Patriotic Navy Blue Sheared Mink Coat with Red and White Striped Sleeves 1059

Description

Navy is the most useful dark colour there is, because it reads as a colour where black reads as an absence. This navy blue sheared mink coat adds the two that make it unmistakable: bands of red and white around each upper sleeve, and the same stripes at both pocket openings, so the flag is there without a flag being printed on anything.

It is the coat for an inauguration, a parade, a game against a rival, or simply a grey February day that needs something. The stripes sit where a varsity jacket would put them, which is why they look deliberate rather than decorative. Below them the coat is plain: a stand collar that holds its own shape, a body worked in sections, and a hem at the knee.

Worn here over black trousers, which lets the stripes do the talking. See the blue mink coats, the rest of our mink coats, and what is new this season.
