Hello Fashion Diggers...
As the season is about to change, our
thoughts turn to...
coats!
The site is stocked with vintage coats that will get you through fall and
winter with style... here are some of our favorite postings:
Turn-Of-The
Century: Look for antique finds like the gorgeous Edwardian mohair coat and
elegant silk duster.
1920s:
Keep warm over your flimsy flapper dress with a faux-fur 20s coat with silk
passementerie closure... don't miss the spectacular black silk velvet evening
coat.
1930s:
If you're an opera buff, grab the blue silk velvet Art Deco opera coat (price
just reduced.)
1940s:
Hollywood glam is evident in the lamb trim trench coat, the Chinese dress coat
and the silk brocade theater coat.
1950s:
Look for lady-like silhouettes like the fabulous black wool coat with oversized
shall collar, tapered waist and full skirt, the paid wool coat with fur collar
and the coral cashmere clutch coat.
1960s:
MOD rules with graphic prints like the black & white striped or Op-Art
print raincoats and stylish capes like the brown suede & fur Hippie cape
and trendy gold lame beauty.
1970s:
Check out the classic Bonnie Cashin raincoats and mohair beauties, the black
wool wrap coat with bone trim, the Alpaca cape, the multi-colored hippie maxi
coat and the wine velveteen coat.

Add flair to any
coat or outfit with a colorful
scarf!
We found designer beauties at great prices like an autumn print silk Scassi, a
70s Pierre
Balmain silk ascot (wrap around the neck or wear as a long waist sash,)
several silk Vera scarves
with floral and MOD prints,
Emilio
Pucci scarves in cotton and silk, vintage Hermes prints and large scarves
like the Bessi and
Moschino couture silks.
