A Versatile Coat Dress

Add some elegance to your Spring wardrobe with "White Hyacinth".  By simply removing the original sash, this smartly tailored coat dress becomes a canvas for a palette of versatile accessorizing.

There is nothing more chic than black paired with white.  Hat and bow are from The Couture Touch.  Gloves and bracelet are from Ashton Drake.  Handbag from Mattel.

A mix of luscious colors, anchored with a touch of black, add sophistication to this distinctive look.  Hat, gloves, scarf, and corsage are from The Couture Touch.  Belt from JamieShow.  Hat box is from Robert Tonner, embellished with trim from the original White Hyacinth hat.

White Hyacinth was designed by Doug James for Ashton Drake's 1997 Gene Marshall Collection.  Circa 1946.  Photo courtesy Gene Marshall Wiki.

  1. Of course the accessories steal the show for me. The coat is a great backdrop. The hats are way too cool.

    Thanks Don
