Crafted from supple suede leather in a rich indigo tone, this exceptional Alpine Fashions coat is the epitome of glamourous mid century dressing. Hand cut and tailored in Christchurch, New Zealand, the silhouette is softly sculpted through the waist before falling into an elegant longline shape that moves beautifully with the body. The oversized curved collar framing and covered leather buttons create a distinctly feminine architectural detail, while the velvety nap catches light in shifting shades of midnight blue and violet. A true heirloom quality outerwear piece, its construction reflects an era of careful tailoring and enduring craftsmanship.

This silhouette offers beautiful balance through the shoulders and waist, creating gentle definition without feeling restrictive. The long clean lines elongate the frame while the softly flared lower shape allows ease through the hips and movement through layering. Style with tailored trousers, fine knits, or silk dresses for a refined winter look. Side pockets add practicality without interrupting the sleek profile.
