Vintage Mink Cape For Sale on 1stDibs

Find the exact vintage or contemporary vintage mink cape you’re shopping for in the variety available on 1stDibs. Our collection includes a variety of colors, spanning black, brown, beige and more. Making the right choice when shopping for a vintage mink cape may mean looking at versions that date from different eras — you can find early iterations from the 20th Century and a newer version made as recently as the 20th Century, both of which have proven very popular over the years. Making an accessory such as this has likely been a part of the legacy of many fashion designers, but those produced by Maximilian are consistently popular. If you’re browsing our inventory for these accessories, you’ll find that many are available today for women, but there are still pieces to choose from for men and unisex.

How Much is a Vintage Mink Cape?

Prices for a vintage mink cape can differ depending upon size, designer and other attributes — on 1stDibs, these accessories begin at $175 and can go as high as $8,500, while, on average they fetch $986.

Finding the Right Coats-outerwear for You

There is a stylish garment for anywhere in the universe, and on 1stDibs, finding the right vintage and designer coats and outerwear doesn’t have to feel like a journey to the ends of the earth.

Outerwear includes many types of garments aside from the standard coat. From capes, gilets, jackets and cloaks to raincoats and kimonos, fashion designers have long been preparing us for the elements, and outerwear in general has changed and evolved significantly over time.

A lot of the coat styles in our closets, such as the durable Navy-inspired peacoat, were popularized by soldiers who battled aggressive climes in their regulation field jackets and parkas — indeed, keeping troopers comfortable guided the design of the military surplus garments that have often become buzzy fashion trends. Even today, owing to the likes of Burberry, a luxury fashion house that is among the originators of the trench coat worn by British officers during World War I, the trench remains a timeless style, now available in a range of colors that can be worn throughout the year.

While women in late 1700s England donned an adaptation of a men’s jacket called a spencer — the likeness of which could be spotted in Ralph Lauren’s ready-to-wear collections hundreds of years later — designers hadn’t widely been crafting outerwear specifically for women. Generally, the outerwear of choice for the fashionable, well-heeled lady prior to the 1800s usually consisted of capes, shawls and stoles. By the mid-1800s, women were wearing overcoats with multiple layered collars popularized by men (often called a Garrick coat in England), and as women entered the workforce during the 1920s, hemlines climbed, jewelry was prominent and fashion conventions were broken across the board.

Thankfully, the 20th century’s tradition of challenging the norm continues steadfast in today’s outerwear fashions. Contemporary designers certainly find inspiration in 1960s and 1970s coats by Pierre Cardin, Yves Saint Laurent and Bonnie Cashin, but unisex options abound in modern creations that take both function and style into account. Find what inspires you in the full range of vintage and designer coats and outerwear available for sale on 1stDibs.

Questions About Vintage Mink Cape
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 13, 2024
    What a vintage mink coat is worth will depend on certain factors. A small mink coat could sell for under $300 while a top designer coat could sell for over $10,000 — and size, brand name, quality and condition will play a role in determining its value.

    Vintage mink coats created by internationally revered designers and brands such as VersaceChanel or Armani — none of which utilize fur anymore in their products — can fetch prices today in the tens of thousands of dollars (particularly if kept in good condition). Luxury mink coats were very fashionable during the 1980s and could command up to several hundred thousand dollars.

    What a mink coat is worth can also see fluctuations owing to societal and cultural factors such as a shift in attitudes with respect to the use of animal fur in the fashion industry. 

    Experts recommend consulting an appraiser or professional seller in order to accurately determine the value of your vintage mink coat.
