What is a duster coat used for?
1 Answer
A duster coat is a loose- fitting, lightweight coat made of canvas or linen. They were originally worn by horsemen to protect their clothing from trail dust and were slit at the back up to hip level for ease of wearing. Today, a duster coat is often worn unbuttoned over the clothing. On 1stDibs, shop vintage and designer duster coats from top fashion boutiques around the world.
