The coat, from thread burn tests, seems to be all silk, with the exterior fabric a spring-y (it has slight give) waffle weave and a dull (non-glossy) appearance. The lining is silk faille and the shirred collar, wide ties and front facing all made of silk moiré taffeta, with its characteristic "watered" look. The ties can be made into a bow or whatever you desire, although I wouldn't tie this silk tight ever. It is very crisp and makes a great bow.
Other than the bow there are no fasteners, and the coat is lengthy and slightly flaring. It has fairly wide raglan sleeves with small cuffs. There are double welt pockets.
The coat is of over-the-top quality, and timelessly beautiful...what we love in vintage clothing!
Condition: Very, very good. There is one small and one tiny hole in the lower side front of the coat (shown in the last photo).
Size: Fairly easy in fit, probably best for small to medium sizes
Side seam to side seam measured across the back at bust level-19.5"
