"VIKTOR&ROLF" Sculptural lapel melton coat

Known for their design ability to incorporate the sense of exaggeration and structure cultivated in couture into everyday wardrobes, VIKTOR&ROLF has updated modern elegance by adding a touch of humor and incongruity to the refinement of their tailoring. We present to you this exquisite coat with a striking sculptural collar design.

This masterpiece is based on a deep black melton-style fabric, and its matte finish that absorbs light gives it a stylish appearance, achieving a balance of refinement and experimentation.

The first thing that catches your eye is the wide lapel, plus another layer designed to overlap the neck, which visually strengthens the shadow of the collar, but also leads to a structure that makes it difficult for wind to escape down to the chest when worn, achieving both design and practicality at the same time. The front is kept minimal with a single row of buttons, but by leaving a secondary button point at the top, you can vary the way it is fastened, and the ability to adjust the look depending on the temperature and the thickness of your innerwear is another thoughtful added value unique to this piece.

The material has a subtle brushed texture that gives it a dense appearance, and its contours are not easily distorted, so the line that falls from the shoulders to the body is easily maintained neatly, giving it a modern air without being overly dramatic. The straps on the cuffs not only tighten the hands but also add a small accent to the linear mood of the entire coat, preventing the black surface from looking monotonous. The pockets at the waist are designed not to interfere with the vertical lines, and are designed to give a neat silhouette when closed.

On the back, you can see a yoke-like cut and a center button detail, and while referencing the grammar of classic raincoats and military coats, the amount of white space is neatly controlled, naturally showing the reconstructive perspective that VIKTOR&ROLF is known for.

If you're looking to wear it in your everyday life, rather than just treating it as a basic black coat, you can elevate your outfit while keeping the amount of information to a minimum by making the shadows created by the layers of the collar the main focus.This is especially recommended for those who want to make a modest statement but don't want to look ordinary.

In terms of styling, creating vertical lines with high-quality slacks or a minimalist long skirt will make the structured collar stand out even more, and matching simple knitwear and shirts to create a calming material look will also look beautiful. In addition, adding just one point of texture with leather accessories or neat boots will create a dignified mood regardless of gender.
