LATE VICTORIAN OPERA CLOAK beads and feather trim Victorian  antique opera cloak %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
This is a very elegant Victorian opera cloak from the 1890s made of a fine wool fabric in dove grey, and trimmed with a border of sheared feathers and a handmade couched decoration of silver braid and beading. The shoulders are slightly gathered. It is full length with a generous train at the back which falls in pleats from the edge of the V shaped yoke. The yoke is also trimmed with braid and bead work and there are five long tassels which hang down from it. It is lined with golden yellow silk. There is a tiny pocket inside the front edge, which can been in the last photograph.

The measurement across the shoulders is approximately 17 inches (43 cms.) and the front length from top of the shoulder to the hem is 56 inches (142 cms.).

The condition of the cloak is very good, but there are a few small moth holes in the wool and the lining has failed in some places. This has been repaired so that the garment can be worn, but this work can easily be removed if the garment is required in its original condition. The overall appearance is excellent considering its age and it is a very elegant and flattering garment.
