The Company Beged-Or Is Well-Known For Its Super Quality Designs And Leathers From The Late 60s And 70s. The Word On The Street Is That Calvin Klein, Franco Moschino, And Giorgio Armani All Did A Stint With This Infamous Israeli Company. Wow. Perhaps One Of Those Guys Even Designed THIS Coat. We May Never Know...
Fabric Is Brilliant ... Some Type Of Gold Ultra-Felt... A Fuzzy/Felt/Ultrasuede Mixture That Is All Soft And Liquid...Navy Zig Zag Stitching Everywhere... Totally Fitted And Cut To Absolute Exactness...
It Has All These Little Extra Cool Bits On It... The Elbow Patches... Ultra Cool Classic Trench Styling... Metal Buckles That Don't Buckle Anything (Odd...) On Wrists And On The Top Of The Back Vent... Ultra Pristine, Toffee Satin Lining... Front Slit Pockets...Same Fabric Belt With Metal Buckle That DOES Buckle. :)
So Fabulous That The Original Textile Recept Was In The Pocket.... It Has The Manufacture Date - 1968 - And All The Details Of For This Coat. It Even Has The Name Of The Cutter - Filip. Wonder Where Filip Is Now? Still Cutting Coats? Anyway... Made In Israel ... Which Makes THIS One More Valuable In Vintage Terms.
This Coat Is In, Never Worn Condition... There Are A Couple Very Faint Marks Here And There - Probably From Hanging In Storage- And A Pale Scuff Near The Back Hem - We've Taken some Off the price for This. The Coat Has No Damage Or Wear At All. These Mark Are Insignificant To Us - But We Most Mention Them-
This Is One Of Those Amazing Garments That Just Springs To Life When You Slide It On. It Fits You Like A Glove. Utterly Gorgeous, Fabulous And Drop-Dead Chic!
