Thank you for posting these photos NS. I have long admired this coat for it highlights the face, throat, shoulders and flatters everyone who wears it. I have a single breasted version that I wear whenever the occasion permits. Often recieve sincere compliments on it. Sorry to say that did not happen yesterday. Being a liberal I did not get an invitation. Can you believe it?
