Details
A truly exceptional vintage Versace Classic coat, beautifully tailored in blue/navy with fine warm-ivory stripes precisely aligned to create its dramatic chevron design.
The long, sculpted silhouette is unmistakably Versace. Strong shoulders and sharply layered lapels give way to a closely shaped waist before falling into a sleek, narrow line below the knee. Two original burgundy buttons, each finished with a tiny gold geometric centre, provide the perfect contrast.
The extraordinary pattern placement is central to the design. Each striped panel has been carefully cut and matched, forming a continuous series of chevrons through the front and along the entire centre back. It is a wonderful demonstration of Italian tailoring and becomes even more striking when the coat is worn.
Made in a substantial yet gently flexible acetate-and-cotton fabric, with a touch of elastane for ease of movement. The coat retains its original Versace Classic swing tags and seal and is in beautiful unworn vintage condition.
Estimated to date from the 1990s.
Why I Love This
The tailoring is quite extraordinary. From a distance, it has all the elegance of a beautifully fitted navy coat; closer up, the precision of the chevron stripes, sculpted shoulders and burgundy-and-gold buttons reveal just how special it is.
It feels powerful, feminine and wonderfully sophisticated without relying on overt branding. This is the sort of rare vintage piece that transforms the simplest black dress or trouser outfit and will never look ordinary.
