The Hourglass Coat in Blue Silk Madras
Formal Summer Coat
Our Hourglass Coats are the most shaped and tailored of our coats. They have a neatly tailored shape and a structure that mirrors the traditional hourglass shape, with a fitted silhouette and defined waist.
Generous full length sleeves are slitted at the wrist and have deep internal hems that create neat fold-back cuffs. The coat has two hidden seam pockets and is designed to be worn low on the calf.
When closed, the two front panels of the coat should be able to meet without either straining at the rear or overlapping at the front; they can be held together to keep the coat closed with any of our closures.
Cuts
We offer this shape in two cuts -
The Biffin – for the broader backed, smaller chested frame.
The Vasey – for the narrower backed, fuller chested frame.
Collars
The coats can be ordered with no collar (as shown in the photographs) or with a Nehru collar.
Lining
Lined in Silver Silk with a Silver coloured Satin Trim.
Fabric
Blue Silk Madras - a fine silk with a wonderful weave relief.
