Technicolor (Evening) Dream Coats

Now, some real-life examples of the evening coats (or jackets) I so adore.

Rich ruched velvet sleeves = yum!  From CharlotteIona

Black and white, velvet and fur= beyond perfect.  From SwaneeGrace


Gorgeous fabric + Juliet sleeves (another of my obsessions)! From Faded Splendour

Velvet Capelet Jacket that is actually apparently a violet purple.  From NodtoModVintage

    The one with the fur collar is absolutely stunning. But then most things with fur collar are!

    That burgundy capelet just gave me a vintage-gasm. For serious. Right here. In the office. I wonder if there are patterns for something similar floating around out there. Ahh! Now I have to go to etsy and ebay! Look what you did 0___x

    Yes, that second one is ridiculously amazing, though I definitely agree with Q: each is spectacular in its own exquisite way ;).

    Nancy: LOL!
