"O Kije was a hussar bold
A hussar bold was ....she?
She fought so bravely for the Tsar
The pride of the cavalry!"
 
I feel so powerful in this when it is belted here I have done with an obi - which I will include -  it is divine and has that strong Russian Tsarist period look to it. Slightly padded & puffed shoulder and beautiful full & slightly balloon sleeves into princess cuff with a different faux fur which also trims the front and collar. LAte 1970s early 1980s in good vintage condition faux karakul fur velvet. Made in Canada by Sterling Stall who did some lovely coats at this time.
 
Will fit from size 8-12. Maybe a 14.
