- Description

- A sleek "Art Deco" feel characterizes this coat, with its parallel vertical panels and v-shaped belt buckle and collar decoration. Note how the sleeves seamlessly merge in one piece into the shoulders. The severe, elegant shape of the coat, combined with the artist's white-drawn highlights, make the garment look almost metallic.
