[coords] Metamorphose Diavolo white coat

I bought the Metamorphose Diavolo long coat in off-white (one of the few full price online store purchases I've made) because it was so dramatic and just my style! It's not a typical lolita item, being a men's cut (sort of anyway) military style coat. But I was determined to make it work, so here are a few example outfits I put together.


This is lolita style using the coat, a large white fur collar from Forever 21, offbrand blouse and gloves, Meta socks and knock off boots. The hat is a cruise captain Halloween prop my mom got one year that I decorated with one of the badges that came with the coat lmao. I am wearing a Meta skirt underneat, so there is a slight a-line shape to the silhouette. The jacket is unlined and made of a light woven material, so it's not particularly warm despite its appearance, so I am not sure what is the intended season, but with a collar and gloves and tights and boots, it could work for cool fall weather or mild winter.


 These are cosplay outfits to be honest, but I was just seeing how to go for a more masculine (HAHAHA) look with my Free! wigs that need using up. They were inspired by their white navy captain uniforms, but whereas the artwork had a summer theme with short sleeves, I coordinated this coat for a more wintry theme.  I used a black pashmina and a black fur collar that came with a coat, plus a black Meta blouse for Rei. I didn't add much to Momo, although now you can gold cording I attached to the epaulettes better. The bottoms are white jeans and black knee high motorcyle boots.

So anyway... I love this coat, but it doesn't look complete without the hat (which I never found the white hat sold online, only the black and that was sold out ages ago). I feel like I give off a cruise captain look even wearing it lolita style. But it's my happiest purchase!
