The redingote (or redingotte, redingot) is a type of coat that has had several forms over time. The name is derived from a French alteration of the English "riding coat", an example of reborrowing.
The first form of the redingote was in the 18th century, when it was used for travel on horseback. This coat was a bulky, utilitarian garment. It would begin to evolve into a fashionable accessory in the last two decades of the 18th century, when women began wearing a perfectly tailored style of the redingote, which was inspired by men's fashion of the time. Italian fashion also picked it up (the redingotte), adapting it for more formal occasions.

The front is great, the back is a train wreck
Before writing this review, I contacted the seller but haven't heard back. The front is exactly as advertised. It is pretty. The back doesn't look at all like the picture provided. It's as if the back doesn't even exist. It doesn't cover my backside or my legs and it is impossible to alpha your body parts to make it work. Even if you assume, though who would buy it if that was the case, that as a riding habit it should be used only for sitting it still doesn't look right.
