Likely dating to the\u003cstrong\u003e late 1970s–1980s\u003c\/strong\u003e, it blends \u003cstrong\u003emilitary elegance\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003egothic\u003c\/strong\u003e, almost \u003cstrong\u003etheatrical atmosphere\u003c\/strong\u003e — deep faded green wool, black velvet details, and heavy gold-tone buttons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts condition is \u003cstrong\u003e“terribly beautiful”\u003c\/strong\u003e. The outer shell has aged with incredible character: \u003cstrong\u003esoft fading, worn edges\u003c\/strong\u003e, and a \u003cstrong\u003edusty antique tone\u003c\/strong\u003e impossible to reproduce artificially. The inner lining is heavily \u003cstrong\u003edistressed\u003c\/strong\u003e and torn throughout, exposing the construction beneath and adding to the coat’s \u003cstrong\u003ehaunting presence\u003c\/strong\u003e. There are also numerous small holes across the piece, many original buttons are missing, and several have been replaced over time with mismatched ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe faded green wool against the dark velvet collar and cuffs creates a \u003cstrong\u003emelancholic, aristocratic mood\u003c\/strong\u003e — something between \u003cstrong\u003eold European formalwear\u003c\/strong\u003e and forgotten \u003cstrong\u003eopera costume archives\u003c\/strong\u003e. The wear here is not a flaw, but the entire character of the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"6595\" data-end=\"6649\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE\u003c\/strong\u003e ≈S men’s.
