Coat 1860 - 1896

"Coat," created by French artist Émile Pingat between 1860 and 1896, is a striking example of late 19th-century fashion. The black coat, crafted from satin and featuring intricate lace detailing, showcases the ornate and elaborate styles popular during the era. The coat's voluminous sleeves and elaborate lace trimmings, including a delicate lace overlay, contribute to its dramatic aesthetic. Currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, this garment provides valuable insight into the artistry and sophistication of fashion during this period.
