Coat Research

I tried on a coat today. It wasn't terribly well made and it didn't fit in the sleeves the way I would like. But I thought the design was very interesting. You can find it here. It's called the high neck coat.

The cool thing about the coat is the way the top becomes this lovely large collar when unbuttoned. The collar was very flattering on me and the two rows of buttons didn't look too stuffy either. If ever I were to make a coat with this kind of collar, I would line it with something soft and fun - not the fashion fabric which is a bit scratchy and, well, coat-like.
