Double breasted and with wide lapels and a chic cut, this Normal Norell couture coat is a classic that will never go out of style. Norell was particularly known for his meticulous cut, fit, and use of quality fabrics. He made clothes that lasted and this coat is proof as it looks as fresh as the day it was made. The cut of this coat is beautiful. It skims the body and flatters. The fabric choice of a wool whose combination of black and white fine ribbing give it the appearance of a heather grey, softens the bold and simple line and give it length and leanness. I love how the wide leather belt creates a strong contrast and shape. The big, bold buttons add the perfect detail to balance the lone the belt creates. It is sharply tailored and has an almost manly cut. It is immaculate in its construction and is a stunning example of why Norell is considered one of the great American couturiers. Excellent condition and appears unworn Fully lined with a handset, grey silk taffeta. It buttons to close as seen and has its original leather belt that is stamped with the designers name.
