If you're willing: [link]

I personally ordered it (ffffsavingggss) and it is 100% better than I imagined. it's lined and quite weighty, and oh so worth it XD Its my new winter coat.... I thought: hey, if I need a new coat (my 4 year old one was too small) I'M GETTING THIS.

Oh yeah, I've seen that...But i don't have that much $ to spend freely...yet!!! I'm saving for it.
Ok, so, it's really good quality, then??? I was a bit afraid that it would be crap...Good to know, then!

Quality is actually amazing. It's honestly not a costume: it's a fantastic coat. X'D
I was wearing it when I went to an alteration sewing shop to get some pants fixed, and the lady asked me where I got my coat. I told her how much it was and she was in shock. It's that worth it : P

Wow- ok, alot more tempted. So you DEFINITELY got it from that link?...(I know, I'm nuts, but...could you send the link again, so I'm sure i have the right one? sry ) And...the coat pictured on the sight looks alot lighter...and different. Or am i still being nuts?

kuiwi In reply to trickster201 [2012-02-22 01:57:05 +0000 UTC]

XD Ha ha!

Yes it does in the picture, but the fabric they used for mine is different from that one? And most of the pictures on that site are slightly saturated.
THERE ARE ACTUALLY TWO VERSIONS BY THE WAY:
The wool (which i sent you) [link]
and linen version [link]

I actually ordered the linen because the fabric looked better, but they said they were out of the fabric and they would give me the wool for just 10$ extra. *shrug* my coat fabric actually looks a lot like the linen version they show. it has a bit of shiny thread in it looks good! the red also isn't that bright on the button holes. its a good deep colour.

*end long reply*

trickster201 In reply to kuiwi [2012-02-22 02:22:02 +0000 UTC]

oh well see, is the fabric a solid black? (sorry for asking annoying questions, i want to know if buying the coat will be worth it )

Tarte: I don't believe you have! Unfortunately, all I can tell you is that the coat I wore was sitting in my closet for god-knows how long, so I got lucky. ): If you're looking for long coats, my suggestion to you is trying thrift stores? Or looking online for used coats.
The one that I use for Sherlock isn't terribly accurate, mind you, but it's just swoopy and long enough to pass.
Good luck and happy finding!
