Style & Aesthetic
An absolute showstopper of a garment: a rare Brand New With Tags (BNWT) deadstock vintage women’s luxury longline maxi coat from David Barry London. Proudly Made in England, this elegant piece is tailored from a premium 75% virgin wool and 5% cashmere mix, giving it a beautifully heavy drape, exceptional structure, and an incredibly soft finish. It features a plush, deep black detachable faux fur shawl collar that can be buttoned off completely to reveal a clean neckline. Cut in a striking, sweeping tailored silhouette with a dramatic single-button front closure, a clean pocketless profile, and a full inner lining, this piece flawlessly blends glamorous winter-wear with alternative gothic and classic dark academia fashion.
Condition
Brand New With Tags (BNWT). Pristine, unworn deadstock condition with the original vintage factory cardboard paper tags and plastic attachments completely intact. The premium black wool-cashmere blend fabric is completely crisp and dark with zero fading, dust, pilling, or surface wear. The removable faux fur collar is completely soft and fluffy, and the full inner lining is flawless.
Sizing Advice (Important Vintage Fit Note)
While the original vintage neck label reads a UK 18, vintage sizing from this era runs significantly smaller than modern high-street clothes. Based on the flat measurements, this garment fits beautifully as a modern UK 12 to UK 14 depending on desired layering underneath. Please check measurements carefully below.
