There aren’t many items for unisex if you’re seeking these accessories, as most of the options available are for men and women.

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 Opera Coats
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021
    A vintage mink coat can cost anywhere between $500-15,000 depending on the designer and the condition it is in. On 1stDibs, find a large collection of vintage mink coats from designers such as Christian Dior, Versace and Yves Saint Laurent.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 7, 2023

    The value of a vintage mink coat depends on a variety of factors, including the condition, size, brand and quality. A small mink coat could sell for under $300 while a top designer coat could sell for over $10,000.


    Luxury mink coats were especially fashionable during the 1980s, and during that period a coat of this type could command up to several hundred thousand dollars. Today, vintage mink coats created by internationally revered designers and brands such as Versace, Chanel or Armani -- none of which utilize fur anymore in their products -- can fetch prices in the tens of thousands of dollars (particularly if kept in good condition).


    How much 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.
