Rich chocolate stripes sweep across a warm tawny ground, resolving into oversized tiger faces that emerge dramatically across the body and sleeves. A deep brown plush border frames the open front, while generous sleeves can be worn long or turned back to reveal matching statement cuffs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMade in the U.S.A. and cut in a long, fluid silhouette, the coat has presence without feeling rigid.

This coat stands apart for its unusually large, strategically positioned tiger imagery, long sweeping silhouette, and contrasting plush trim. A search of the current resale market revealed other Olympia coats but very few tiger designs and no readily available identical example, making this a notably scarce surviving design from the label—and an exceptional piece for a collector, stylist, or costume archive seeking the exuberance of 1980s fashion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mon Luxe Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44612922638395,"sku":null,"price":325.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0656\/9056\/6715\/files\/IMG_9441-Photoroom.jpg?v=1792360174","url":"https:\/\/monluxevintage.com\/products\/rare-1980s-olympia-tiger-stripe-faux-fur-swing-coat-with-statement-shawl-collar","provider":"Mon Luxe Vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
