I love it!  I want it!  Love the colors and the texture!  Very useful; the colors would make it go with everything!

Pretty, but I'm thankful it would not flatter me.  I don't even have to be envious.

Too much going on - too many colors and textures.

IMO it's a piece of wearable art. I like the textures and appliques sticking up from the coat.  If only it were $50,900 cheaper, I'd buy one! Smiley Happy

Sorry, no matter how thin nor how rich one is, this is a no.

Love it!

 

Something like looks rather easy to make.   It's just a fabric base with attached flowers.  

 

It would probably cost me about $200 in materials to make something similar using decent fabric and yarns.   The biggest cost is labor.  Not difficult - but time consuming to make all those flowers.  

 

ETA:  Looking at the closeup - it looks like all the flowers are sewn on by hand ... no wonder the high price.
