WhmZcoat designs coats, capes, tailcoats, and cloaks, which cross fantasy into the everyday world, making the mundane magical. Styles are inspired by Harry Potter, Star Trek, Star Wars, Cosplay, Anime, Steampunk, Comic Book Characters or whatever sparks the imagination.

WhmZcoat is about the creation of that whimsical coat that can cross Steampunk and Victorian into the everyday world, making the mundane magical.

The whimsy starts with you. It all depends upon the fabric and theme you choose. All coats are one of a kind, and made and sewn by the owner. In order to be more versatile, designs are sleeveless so that one can wear them in nightclubs, with other clothing, or in warmer climates. Size is not a problem because WhmZcoat does custom work and can take measurements and make that coat you have always seen yourself wearing! Custom work is available to fit all sizes.

Designs are meant to “give” as far as the ribbons in the back so there are always a few inches to spare should one’s size change a bit. Attention to small detail is essential, as is the lining of a WhmZcoat, because the inside of a coat should be as nice as the outside. Size is not a problem because WhmZcoat does custom work and can take measurements and make that coat you have always seen yourself wearing! Empower imagination.
