Delightful and unexpected jacket by Oscar de la Renta. This hip - length black coat features a glossy crackle coated brown fabric that is accented by a bold but supple houndstooth print on the collar. The collar is something else! It folds over the shoulders, cape - like, and rests on the arms. The waist is cinched and accented by a belt with houndstooth edging and a lucite tortoiseshell buckle. Flap closure pockets at hip. Houndstooth lining. Fabric and pattern mixing at its finest.
This jacket was a part of Look 3 from the Fall 2007 runway. See final image for runway photo.
