Opera coat

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Dark green opera coat by Schiaparelli. The coat is hanging on a white hanger with a metal hook. It has a wide lapel and appears to be made of a thick fabric, possibly wool. The coat is open with no fastenings visible. The interior of the coat is dark green with a thin red seam visible at the back of the neck. The sleeves are wide and appear to be cape-like. The coat is knee-length. The background is white.
