Nomadic Reign
DARLIN' DOZER
“Darlin’ Dozer” is a one-of-a-kind couture coat from Nomadic Reign, handcrafted from an antique American carriage blanket dating from 1890 to 1930. Rich in both heritage and heart, this heirloom piece features the image of a loyal Labrador Retriever, proudly wearing a red velvet collar adorned with a vintage dog license tag—a tribute to companionship and enduring devotion.
The dog appears nestled in a pastoral green field scattered with red blooms, evoking the dreamlike stillness of a nighttime countryside scene. The sleeves, made from the original black sections of the blanket, are finished with vibrant green velvet cuffs and accented with an ornate jacquard trim in tones of gold, reddish-orange, and forest green.
The collar, crafted from the original carriage blanket, is detailed with green velvet piping and crowned with a flourish of blue ostrich feathers—adding an unexpected touch of whimsy and movement. At the base, a cocoa-hued fur trim frames the coat with natural warmth and texture.
Inside, the lining is a rich magenta dupioni silk, trimmed in tassels that dance in shades of pink, soft rose, and blush. The bottom interior panel features a dramatic pairing of silk and velvet in a Greek key motif, rendered in earthy bronze and deep brown—an homage to classical elegance.
Two side pockets, lined in silk, offer both practicality and indulgence. As with all creations from Nomadic Reign Couture, “Darlin’ Dozer” is signed by the artist and carries a unique serial number—marking it as a true piece of wearable art.
This coat is a celebration of loyalty, landscape, and legacy—a whimsical, luxurious garment made for the soulful adventurer.
