Reluctantly parting with a cherished item from my closet: my $2000 (over $3500 with inflation) Lida Baday maxi silk/wool blend 3-season coat
Purchased in the late 1990s
Black/grey/white European tweed blend is 55% silk, 44% wool, and 1% elastane
Maxi length with deep V-collar and 2-button closure
Slightly tapered waist
High back slit and long unbuttoned bottom front
Long sleeves have 2-button closure at cuff
Intended as an evening coat but can also be worn as business attire or what I call "celebrity casual" (jeans, t-shirt, boots, expensive maxi coat; see last 3 pics for inspiration)
In AS-NEW condition
Made in Canada
Size Small
Marked a 6 but sizes have changed; check measurements:
Shoulder width: 15.65"
Back width: 18"
Waist: 31"
Sleeve length: 23.5"
Length from nape: 53.5"
Selling because, at 5'3", I can only wear this coat with high heels, but I broke my foot and can no longer wear high heels. I don't want to shorten this beautiful coat and potentially mess up the proportions. I'll leave that to you to decide, if necessary.

Can I ask what size you wear now? I’m a 4, sometimes 2. Never 6. I’m 5’2. 125 lbs. This coat is likely too big?

@ccookhfx I'm a 0 or 2 now, depending on the designer. 5'3", 105 lbs and still trying to get my weight back. It's a bit big in the torso now. I was hoping to hang on until I filled it again, but the broken foot was the last nail in this beautiful coat's coffin for me. I can only recommend you compare the measurements provided with a similar style (fitted) coat you own.

@vancouverfindss Hello! Thank you for liking my coat. I've decided not to make any offers until after the postal strike ends, so as to avoid cancelled purchases. The coat is available elsewhere as well, so that's my focus now.
