Lina’s striped traveling coat from movie “Suspicion” gave me idea of the garment. I just wanted to add few bold details. This sleeveless coat is to be worn over a shirt, blouse or sleeved dress. It is made with a textile-like fabric that features striped / speckled stranded colorwork. The double breasted button closure is both functional and decorative.
