This Givenchy coat is made from a very unusual fabric for its time period. The fabric is structured and almost feels like a cross between a canvas and a neoprene. This gives it an unusual feel to the finished texture. It is hard to describe but when you have it in your hands you will agree that it is very unique. I feel that perhaps its been waterproofed and this is what is giving it this finish. Regardless of what it is, the fabric choice is what gives it its structured feel and shape. It is covered in an abstract taupe print on a and white backdrop and this print runs over the entire coat. The lines of the coat are quite classic with a neat, notched collar and straight sleeve. It closes at the front with large silver metal tones buttons on a double row. It skins over the bust and hips and then flares out to the hem. It is extremely well made with a deep brown silk taffeta inside and hand finishes. The buttonholes are properly finished. It is absolutely gorgeous in person and even better than it looks in the photos. It appears to have never been worn or worn very little. Excellent condition
