A homage to all the ladies from the 1970s to the first decade of the new millennium who were sophisticated enough to button up a long leather coat over an elegant outfit and strut their stuff. Sleek leather coats disappeared from mainstream fashion for a while, but their popularity may be on the rise once more. This page is dedicated to those who hope that such classic style finds its way back into women's wardrobes again someday.
Beauty, blonde hair and wondrous white porcelain skin. Those three elements play off wonderfully against black leather. Especially the black leather of a long leather ankle length maxi coat. The blonde hair and white skin contrast wonderfully against the black leather. There is nothing more beautiful than. Each one are so lady like in their elegance and poise. It is the second picture that really grabs the attention. She looks so sophisticated in her long black leather coat and matching leather scarf. One can imagine her being totally intoxicated by the aroma of the leather scarf so close to her face and beautiful white skin.The creaking of the black leather coat as she walks in those gorgeous pointed black leather boots would be so stunning and stimulating on her senses. This is an Ode to the Black Leather Coat and beautiful, blonde white women. Let us have more of this.
I am one of those svelte, porcelain-skinned, blonde-haired 30-something ladies who is very passionate about black leather. Not the faux garbage, the real, sensual animal skin. I own 10 hip-length black lambskin jackets, which are amazing in their own right. The only garment I'm missing in my life is an ankle-length, black lambskin leather maxi coat. I would have been in high school in 2004, so unfortunately I had no opportunity to don the Belle Epoque. I have commissioned a high-end clothier to create an exact replica of the Danier Belle Epoque for my 5'3, 110lb frame. There are long coats made these days, including Danier, but most of them are midi (mid-calf), and don't have that sharp tailoring in the bodice that the Belle Epoque has. So, I decided to go all-out and have one made. A huge thank you to you, Cuirbouilli, for creating this awesome blog and posting all these photos. It's extremely difficult to find archival photos of vintage Danier long coats online. I even wrote Danier to ask if they could provide any patterns or sketches of the piece, but their company has new ownership now. Because of all the work you poured into this blog, in a few months, I'll be very fortunate to wear a bespoke replica of the Belle Epoque. What a fitting name, Beautiful Era.
P.S. I'm in the middle of reading all of your stories, and they are very enjoyable. Great work. My favorite one is your memoir. I can feel how much you cherish your wife through your writing. Passionate, good husbands are a rare breed. My husband is part of that breed as well. Keep up the blogging!
