Before there were paved roads and sidewalks, ladies relied on long dust coats to protect their fine skirts and blouses from road grime. Our reproduction captures that practical elegance in a timeless silhouette.

Crafted from 100% cotton twill for a soft drape and comfortable wear, this full-length coat features a six-button front, long sleeves with folded cuffs, and an adjustable button tab at the back for a more customized fit. Two top-opening front patch pockets with decorative flaps add both charm and function.

Unlined for lightweight layering. Imported. Machine wash cold or dry clean. Offered in several colors.

Lovely

I really like this car coat for the most part. I wish the lapels were a little bit longer to make it look a little bit more Victorian, or early Edwardian as well little bit more feminine. However, the fabric is nice and thin, which makes it ideal for early fall, late spring, or dusty rhodes. This coat has no lining in it, which is also nice because it doesn't make it overly thick or heavy. The pockets are nice and big, and although I think the skirt of the coat could be a little bit wider to accommodate full skirts, it's not a bad fit.

Nicely made

I have not worn it yet, but I will be wearing at a Christmas parade as I walk beside my husbands 1916 Model T.

Don't believe the size chart

By following the size chart I was comfortably in the middle of medium. Alas, it was too tight and had to pay a small fortune in postage to return if for a larger size and will be charged again for postage for the new one.

Exactly What I Needed

I needed a duster that would match with an Old West cosplay I am putting together, and this was perfect. But the thing I love most is that it is stylish enough to incorporate into my everyday wardrobe as well. Looking forward to getting a lot of wears out of this great coat.

Fantastic coat!

This coat fit true to size, and I love the weight of it - not too heavy, not too light. The best thing about it is it has pockets!!!

FANTASTIC AS ALWAYS

I've been purchasing clothes, hats and more for years at the Historical Emporium. When I can't find what I want anywhere else in the word, I just come to the Historical Emporium. I love period clothing and wanted a duster like I purchased for so long. I waited years to get one. Couldn't find it anywhere.

Fits just great. If it didn't I know I'd have no problem returning it or exchanging it. Historical Emporium has the most amazing and friendly customer service. It's like shopping at an old country store with amazing service. It's sort of like going back to a time when personal real live people care which at this time is rare.

I can't say enough about all of my purchases from Historical Emporium and can't wait to get more soon! Thank you!

I've always loved the look of a coat like this, and I wasn't disappointed when I received mine. As I'm very short it hangs lower on me, but I think that makes it look even better!

Ladies Twill Duster

I love this coat! It is perfect for California winters and might run a tad bit large, but can easily be adjusted. It took a bit longer to receive than I thought, but it was worth the wait.

Ladies Twill Duster - Black

This was purchased as a gift, and the recipient was very pleased. Size small fits a young, thin frame well. The shoulders lined up perfectly, but the waist runs rather large for a small coat. This is a very simple fix, though; the buttons on the back-gathering straps can easily be sewn in another place according to one's waist, or the straps can just be tied together for a different look. The quality is superb, especially considering the low price. Highly recommended.

Lovely, evocative, coat

I just got my twill duster and I am very pleased with it. It is made of a medium thickness of cotton and would be a good autumn coat. The detailing (the way it buttons at the back) is excellent and the cut is extremely faithful to the original style coats. The price is excellent for what you get, and I can't wait to wear it.
