Re: Noel Coward's Purple Jacket
'Noel Coward was a charmer.
'The Gay Divorce' and other dramas......
He didn't do 'The Mona Lisa'.
That was an Eyetalian Geezer.'

Re: Noel Coward's Purple Jacket
Coward was definitely a non conformist, a go his own way sort and essentially a dandy. One way to find your own style is to wear what you like. I understand that this is very difficult for most people to understand. Like anything else, you see when it is opened to you and then you cannot see how you missed it all before.

Re: Noel Coward's Purple Jacket
I wouldnt do purple, although I have a serge jacket in a medium blue that definitely has some purple undertone.
however, I have a red jacket which is double breasted made out of Hunt pink red (Which is a brilliant scarlet). I also have a piece of scarlet cashmere that I will make into a single breasted three button or one button jacket.
