The reason I had to ship stuff home from Louisiana…
This coat took up half my suitcase and weighed a ton!! See that shimmering satin lining, and after washing & drying it, it is soooo soft. But the labels say it ALL…
A Lilli Ann gem!! In the fashion industry, a “fabulous french woolen”. And I’m sure I just gave someone heartburn when I said I washed and dried it (yes, in the dryer). It doesn’t fit me (way too big) so I had nothing to lose. All I wanted really, was the labels. Yep, the labels. I dragged this coat almost 1000 miles JUST for the labels. Now that it’s nice and clean and still too big, I will recycle the material. Some french woolen teddy bears…
I’m not a fashion buff, but vintage clothing scores like this one make my heart go pitter-patter. Actually I think it was the $1 that made my heart pitter-patter. hahaha
You are too funny as I am sure you ARE giving someone out there a heart attack instead of just heart burn by cutting that coat up to pieces!!!
