The Wool Crepe Coat is designed, printed and made in England. It has a straight fit, with the stepped hemline falling to shin-height. The coat features light shoulder pads to offer gentle structure and an elegantly elevated neckline. The coat has pockets in the side seams and features side slits for ease of movement. The sleeves are gently fitted with functioning brass snaps hidden within the lower sleeve. The coat is constructed from a 100% wool crepe outer and is lined in a beautifully thick satin. It features a hidden button placket at the centre front concealing bespoke, subtly branded horn-style buttons.
This design references many elements of the arts and culture of Edo-period Japan. It features a pair of black tailed jackrabbits on the centre back, each wearing a miniature kawari kabuto (strange helmet), featuring stylised metal and lacquer rabbit ears. These helmets are based on true artefacts from Edo-period Japan. Behind the protagonists is a layered, grassy hillside which sweeps elegantly around the entire garment. The landscape is teeming with white rabbits and silver reeds, and a round, glowing moon in the sky. The cuff borders feature lacquered and ivory animal-shaped menuki, tiny carved sword grips created in almost-matching pairs. Above and below the menuki sits a striped flagpole edging. Throughout the design, details and measurements are noted in Japanese hand-script, echoing ancient zoological manuscripts from the 17th century. A stamp/seal bearing a silhouetted rabbit and the name Sabina Savage brands the lower back panel.
