A B O U T

This iconic 1960s coat by Bonnie Cashin for Sills perfectly embodies the designer’s signature blend of utility, comfort, and bold modernity. Rendered in a vivid, persimmon brushed wool, the coat features supple matching leather trim at the collar, cuffs, and oversized patch pockets—hallmarks of Cashin’s pioneering work in leather detailing.

The silhouette is softly structured yet relaxed, with raglan sleeves and a straight cut that drapes beautifully on the body. Gold-tone turn-lock closures—another Cashin trademark—add a chic functional accent down the front. Fully lined and exquisitely finished, this piece captures Cashin’s belief that clothing should empower women to move freely while maintaining impeccable style.

Bonnie Cashin, one of America’s most influential sportswear designers, revolutionized mid-century fashion with her practical yet luxurious designs. As head designer for Sills & Co. from the 1950s through the 1970s, she helped define the concept of “American sportswear” and introduced innovative elements—such as leather trim, brass hardware, and modular layering—that later influenced her work for Coach.
