The iconic CoCo Channel tweed suit.  In junior high and high school I always dreamed of owning one.  Which is funny, because I wore jeans almost every day.  I'd steal shirts from my brother's closet or wear one of my many white v-neck tshirts, and I wore Dr Marten's and Birkenstocks (with socks).

When we escaped the Texas Panhandle for the summer and went to Houston - I would see my mother's Neiman Marcus catalogs come to life.  Beautiful women, doing important things, in the best clothes.

It's a long coat not cropped, and there's a collar - oh, it's not tweed either.  You might not see it, but I do.  There's something about the texture of this kantha, this coat - that's reminds me of Channel Tweed.  Threads are tied off when they start and stop - not hidden like you typically see on a kantha.  It creates this "nubby" look/feel.

With this coat, styled just right, with great hair and makeup - I would feel like the downtown girls that I envied growing up.

C111 is a midweight piece with alot of texture.  Reminds me of a woven textile.  It has a structured shape.
