Custom Convertible Length Brown-Black Horizontal Ranch Mink Coat – S, 1971
About the Item
Custom made for its owner in 1971 and professionally stored since, this one-of-a-kind ranch mink coat is remarkable both for its beauty and its practicality. Its horizontal 5” pelts not only create a striking modern geometry, but also accentuate the swing of the princess skirt. Most importantly however, its clever zip off hem converts the floor length silhouette to tea length for endless versatility. When unzipped, the 10” hem can also be worn as a mink stole (brooch shown not included in purchase). Brilliant.
Full-length ranch mink princess coat; full notched collar coverts to high neck when closed at throat and funnel neck when closed around chin. Bracelet length sleeves and silk lined pockets each side. 10” zip off hem converts coat from full length to tea length, and hem may be used as stole. Faux double breasted front closure with elastic loops; black textured buttons with black inset crystals. Fully lined in heavyweight chocolate crêpe de chine with interior waist ties; hidden interior pocket at right breast seam. Monogrammed “MMW” inside right panel.
