The Trench Coat Project: Unveiling!

*Psst* I leaked The Trench Coat Project idea last week and before the suspense gets the best of you, *drumroll* ... ... ...

Meet Before:


And After:

To purchase #1 in the series visit my Etsy Store.

Born from a freak mistake with bleach leaving one of the lovely large spots you see, I've raised the hem, given it a flirty tuxedo line which is higher in front and gradually gets longer towards the back and have painstakingly hand distressed the giraffe print into the fabric. What I love, is that I left the belts on the waist and cuffs and the epaulets on the shoulders the original color so they and the buttons offer a delicious contrast to the giraffe print. The inside received the treatment too and looks great!
