Rendered in the most incredible shade of peacock green Duchess satin and lined in a peacock blue rayon, this original vintage 1950's Neiman Marcus Swing coat is a rare piece to behold. 

The elegant bateau cut neckline of the coat draws together in a cross over design with a concealed press stud and a hook and loop. The neckline features wide box pleats, from which the satin drapes along the length of the coat. The simple shoulder line, sets off the mid length raglan cut sleeves, which are decorated with large matching duchess satin bows along the back of each side. The incredible wide swing cut of this piece, drapes in layers of pleated duchess satin, completing this piece in an iconic and timeless 1950's silhouette.
