Bonnie Cashin for Sills Coat NOH Mohair Knit Leather Trim Museum Piece Rare OS
About the Item
This fabulous woolly mohair coat was designed by Bonnie Cashin during her time at Sills circa 1957.
This same style NOH coat is part of the collection at the FIDM Museum collection (do a web search of Bonnie Cashin mohair NOH coat FIDM and you'll see it online) and is a great example of Bonnie's incredibly practical yet stylish design aesthetic.
The woolly mohair is a rich chocolate and black shaggy knit, and the coat is trimmed in black leather. It fastens with two leather ties at the collar, and features leather-trimmed half moon pockets at each side.
Unlined, this piece is light weight yet unbelievably warm and supple. It's perfect for layering (yet another fashion innovation coined by Bonnie!) and is so easy to wear and style. Incredibly rich and stylish, this coat will quickly become one of your favorites - and is so incredibly hard to find nowadays!
Made in the USA. No content label; dry clean only. No size tag but we're estimating this as a modern size L. Approximate measurements, taken flat and doubled where appropriate laying flat: shoulders: 20in, bust: 42in, waist: 36in, hips: 44in, sleeves - 23in, shoulder to hem length: 42in.
Preowned/vintage (50+ years old), we note some signs of age, use and prior wear: some piling to the knit here and there, some wrinkling to the leather trim areas, as you would expect from age and prior wear. Tagged SILLS A BONNIE CASHIN DESIGN,

- Bonnie Cashin for Sills Coat Oversized Trailing Sleeves Boucle Knit DocumentedBy Bonnie Cashin for Sills, Bonnie CashinLocated in Port Saint Lucie, FLIncredibly rare and uniquely gorgeous vintage Bonnie Cashin for Sills coat with exaggerated trailing sleeves, likely made in the late 60s. Made from a supple mohair and wool boucle knit, the oversized houndstooth pattern features several shades of brown, green and black. Trimmed in black leather piping, it has Bonnie's signature half moon pockets at each hip and is unlined. As documented in Dr. Stephanie Lake's monograph, Bonnie Cashin: Chic Is Where You Find It (photos on page 177 and on back cover), Bonnie's pieces were sewn "...almost entirely by hand and usually by one person start to finish...". Indeed, this is truly a one-of-a-kind piece. No fasteners, one can simply wear as-is, use as a layering piece or style with a favorite belt or Obi sash, as we've shown in some of our images (belt shown is NOT included). Leather/dry clean only. No size tag, but we're estimating this as a modern M/L. Measurements (approximate, taken flat and doubled where appropriate): shoulders - 16in, bust - 40in, waist - 33in, hips - 43in, shoulder to hem - 46in, sleeves - 25in. Preowned/vintage with minimal signs of age, prior use and wear, this coat appears as if it was never worn (something we rarely say about vintage...Category
