The jacket is double breasted and is trimmed throughout in black- black buttons and black velvet collar. The jacket is a longer length, to mid thigh with just a few inches of the skirt peeking out below.

This is a Ben Zuckerman coat dating from the early 1950's. The coat is princess seamed and flares from the waist, perfect for wearing over a crinoline.
I have found a similar coat, seen here. I believe this coat would have also had a dress that matched the beautiful lining.
