Speaking of statements, a fur intarsia coat should be added to the list if you’ve been a very, very good girl. Brightly colored, generously styled and durable, most designers now include some version of the fur intarsia into their collections. J. Mendel gave us a study in the brilliant and beautiful. A candy apple red mink walking coat with electric blue pin stripping and silk lining was simply stunning. The fur intarsia coat has become a mainstay for its mix and match versatility and its go anywhere functionality. Salvatore Ferragamo crafted a 3/4 mink and curly lamb coat in multi colors and a geo design- unforgettable and original. Just know, the fur intarsia coat works wonders over your jammies when dropping your kids off at school in the winter mornings.
