1960s Purple & Pink Tweed Wool Coat

Ever notice how when winter arrives, everyone around you is wearing some version of the the same old black coat?  How boring can that be!?  Especially for those of us who know that the counterpart to the same old black coat - like this one - is just begging to come out and play.  A gorgeous wool tweed in shades of purple and pink with a dash of citron thrown in, this baby is every bit as hip and modern and the more recent versions you've undoubtedly seen.  Made for That Young Leeds Look, this double breasted style  is extremely well tailored with adorable plastic mauve and black rosebud buttons, a slanted faux welted pocket at each breast, and vertical welted pockets at either hip, as well as a half belt and pleated vent in back. And don't forget the delicious plum satin lining.  Excellent condition, bust measures 38", waist 38", hip 42", shoulder 16", sleeve 22, length 40". sold
