1919 Red Army Coat?
Sometimes I wish I was rich. This coat on ebay looks an amazing piece of clothing history. The 1919 Red army uniform was subject to a competition that was to involve many of the top Soviet artists and the result chosen by a committee. It is quite a futuristic uniform with a very brave pointed hat that was intended to refer back to Russia's medieval history. Anyone know anything about this particular style of coat - I was fantasising that this might actually really sell on the catwalk and my daughter - 19 - walked by and said, 'wow, nice coat, what is it?' SO there's the evidence fashion community. Only make me one first.
