indicated, and although it should fit a medium size, please rely on the following measurements for fit taking the style of the garment into account: Shoulders: 14” across from one shoulder seam to the other shoulder seam - note that the shoulder cap extends into the sleeve cap Sleeves: 23” from the shoulder seam Sleeve Inseam: 17 1/4” Bust: 36” around Waist: 33” around Hips: 42” around Length: 53” Condition: It is in excellent condition with no pronounced wear, tear, stains, odours or other defect.
