International demand for Uzbek ikats grew throughout the late 1800s and early 1900s, in keeping with a sweeping European fascination in what was then called “the Orient.” This coat was tailored to suit Western tastes and was donated to the museum by Lily Place, a Minneapolis native who lived in Paris, London, and Cairo.
