The ’60s.

1919. Paris.

Shes walking next to him on Quai dOrsay, admiring his double-breasted long tweed coat blowing in the cold wind.

1969. London.

Hes walking next to her on Piccadilly Circus, admiring her double-breasted long tweed coat blowing in the cold wind. In the recesses of his mind, he cant help but think it looks familiar somehow.

The 60s were about changing things, making them your own. Experimenting with the conventional and exhibiting a healthy disrespect of experts and authority.

The idea of the Maxi style started as a sentiment, really, that fed this emotional rebellion. It then turned into a style. Longer was unusual. More interesting. European. Exciting.

Finally, it became this coat.
