Now in shop 50s Lilli Ann Cocoon Coat L

Here's a wool cocoon coat by Lilli Ann Paris California. It is from the late 50s, fully lined, accented with curly Persian lamb ( not too sure if it's real) and has a sweet front bow. It is a large size, but can be cinched at the waist with a vintage belt, to give it a more fitted look.  The Princess coats that I've seen on the web are so expensive, this is all you have to do to achieve that 50s new look or  princess coat look is add a large belt.  The waist appear smaller too, cool tip from the 50s.  

This is why I love Lilli Anns....

  I have been a huge Lilli Ann fan for years, I purchase my very first one in high-school at a local vintage shop in the 1980s. Thanks to the vintage shop Kitchy- Koo I fell in love with a Lilli Ann  faux leopard print coat. This coat is long gone, I ended up selling it to a gal at a local coffee shop. Boy, do I miss that coat of mine.  When I get one it is hard to let go, but boy do they sell  fast.  I had such  a good week when one coat went to California, a dress went to NYC and now my favorite one is off to the UK.  I have only three more Lilli Ann suits left in my collection, I hope they sell soon. I might keep them, hehe. I have not listed them on my website until they come back from the dry cleaners this week, and one will need some repairs. I will blog them later...stay tuned.


Here are the beauties that are now in happy homes...
