The buttons on this coat cost more than the fabric! It was upholstery fabric on sale. This is my go-to coat for any dressy occasion. It is also the warmest coat I have. The inside needs to be re-done because the seams were finished with binding before I got my serger. I didn’t do a very good job. I may get around to it someday…. I made my mother-in-law a purse out of the leftover fabric and she loves it.
