Bette Appel

 circa 1980’s. A VIVIACIOUS , fuschia raspberry colored wool coat black zipper pocket accents along the chest. Front hidden black zipper closure. Detachable bottom coat goes from full length to mid-length by unzipping. Button closures at collar and mid knee area. Dolman sleeves, which narrow at cuff. True modern size 8/10, meant to be slouchy and oversized, padded shoulders…of course.
