Durmstrang greatcoat, hell yeah.

I would like a greatcoat like the one worn by the Durmstrang boys from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Any ideas?

My girlfriend turned on the TV last night and Goblet of Fire was on. I happened to glance at the TV during the "introduction" scene near the beginning and saw this coat (middle guy). I like.

I did some searching and couldn't find anything similar (calf length, full fur or "fur" trim, toggles). I even considered contacting the costume designer, but she doesn't seem to have a website or anything. Can anyone point me to the same or a similar coat for sale anywhere? Thanks, guys.

Best answer: It's an Afghan coat. I guess it's a case of searching for one of a similar size and with similar toggles.

Best answer: Try looking at sites that sell sheepskin coats. The fur lining also looks a bit like buffalo to me; you might try searching on buffalo as well.

This might be an excellent task for Etsy Alchemy. There really are some outstanding craftspeople on the site and you can put in a photo and your ideal cost and have someone make it for you.
