I have a double-button black pea coat with a similarly shaped collar, and I never wear it bare-necked.

Crappy pics, but here's mine. The belt in the back is a little too low, but apart from that it's nice.

That is beautiful, it really suits you too.

And here are my coats... I can't decide whether it's cute my wool coat now has a partner or feel disturbed that my coat's new partner seems to be massively into black leather...

And I would show you a photo of me wearing it but... well... my self photography skills leave a lot to be desired...

And here's a photo of my daughter with the coat and my 221 B ring, I don't know how to embed it so please follow the link and click on various places on the photo :

Lovely Photo biscuitbear I wish there was someone else in my household that I could share my enthusiasm with. Although some might argue that one enthusiast per household is quite enough for their tastes

Absolutely with you it agree. It seems to me it is very good idea. Completely with you I will agree.

I don't think my family can stand me alone....much less one of my siblings. It's always fun being the geek.

Love the pictures posted here! The coat looks amazing!
Hopefully making Sherlock's coat sometime, as soon as I can find reference pictures

I do!

I entered a small raffle in 2012 for a handmade one made from german military fabric. The owner had made it and realised it would not fit them properly or were not happy with it? I couldn't believe I had won the raffle! But I had and it arrived shortly before I went to the hospital for surgery.

It's perfectly lovely, especially in winter and when I run it billows and flies beautifully in the wind. It had to be altered to fit my shorter frame and narrower shoulders and I added new buttons as the ones on the coat were silver and I found ones resembelling the one in the show. The lapels don't sit how I wish they would and the collar only stands up if I'm wearing a scarf but its wonderful!

I think I only have pictures of my brother wearing it though, before it was altered. *not one for taking photos of self*

As soon as I get some money I am so getting one!

I have always wanted a trench coat, and well my faux fur coat is getting a bit hairy. And this would look way better with my dark blue scarf!

Wow, you even have the PSoS and the right hair-- are you an actor or something? Very impressive likeness.

I just saw one, in Hot Topic. It was hanging very high, on the wall, but it looked cool. Even had the red thread!

ArwendeLuhtiene · October 26, 2014 12:22 pm

Gorgeous coats, and great pics, Sherlock Holmes, biscuitbear and SH182 (and wow, you really look like Sherlock!) !

I have the CosplaySky replica, and I couldn't be happier about it, it's really accurate and very comfy as an actual Winter coat (and of course, being a crazy Sherlockian, it IS my main Winter coat xD)
