About the Item

1980's ZILLI FRANCE Men's 'Corneille' model, calf suede and fur coat. This ultra-luxurious, winter coat is made of black, calf-suede skin, and is fully lined in genuine, black squirrel fur. The inside fur lining features a concealed, ventilation mesh gusset at the inside center back for breathability. Generously shaped, silver-tipped fox fur collar. The coat opens up on the wearer's right front with four, toggle closures, and self-looped, strap openings. Single toggle and loop at the sleeve cuffs. Twin front patch pockets at the waist level. Structured shoulder shape. Made in France, as labeled. *MEASUREMENTS* Please note that the 1980's label size is a US 40, and was intended to have a very loose fit silhouette synonymous with 1980's menswear at the time. The coat can really suit a current, modern day size 42/44, or even larger, depending on the thickness of garments layered underneath the overcoat. The mannequin in the photos is a US size 42 Long. Though there are no garments layered beneath the coat on the mannequin, the coat has a very loose fit. Please review the measurements below to ensure an accurate fit: Flat underarm to underarm: 25 Flat waist across: 24" Flat bottom opening: 24-1/2" True, rear shoulder to shoulder: 20" Center-back length: 45" Sleeve length from top of armhole down to edge: 23" *SUEDE SKIN APPEARANCE DISCLAIMER* As shown in the photos the surface of the outer suede skin does have some natural signs of use. Most of the natural, 'rub' wear is mostly at the waist pocket opening edges (see last photo) but can also be seen throughout the outer skin of the coat from having been worn in the snow. The wear is natural, 'rub' & 'shine' type wear which is characteristic for vintage suede skin. There are absolutely no holes or tears. The inside fur lining, as well as the fur collar are in excellent condition. The coat is fully functioning, and completely wearable. All photos included in the ad are a true representation of the coat and it's condition.
