Imaginatively designed on generous, enveloping lines, this coat boasts curved shoulders that fan out into flounced sleeves, creating a supremely dignified and cheeringly warm silhouette. The luxurious alpaca fabric, known for its softness and warmth, makes this coat a standout addition to any 1950s wardrobe.
