Original 1920s McEwens of Perth Fur Flapper Coat
Original 1920s McEwens of Perth Fur Flapper Coat
Original late 1920s coat of dreams in excellent vintage condition for its age.
Fully lined in rayon crepe de chine. Internal pocket, iconic collar and sleeves.
Two large statement buttons to front and a matching smaller one to front of chest (hidden under collar) to button it up fully.
Wear the collar up or down.
Best for UK8-10
Our first model is 155cm tall UK8 and the sleeves are full length. Our second model with the gloves is 163cm tall UK8 and they hit more bracelet length.
The buttons seem to have been moved in the past to make the coat for wider. They could be moved back to their original position.
The coat would also fit a small UK12 but might be less restrictive in regards to shoulder movement.
McEwen’s of Perth label to the inside.
Measurements:
Length 46.5” approximately from top of shoulder down.
Sleeves 21” from shoulder seam down.
Bust up to 38”
The lining needs mending at the top where it meets the collar. The stitching has perished a little. This is an easy fix.
Small tear in lining in one place. Not visible when worn (pictured)
The fur collar shows a couple of area of thinning (pictured).
