In regal yellow gold and white, the Desire of My Heart Coat is crafted from prestigious Kente cloth woven by hand in Ghana. The coat has been thoughtfully designed with a straight silhouette to honor the nature of this beautiful fabric, which is made from narrow strips of cloth stitched together. The diamond-and-square pattern falls vertically through the body of the coat to create a sleek silhouette, while the horizontal yoke and shawl collar hint at Victorian tailoring, emphasizing the shoulders to lend authority to anyone who wears this contemporary, gender-fluid style.
