THE WHITE WEDDING COAT

    I've always adored winter white.  This real gem is by designer Marina Astafyeva, a medium weight wool felt wedding coat lined in silk.  Marina's signature look is in mixing textures, colors and off-the-beaten track materials into wearable everyday style.  I knew she was a women after my own heart once I read her motto about how she feels as a designer, "I never compare myself with anyone, never compete. Fashion is a secret."
