1970s BLEACHED RACCOON & LEATHER PANEL COAT
Size S | Mid-Calf Length | Bay City, Michigan Origin
Shows signs of wear, read full description
DESIGN
A striking 1970s statement piece in bleached raccoon fur with soft white leather paneling, tailored in a distinctly ’70s silhouette reminiscent of the styles worn by It-girls of the era such as Sharon Tate and Jane Birkin.
Falling gracefully to mid-calf, it cinches at the waist with its matching leather belt, creating a sculpted, hourglass line. The pale ivory tone catches the light beautifully, evoking the snowy palette and high-gloss texture that defined late-70s après-ski luxury.
CONDITION
Good vintage condition for its age. Recently cleaned and refreshed by a professional furrier. The coat shows gentle, well-earned wear consistent with its age, subtle smudging and imperfections on the lining, and wear on the leather corners.
Fur pelt itself is in great condition.
Fully wearable and structurally sound. A distinctly 1970s design, rich in character and unlike anything produced today.
SIZE & FIT
Best fits a modern Small.
Length: approx. 40" (mid-calf)
Shoulder to Shoulder: 17.5"
Sleeve length: 21"
Belted waist adjustable
Intended to fit close at the shoulder and flare gently toward the hem.
ARCHIVAL NOTES
Crafted in Bay City, Michigan, this coat originates from the closet of Mary Beth Hughes, who wore the coat frequently and well. Her monogram remains stitched inside the lining, a quiet trace of its original owner.
Bleached raccoon was among the most coveted furs of the late 1970s, prized for its dense texture and soft champagne cast once treated to that near-white finish. Pieces of this quality would have retailed for $1,200–$1,600 USD at the time (equivalent to over $8,000 today).
PACKAGING NOTES
Ships as part of The Fur Salon collection, accompanied by a custom Fur Salon matchbook and archival care door hanger, designed to echo the quiet glamour of vintage hotel lobbies and winter soirées.

I had such a wonderful experience shopping with Ari! I recently purchased a beautiful vintage mink coat with a matching hat, and I couldn’t be happier. The set arrived in excellent condition, and shipping was quick. Ari was an absolute pleasure to deal with. She even took the time to reach out to me personally to check on the fit and quality, which I thought was such a thoughtful and lovely touch.
It’s clear that Ari truly cares about her customers and the pieces she sells. The entire experience was exceptional from start to finish, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. I would not hesitate to shop with Ari again and look forward to doing so! ❤️
Just the best one!! She found the perfect shoes for me 🤍
