Not our normal period...1961! Lol!!

But the design and quality of construction is AMAZING.

Imagine, a coat pattern with just 4 pieces...genius.

This plaid coat is a masterpiece of construction. Cut from two main pieces of fabric (with small inset shoulder yokes and a one-piece collar), its shape is achieved primarily by means of judiciously placed darts in the sleeves and collar.

Both the top and underside of the collar are molded with 24 darts — 12 on each side — that are nearly invisible. It is difficult to see them because they are perfectly aligned with the grids of the plaid fabric.

“Dior + Balenciaga: The Kings of Couture and their Legacies” is on view until November 6, 2022.
