In this version, the traditional opulence is reimagined through richly textured black bouclé fabric. Its tactile surface and deep black tone exude sophistication while keeping the silhouette contemporary.
The design of this long black bouclé women’s coat features a wide collar that frames the neckline with understated drama. A button closure runs down to the knee, keeping you warm while allowing the coat’s structure to flow naturally.

Two practical side pockets keep essentials close at hand, merging function with style.
It comes with a black grommet belt to cinch your waist. This allows you to define the coat’s shape and presence.

A Nod to History: The Banyan
A banyan was a garment that European men and women wore in the late 17th and 18th centuries. The Dutch East India Company introduced the Japanese kimono to Europe in the mid-17th century, and it inspired the banyan’s design. People also called it a morning gown, robe de chambre, or nightgown. Made of cotton, linen, or silk, it was a loose, T-shaped robe that people wore at home as a casual dressing gown or coat over a shirt and breeches. Tailors usually cut it en chemise, with the sleeves and body in one piece, but they also made a fitted, coat-like version with set-in sleeves that buttoned in front.
