A black quilted velvet coat displaying the geometric precision characteristic of 1960s Space Age design. The garment features a distinctive diamond-pattern quilting that creates textural depth across the entire surface. The coat has a structured A-line silhouette that falls to mid-thigh length, with three-quarter sleeves and a notched lapel collar. The quilting technique creates raised geometric sections that catch light differently, giving dimensional interest to the monochromatic black velvet. The construction appears machine-quilted with consistent spacing between the diamond motifs. The coat fastens with what appears to be concealed closures, maintaining clean lines typical of Givenchy's modernist approach during this period.
