Description

The De Bonne Facture Pecan Italian Wool Alpaca Mohair Cloth Overcoat is part of a soft tailoring collection inspired by the connection between workwear and applied academia, as seen in the style of the most prominent professors from the 1950s through the 1990s. With a focus on sustainability and connecting the garment to the landscape, this Overcoat is made from an ethically sourced mulesing-free Wool, Alpaca Wool, and Mohair 20 oz. brushed cloth that is woven in Italy and has a glorious drape. To create a vintage aesthetic with a pure provenance, De Bonne Facture utilized this lightly dyed, brushed cloth with a beautiful and soft hand, unique texture, insulation, and elegantly casual aesthetic. With a minimalist design approach inspired by vintage fashion, each element carries thematic consistency and purpose with details like a point camp collar, single-breasted rolling buttoned front for a business-casual aesthetic in various conditions of fall through winter, set-in sleeves with a broad shoulder and high center back pleat for a comfortable and draped silhouette, and is fully lined in a viscose for a luxuriously finished garment. Paying homage to the original overcoat with sophistication, this piece has a belted front for closure and styling versatility, perfectly placed wide welt lower hand pockets, two interior chest pockets for devices and keepsakes, high character genuine horn buttons, tailor-taped seams, and adjustable tab button cuffs. Being atelier made in Pantin, France, by outerwear specialist M. Erbas provides the soul of fine regional craftsmanship. When combined with the authenticity of fully traceable natural materials, the yield is an artisan piece for the timeless wardrobe of the contemporary fashion connoisseur.
