Of course, and you can see why, there aren't complete size or color ranges, but there are some junior, some misses' sizes and some bright colors in addition to blacks, greys, browns, and greens. A few each of reefer, tuxedo, and semi-fitted styles. Fur-trims art leopard, nutria, beaver, Persian, mink. If your wardrobe has been asking for a dress coat, with four maybe youH find it wearing one of these Yellow Tickets.
