Here she combines mohair with leather in her big—little and big—long coats ... contemporary classics ... produced by Sills & Company.Big—little Zibeline in an easy version of her famous Noh carving, in a natural winter—white tone called Sandstone. Traced with leather, the inside of the coat is as beautifully and meticulously structured as the outside. The huge, detachable Fling is pure creature—comfort as well as pure drama.The Big Coat is another imaginative use of the Sandstone Zibeline, yoked front and back with wind—resistant splashes of Sandstone leather, as are the tailored details.
