Rare Vintage 1976 Summer Olympics Canada Wrap Coat Custom Fit to Athlete
(Missing Belt)
A piece of Canadian Olympic History. This Wrap Coat is from the Montreal Summer Olympics in 1976 and was worn by Volleyball Athlete Gregory Russell. There were four Montreal based fashion designers who were responsible for uniforms worn during the games - John Warden, Marielle Fleury, Michel Robichaud and Leo Chevalier. I believe this jacket may have been used for the closing ceremonies but I am not definite.
