“I’ve always loved the nonchalant attitude of dressing gowns and bathrobes.”
This silk faille balmacaan debuted on the Fall 1992 runway, worn by Canadian model Yasmeen Ghauri. Designed in a relaxed silhouette, the overcoat showcases a rich mix of textures. Black hand-embroidered paillettes create a shimmering effect, while the interior is lined with sumptuous faux mink. The indulgent materials are offset by the coat’s casual silhouette, creating a sophisticated effect. “Yasmeen shrugged this off her shoulders as casually as a terrycloth robe,” Michael remembers. “It was the perfect coat to wear at night in 1992 and it still is today.”
