This coat is a stunning, archival piece of American fashion history.
This authentic 1980s Perry Ellis long wool overcoat was originally retailed at the legendary luxury department store, Bonwit Teller.
This coat features Perry Ellis\'s iconic, dramatic 1980s silhouette, complete with structural padded shoulders, deep front flap pockets, wide mid-length sleeves, and a beautifully tailored double-breasted closure.
The crowning jewel of the piece is its incredibly plush, thick, and velvety real sheared beaver fur collar.
A dream find for vintage collectors and fashion archivists alike. It carries three pristine internal labels: the Perry Ellis designer tag, the script Bonwit Teller retailer tag, and the red, white, and blue \"Union Made in the USA\" ILGWU tag.Condition:
Excellent vintage condition. The wool fabric is heavy, structured, and free of notable flaws. The genuine fur collar is incredibly soft, supple, and dense with no drying out, shedding, or bald spots.
The interior satin lining is fully intact. (Please review all high-resolution photos for exact condition details).The coat is approximately a US Women\'s Size Small (roughly a modern Size 4 to 6).
Because it is a vintage 1990s heavy winter coat, it was designed with extra \"room to layer\" (ease). Here is how those flat garment measurements translate to actual fit:
* Bust (19” flat / 38” doubled): A 38-inch coat circumference is best suited for a body with an actual chest/bust measurement of 32” to 34” so you can comfortably wear a sweater underneath.
* Shoulder (17”): This is a classic, slightly structured 90s shoulder width, standard for a size Small.
* Sleeve (23”): A regular petite-to-average sleeve length.
* Length (52”): This is a true maxi length coat. On someone who is 5\'5\", a 52-inch coat will hit right around the lower calf/ankle area.
