Opera coats have long been worn throughout history to establish a powerful and regal precise. They attract attention and respect without a lot of frills. When they first emerged, they were traditionally ankle length, loose-fitting and made from luxurious fabrics that only the wealthy could afford, such as brocade, velvet or satin.

Our Empire Opera Coat incorporates the classic styling of a formal tailcoat from the past, but with a steampunk twist. It has been crafted from high-quality black brocade while artificial seal-skin lapels add richness to the garment. The gear buttons are made from antiqued brass and a real watch pocket finishes the look. The inner lining is satin so even if you take your jacket off, it will be attractive draped over the back of your chair. Order S, M, L or XL.
