A vintage hip-length jacket crafted from real rabbit fur, dyed in a deep burgundy colour. The garment features a boxy silhouette typical of the early 1980s, with broad notched lapels and a wide collar. It is designed with full-length set-in sleeves and a colour-matched synthetic lining. Two interior labels are present; a care label which specifies the item is real fur, notes it is prone to shedding, and lists an address in Rayners Lane, London. A second label identifies the country of origin as Hong Kong. The inscription R.S. 81 indicates a production or stock year of 1981.
