-SPECIAL- "Salvatore Ferragamo" 90's-00's Alpaca wool oversized shawl collar long coat

Founded in Florence, Italy, in 1927, Salvatore Ferragamo has continued to embody Italian elegance through exceptional shoemaking craftsmanship, the use of fine materials, and refined sculptural beauty. We are pleased to present this exquisite piece, captivating for its luxurious material selection and elegant silhouette.

Crafted with a sumptuous blend of alpaca and wool, this long coat gently drapes and spreads as if to envelop the body, while its oversized shawl collar graces the neckline with elegant character—imbuing a mode-like presence into the timeless presence of a classic coat.

First and foremost is the luxurious composition: 70% alpaca and 30% wool. The fine, characteristic pile of alpaca, along with its soft hand feel, brings depth and dimensionality throughout the coat. Combined with rich, dark tones, the result is a finish in which the quality of the materials themselves truly stands out.

Alpaca is a natural fiber known for its excellent insulation properties and lightweight, airy feel derived from its fiber structure. In this piece as well, the delicate texture of its fibers and the plush fabric create warmth that is well suited to winter wear.
In addition, the neckline features an oversized shawl collar that curves broadly—its sweeping line flows from the shoulders toward the chest, giving the face a softer impression while beautifully enhancing the coat’s overall volume.

In particular, the generous silhouette created by the wide collar offers an elegance reminiscent of a classic robe coat. When the front is left open, natural drape falls from the collar to the body, allowing you to enjoy a different expression depending on how you wear it.
Furthermore, from the shoulder area through to the sleeves, the design is intentionally relaxed so it does not cling to the body’s lines. A line that flows vertically from the shoulder to the hem is formed, resulting in a streamlined look while making full use of the generous quantity of fabric.

Also, the front is fitted with vertically arranged, rounded metal buttons. The understated luster of the hardware adds a subtle accent to the matte, pile-textured fabric. Within the coat’s overall composition, which keeps decoration to a minimum, the buttons stand out just enough to create balance and definition in an otherwise simple design. When the front is closed, the beautiful vertical line from the neckline to the hem is emphasized even more.

The pocket openings feature a natural three-dimensional feel that takes advantage of the fabric’s thickness, making it a detail that not only offers practicality but also delivers an elegant presence when you place your hands there.

In addition, based on the brand tag bearing the cursive Salvatore Ferragamo logo, the Made in Italy indication, and the specifications for the material and components, this piece is likely to have been produced from the 1990s to the 2000s. Enjoy the generous form and fine material craftsmanship that epitomized Italian luxury of that era.

For styling, we recommend pairing a classic shirt or a tailored jacket with wide slacks, then wearing this coat loosely and comfortably to create a sophisticated look that interprets Italian elegance in a contemporary way.
You can also enjoy an elegant, calm styling by pairing it with a long skirt or a drape-effect dress, which enhances the soft curves of the shawl collar and the rich texture of the alpaca material.
Moreover, by combining a simple top with straight-leg trousers and incorporating leather shoes at the feet, you can make the coat’s luxurious volume the star while smoothly integrating it into everyday wear as well.

Please take this opportunity.
