Afghan coat

in #needleworkmonday7 years ago (edited)

In the seventies I was too young to have a vote in choosing my clothes, but I certainly do remember them. Those coats, with a mixed smell of suede, cigarettes and incense.
A couple of years ago I create one myself, inspired on those hippie 'uniforms'.
The suede is fake. The fur is fake. The embroidery is real ;)
Unfortunately we don't have real winters in Australia ...

It is fabulous! I would have loved to have one of these coats back in the days! And even now...you may just start a new/old trend!

Hihi yeah! I'm loving the wide flower-printed skirts too, so no problem with that :)))
