Green plaid coat (.1), green velour mock turtleneck (.2), and green velour leggings with attached shoes (.3) by Anne Klein. The jacket (.1) is made from a woven plaid material made of primarily kelly green mohair with blue, pink, red, purple, and yellow mohair, and multi-colored metallic thread stripes. It is collarless and has straight cut full-length sleeves with no cuffs, and a straight bottom hem that falls just below the hip. The jacket closes at the center front with three (3) metal snaps. On the proper right side there are three (3) decorative buttons sewn to correspond with the snap closures. The buttons are a gold-toned metal with four (4) irregularly shaped elements in red, blue, gold, and green set into the metal to form a roughly square shape. There is a copyright symbol engraved onto the back of each button, but no manufacturer name. The jacket is fully lined in green synthetic fabric.
