Trapeze Act

Come springtime, I live for this coat! When it comes to off-the-rack architectural design, I believe that BCBG can do no wrong. With its swinging trapeze cut and retro appeal, it is a marvel that you would find me in anything else. I've often thought to wear a pair of long gloves with it; Wouldn't that just top it off? The coat has a deceivingly grainy, burlap looking knit to it, but it is soft as ever and light as can be. I realize that it can be hard to get a sense for the true color of things when I "analog age" these digital photos, so I've included a few unprocessed images below for your reference. Pardon all the wrinkles on the back of the coat, I had been sitting for hours and didn't think it had a profound effect on the jacket until I saw these photos.
