Description
Text of press release: "Bonnie Cashin has solved the long and short of it in her own inimitable way. For some time she has been a strongadvocate of the parabola line.In this bold plaid wool coat, designed for Philip Sills and Company, the inportant design element is the short front that sweeps gracefully into a longer line in the back, traced with mallard green leather to complement the gold and mallard green colors in the plaid.Though unlined, the raglan sleeves are sufficiently “tent-y”and can cover with comfort any number of the Cashin concept of“layers” for the traveler as well as the stay—at—homer.The collar too is a striking innovation -- double-fold, andbias—cut, it lends itself to a variety of wearable moods.Sizes: extra small, small, medium* 2802 — $275.00"
