A train is formed from two long pieces of fabric, which extend back from each shoulder, and join together at their ends where they are decorated with the same plaited green and black stripes and three buttons. The coat's interior is lined with multiple calico(?) fabrics. There are small strips of embroidery sewn down the interior edges of the coat's opening.
