A luxurious and extremely versatile vintage mink cape that is perfect for weddings or everyday winter wear. This exquisite pale champagne hued cape features a double-rolled princess collar and two satin-lined concealed front pockets to keep chily hands warm in the winter. Its oversized rear sweep and side arm slits make the cape sit like a jacket when worn. Styled by a Chicago master furrier in the mid-1960s, the cape is crafted of wide, superbly plush and thick mink pelts that are artfully sewn so that the pelts lines are invisible. The fur's colour is best described as a dark cream or pale champagne hue.
The cape is lined in a pale taupe satin and is closed with stunning diamante/ rhinestone buttons! As with all fine furs of this era, the previous owner's name 'Helen Trampe' is embroidered in the lining.
The elegant simplicity of this cape and stunning but neutral colour of the fur make it an extremely versatile addition to any wardrobe. Wear it as an everyday piece over jumpers, to a holiday party over a cocktail dress, or to an autumn wedding.
