Comment
This vintage coat is in great condition. Lovely colour and fabric and a beautiful light-weight version of an early princess coat. Not as full as the later versions, but it can take two crinolines petticoats as displayed in these photos. It also looks wonderful falling straight...so versatile! Take a look at that amazing back detailing! Absolutely beautiful. Cleaned and ready to wear. Please drop us a line if you require additional information about this listing.
