"Burberrys" 80's Classic double breasted wool cashmere maxi coat

"Burberrys’"
80s French-made wool cashmere maxi coat

Rooted in British tradition, Burberrys’ has created refined outerwear beloved across generations. From Burberrys’, we are pleased to present a piece renowned for its classic presence and beauty.

The deep dark color, the maxi length reaching near the hem, and the substantial double-breasted construction come together in perfect harmony—creating a poised, dignified presence simply by wearing it.

The outer fabric uses a coat cloth blended primarily of 75% wool, with 10% cashmere and 15% polyamide. While it offers a gentle, brushed-like texture and soft warmth, it also maintains a pleasing firmness that helps preserve a crisp outline. As a result, even with its long length, the silhouette remains well-structured, and—paired with its rich, deep color—it creates luxurious shadows with every movement.

The wide, carefully designed lapels impart a distinguished impression around the face. The buttons arranged neatly along the front highlight the structural character unique to a double-breasted design. From a clearly defined shoulder line to a form that flows straight-like down to the hem, complemented by the left and right flap pockets, this coat achieves a sophisticated balance that feels unmistakably British—without relying on excessive decoration.

Inside, it is fully lined with smooth 100% acetate, making it practical and easy to slip on even over knits or jackets. The main woven label includes the Burberrys’ spelling used before the brand name was reorganized in 1999, along with a mounted knight motif. Along with concise quality markings that include both French and English to indicate it is made in France, and taking into account the broader lapels and vertically elongated proportions, this coat is well understood as a vintage piece from the older tag period, centered around the 1980s. Its sense of time differs from contemporary items, and that difference is its undeniable value.

The listed size is 36. While it takes advantage of the maxi length’s enveloping presence to make a statement, the vertical lines keep the outfit neatly refined. It is particularly recommended for those who wish to incorporate a classic coat into everyday styling with good taste, as well as for those who want to express individuality through the quality of the materials and tailoring. In the image, it appears in a deep shade reminiscent of dark navy close to black, and it naturally complements everything from dress styling to minimalist looks.

For styling, you can keep it polished by pairing a high-gauge knit with wide slacks. Alternatively, add texture by wearing faded denim or leather shoes and enjoy the coat’s substantial vintage character in a contemporary way. Whether you wear it open for an elegant movement created by the lapels and long length, or button it for a structured silhouette that stands out—this is the kind of piece that can serve as the axis of your style for years to come.

Please, by all means, take this opportunity.
