Description:
This striking coat is made from black-shot red silk dupion, edged and lined in
black satin. The thick satin trim extends from the back split in the coat up the
back, and is crossed by another line of black satin at the centre back. Black
satin also trims the cuffs and extends up the sleeves of the coat. Intricate
black embroidery adorns the corners of the hem, and surrounds the centre back
cross. Silver zips run from the cuffs of the sleeves to the elbow, and the coat
is fastened across the chest with a large silver buckle. Silver buckles and
O-rings on black leather straps encircle the upper arms. Beneath the coat is a
sleeveless black-shot red silk dupion vest, fully lined with black satin, with a
silver front zip and black embroidery around the hem. The trousers are black
sateen, with long silver zips running up the front of each trouser leg, and
three silver buckles on leather straps encircling the left thigh.
