With things the way they are currently, I've found that I need to seriously look at what I don't/can't wear and downsize accordingly. I, honestly, don’t want to let this masterpiece go. However, I simply can’t justify having it sit around in my closet for another year (or 5) when I’ve only worn it out once! This coat has a lovely cream/gold neutral colouring and a delicate brocade-like fabric. The thick lace detailing is roses but I can’t really place the pattern on the whole of the coat. When I wore it out on New Year’s I managed to get some sort of stain (not alcohol) on the front between the buttons (covered when buttoned) and on the left sleeve cuff (both shown in pictures). This is one of the few items that I’d rather not haggle on the price, but feel free to ask any questions. I really want this beloved piece to go to a good home where it will be appreciated and worn much more than I’ve been able to wear it.
