A bit of history….

This coat was purchased as part of the extensive wardrobe belonging to an astute woman of fashion (I call her Leopard Lady as she loved leopard print) who lived to 100 years. Her daughter informed me that up until the age of 70 she always wore heels, hats and a handbag and was recognized and admired in her local high street in the Midlands.

She was a statuesque 5 feet 7 inches (170 cm) and her items are marked between size 18 - 20. By today’s standards, the clothes often come up smaller and I therefore mention the modern day size alongside any marked size.

The collection purchased includes coats, blouses, dresses, bags, hats (Large fit) and shoes (Fit 39 / UK 6) which will be listed for sale.

A series of related fashion shoot style posts are appearing on the Marshmallowvintage Instagram. This dress has been featured.


There is no size label. In my opinion the fit is an M / L  or UK 12 / 14 with a generous bust.

We advise that you check all the measurements below.

The garment is a mid-weight and is  unlined

Very Good Condition. Some stitching sto sequins visible on the back (see close-up)  - INSIGNIFICANT

Where video is shown (depending on the platform) I am shown modelling it. My build is an M /  UK 12 / M, 5'4" with broad shoulders, short torso and long legs.
