Bonnie Cashin for Sills Coat Abstract Tweed Knit Suede Trim Tie Wrap Waist 60s

Incredibly rare vintage Bonnie Cashin for Sills coat, likely made in the late 60s. Made from a geometric woolen tweed in shades of rust, charcoal, cream and tan, it's trimmed in tan suede around the neck, down the placket and at the sleeve cuffs. It has Bonnie's signature half-moon pockets at each hip, fastens with hidden snaps, and has long skinny suede ties at each side, allowing one to double wrap and cinch the waist. Timelessly chic and sophisticated, it makes the perfect layering piece - a design concept coined in the 1950s by Cashin, which also led to her winning both the Coty award and a Neiman Marcus fashion award.
