This YSL coat is from the 1970s and it is a great example of the easy kind of work that he was doing in suede for this time period. It is a soft brown and the suede is soft. The collar and cuffs are a coyote and if wearing fur bothers you, you could remove them and wear it without, or replace it with a faux and just keep the original for historical purposes. The shoulders are soft and the sleeves long and easy with the fur cuff adding detail at each end. The collar is wide to make a fabulous statement. It comes in slightly at the waist and then flares out at the bottom. There are five braided suede straps that cross over the opening at the front and loop into place with horn feeling toggle buttons at each end. Pockets at each hip to slip your hands into. It is a coat that was worn and loved which has given it a fabulous vintage patina. Great condition with a note below. 

Fully lined in a brown silky rayon and closes with the toggles at the front. Slight stiffening to the suede through the body and slight wear to the edges of the cuffs. Small marks and scuffs in the suede here and there.

I have a small collection of historically important, key designer labelled vintage furs and fur trimmed pieces stored away in my archives that I will be slowly posting on the site over the next couple of years until I have none left. I will no longer be buying furs for the shop moving forward and have not purchased anything for several years now. I feel like times have changed and while there still is a place for vintage furs for some, including collectors and historians, many modern girls are choosing other options. Many of the pieces in my collection are representative of the designer during a set time period in history that was different then our modern outlook. I have decided that the best course to handle this controversial issue is to let the pieces I have go rather then sit in a cold storage unit. Fur coats are final sale.
