"CELINE" 80's Velvet collar maxi coat dress

"CELINE"
80's Velvet-collared black maxi coat dress

From CELINE, founded in Paris in 1945 and built on impeccable craftsmanship and refined, practical beauty, we present a classical masterpiece.

With a poised black long dress as its foundation, this piece pairs a large velvet-textured collar with a deep sheen and turned-back cuff details, creating a striking contrast in texture within a monochromatic design.

The bodice appears to be made primarily of wool, offering a soft feel while keeping the vertical lines sleek and refined. The silhouette flows straight from a relatively compact shoulder area down to near the ankles, wrapping the body while maintaining a tidy, streamlined presence.

At the center of the front, a detail reminiscent of a long, hidden button placket is crafted. On both sides, three-dimensional pockets are placed to take advantage of diagonal lines, adding subtle depth to a design that keeps decoration restrained. The CELINE-engraved buttons at the collar also add an understated yet unmistakable sense of distinction.

With a zipper beneath the collar at the back, the structure allows for easy on and off without compromising the minimalist look at the front. When the cuffs are turned back, the velvet-textured cuffs tighten the appearance around the hands, achieving both the structured character typical of a coat dress and the elegance unique to a dress.

In addition to the labels that state CELINE PARIS, MADE IN FRANCE, and MARQUE DEPOSEE on the woven tag in generated color, it is also possible to confirm older Japanese quality-label specifications and care label details. Therefore, it can be determined as a French vintage piece, centered around the 1980s, and its rarity—preserving the classical motifs and careful tailoring of the Maison to the present day—is a major part of its appeal.

Perfect for those who want to naturally incorporate the substantial richness of a vintage piece into everyday life without relying on elaborate embellishments, and especially recommended for anyone seeking a black dress with quiet strength.

Styled with long boots, it creates a poised, modern look. By revealing slim trousers underneath, it can be worn for a more contemporary balance that still resembles a long coat. Keep jewelry understated, and let the depth created by the velvet-textured collar and cuffs be the star of this exceptional piece.

We invite you to take this opportunity.
