I have a Dennis Basso coat similar to this coat already, so I need to understand what makes this one different. Wonder what the fabric is on the non-fur side? Right now I'm on the fence.

Sheesh, we must have the same DB coat. I have had it for a couple of years and it still looks brand new so I definitely do not need another one like it. Actually, I think I may have 2. One is of a similar water repellant material reversible to fur with a hood.

I do love those stone pants!

Wowee wow wow! And I told myself I'd skip the stone items! Hah! I have my Mom's old mouton jacket from the 50s and have always loved the look and feel. I keep revising my October 27th list because each new sneak peek takes my breath away. Bye bye poncho (sniff).

I have the previous Slim Pants in Black and Olive, so I may get the Stone.

I have lots of DB coats, although many are too big now, including some of my favorites.

What is the item number of your DB coat?

The reversible fur has a fabric that looks like a rain coating with a mouton like fur….no wool at all. It is a walking coat length 35 Inches?? I’m not home to measure. It’s like a wrap coat with buttons and a big shawl collar. It come with a tie belt. So on one side you have a black or stone rain type fabric and on the other side a black fur.

Thanks, I'm still on the fence.

Re: Sneak Peek New SLIM PANT.......AND.......

I have been waiting for these pants. My only problem is that the Regular is going to be 30"" inseam. I am afraid that may be too short and I am heartsick over it! How does someone who is 5'8 or 5'9 wear these slim pants? With what shoes? Shooties? I just want to make sure the pants don't look too short. I have purchased all the olive tops (and a couple of the stone) in anticipation of these pants.

Is that A226688? I ordered it and then cancelled. Decided I didn't need it. I'm still wearing the very first (and only)DB faux fur I bought from him. It's probably fifteen years old. He brought it back this year is a slightly different style.

Years ago I had a khaki fabric coat with a faux fur lining that the cleaners ruined. I didn't know I had to have it ""fur cleaned."" Love the look.

This trend toward shorter than normal pants is so irritating. I believe the super ponte pants in petite didn't sell because many women who usually buy petite sizes bought regular sizes because the length was so short. I hope Louis and/or QVC reverses this trend soon.

I would love to try these pants but a 30 inch in seam is way too short for me! This is why I wear jeans so often - I can get them long enough. Glad I did not purchase items to go with them already.

I got the skirts in both Olive and Stone... but sure would have loved the slim pants. At 30", there's just no way. So unfortunate.
