Amazing Vintage Unlabeled Full Length White Fluffy Feather Coat w Extra Wide Bell Sleeves

Full on vintage feather coats in such excellent condition are a rare find these days and this one is gorgeous. This is the coat that you will reach for over and over. It is made from fluffy white down feathers that create a tremendous volume and sense of drama. Little pale grey feathers are worked through that and these pop out from the white feathers on long thin stalks to add a gorgeous contrast. In person the depth and texture of all of those thousands and thousands of feathers have an even better effect then how it photoed. The feathers are tightly set together onto the base fabric so that you don't see any of that fabric between the feathers. This creates an almost bias cut like effect and allows the coat to billow and move around you fantastically when you move. It has a little collar that you can flip up or down depending on how much of the feathers you want around your neck. It is meant to skim over the body to the floor and widens out as it nears the hem. The sleeves are incredibly wide and they are a full 30" around by the time they reach their ends. You may remember that moment when Tracee Ellis Ross wore a feather coat from me to host the American Music Awards in 2017. She dropped it on stage and it fell from her shoulder like a cloud (I have that moment captured on my Instagram if you want to pop over there to see). This has that same feel. Once on the body the line of the coat is long and it always seems to sit perfectly in place no matter how you move. It definitely has volume but this just adds to its appeal. You could also belt it to add more shape like Tracee did backstage that day. It feels like next to nothing on and it is a full maxi coat length that falls right to the floor. It is truly amazing. The feathers give it a rich, deep texture and you will be able to wear it over anything. This also might make an amazing piece for a bride who needs something to top her dress. Excellent condition.
