An exceptionally striking runway piece from the brand’s iconic early-2000s period. Cut in a structured, elongated silhouette, the coat combines black leather with contrasting white leather sleeves and bold red and electric-blue leather trim. The design is packed with signature moto-inspired details, including multiple exposed zippers, oversized utility pockets, contrasting leather panels, a fitted leather collar and articulated shoulder construction.
The coat was seen on the Spring 2001 runway and was also worn by singer Anastacia, making it a particularly desirable and recognizable piece from this highly sought-after Dolce & Gabbana era.
The dramatic color-blocked construction gives the piece an unmistakably early-2000s attitude, while the elongated silhouette makes it surprisingly versatile. It looks particularly striking worn open, but can also be cinched with a belt for a more fitted silhouette. Although the original belt is not included, it can easily be styled with any belt of your choice. The coat also looks excellent worn loose and unbelted.
Size: IT 46 / approximately US 6–8
The coat runs somewhat small for its marked size and is best suited to a US 6–8 depending on desired fit. It can also be styled on smaller sizes, particularly when cinched with a belt.
Measurements are recommended for the best fit:
Armpit to armpit: 49 cm / 19.3”
Waist, closed: 45 cm / 17.7”
Hips: 53 cm / 20.9”
Shoulder to shoulder: 42 cm / 16.5”
Length from shoulder: 108 cm / 42.5”
Condition: Good vintage condition.
The leather shows subtle signs of age throughout, including small, scattered marks consistent with the vintage nature of the piece. The coat has been professionally cleaned, and the minor marks have been taken into consideration in the pricing. They are subtle and do not detract from the overall appearance or impact of the garment when worn.
There is also a small scratch on the shoulder, located close to the seam. It is extremely subtle and essentially unnoticeable when worn; it could additionally be addressed by a leather specialist if desired. Please refer to the detailed photographs for condition.
Belt not included.
