Abstract
The Burgundy Wool Coat with Laser Cut Details was designed for the mass market Fall/Winter 2017. Inspired by travel and an active lifestyle, practicality is a focus. The coat features deep front pockets for easy access to items, hidden zipper and welt pockets for security of belongings, a versatile zip-off hood and a center front two-way separating zipper. This functional, unique coat has modern and innovative elements. The pockets and hood are laser cut with an original plaid design, which is also quilted for added durability and aesthetics. Buttoned tabs on the sleeves and three toggles on the bust are interesting nods to tradition. This modernized version of a classic duffel coat is made of 100% wool with a polyester lining in colors based on current trends. The lightweight design is perfect for fall, while the slightly boxy silhouette can be worn over warm layers for winter.
