Vintage 1980’s Sonia Rykiel Black Marabou Feather Collarless Coat made in France. Absolutely, a gorgeous Feather Coat. The coat has a single hook and eye closure at the top and is open from that point down. I just pulled the coat together (picture #3 & #8) to better view feathers on the front of coat. The coat consists of sewn strips of Marabou feathers, no bare spots, and the coat is fully lined. Tag size is 38, by today standards a size 8/10. The coats lining is 100% Acetate. I would be more than happy to provide additional pictures on request. No rips, tears, stains or discoloration. Excellent Vintage condition.
