Schiaparelli vintage mink fur coat from the 1950s

Schiaparelli vintage mink fur coat from the 1950sWhileSchiaparelli was known for mixing materials in winter coat designs - most notably mink collars with Persian lambs wool shells- it’s rare to come across a full mink coat from the Parisian fashion house.This coat features a long-haired mink collar, lustrous & glossy. The body is crafted from sheared mink fur which almost feels / looks like velvet. Super soft to touch, & durable. In a brown hue with hints of maroon (the shades shifts when you run your fingers through)Spacious slit pockets, silk lining bearing a yardage of Schiaparelli monogramhook-and-eye closures withsweepingcollar over,mirroring the dramatic, sculptural lines of her iconic fur designs. A lovely example of Schiaparelli’s vision, blending practicality with couture artistry. And TBH a testament to mid century craftsmanship in general. No size tag. My guess would be an M-L.Measurement estimates (when coat is closed)Bust - 36.5”Waist - 37”Length -39”In very good vintage condition. Light wear from age & minor restoration to interior lining. Sheered mink fur is nuanced in color.
