Embroidered Coat - The picture to the right is an embroidered coat worn by Clare to a family wedding in January 2008. It was made by Alison Miles Couture of Bath and hand embroidered by Clare. The coat was inspired by a Parisien Dress coat and with large red flowers and leaves, some of the smaller flowers were appliqued velvet and lace motifs. The coat was finished with red gem stones, beads and a fabulous furr collar. More pictures can be seen in the gallery.
