Decadent Peacock Trench Coat by Burberry, in a Good Way {Inspirational Look}

OMG, this trench coat by Burberry is just breathtaking. It uses the natural waterproof quality of feathers to turn these into both practical and beautiful adornments for an emerald-colored trench, which is out of this world.

From Burberry, the technical explanations,

The coat is finished with a rich satin collar and heritage-influenced epaulettes, cuff straps and belt. Features & Care : 100% farmed golden peacock feathers, pavo cristatus, India. Base: 100% silk organza. Specialist clean. Made in Italy."

 "Specialist clean", imagine walking up to your neighborhood cleaners and asking them if they know about how to take care of a garment like this! You could perhaps alternatively request the advice of a taxidermist!

Apart from that little practical detail - and the price tag - it's really gorgeous.

Ah yes, the price is €26.725 ($35,000). Available at Burberry.com
