Rare Emporio Armani 1990s trench coat in ivory cotton, cut oversized with the easy, utilitarian line the label built its name on.

The cotton is crisp and finely woven with a soft matte finish. Wide notched lapels open over a concealed front placket, the shoulders drop, and the sleeves end in broad stitched cuffs. A hood buttons at the back of the neck beneath the collar. The waist is elasticated and shirred, cinched with a tie belt at the front, and the hem draws in on a drawstring for a softly gathered, rounded shape that sits away from the body.

Wear it belted over a slip for a dress effect, as shown, or left open and loose over tailoring and denim. An easy piece from Emporio Armani's 1990s output (circa 1993 - 1994), when the younger line translated the house's soft construction into relaxed everyday outerwear.

Composition: 100% cotton

Condition: small orange-brown mark on the front belt panel, plus light yellowing and surface marks in places, barely noticeable when worn. Please see photos.
