Black Silk Velvet Opera Clutch Swing Coat with Balloon Raglan Sleeve – S, 1950s
About the Item
Favored in the mid-century because their volume allowed them to be worn over the full-skirted silhouettes of the time, opera coats still appear on modern runways due to their drama and versatility. Dramatic balloon sleeves and luxe silk velvet make this a subtle showstopper, while the draping shawl collar permits it to be worn with a range of outfits.
Voluminous opera coat with shawl collar, balloon raglan sleeves and slash pockets both sides; open front with no closures of any kind. Fully lined in black silk satin.
