The coat is disappointing. It fits perfect and I love the style, however I asked the seller two questions before I purchased it as I wanted to make sure it wouldn't be a flimsy costume piece.
1. Is it made of heavy fabric? 2. Is it lined?
I specified I wanted it for a winter coat and was assured it would be heavy and lined.
It is not. It is shiny, and it is somewhat flimsy, and it isn't lined in the slightest. I emailed her today though and she took it on and said she'd send me a new one to my specs. Here's hoping to number two!
In the meantime I may try and line the one I got myself. Toss a bit of black fur in and it may be salvageable after all. :)
well, damn. I hope the 2nd attempt works out as you'd like.
And I'd love to hear how the re-lining project goes - I've been tempted to do that with my playa coat. The lining is ripping out & I've been considering lining it with something warmer & softer.
