22-year old college student Masha Markova was lucky enough to attend a celebrity birthday party at a club called 1Oak. Masha took off her $11K mink coat and put it on the seat next to her, then sat down.A pile of coats ended up being the only thing between her and Lindsay Lohan.

Lohan, celeb B-days, overpriced furs, this girl has it made!

Then, after the party was over, she noticed her coat was missing. Masha reported the missing coat to the 1Oak management, who said they would keep an eye out for it.

Then, Masha was flipping through OK! Magazine when she spotted the left-hand picture above.

Yup. Lindsay took her coat.

Details on this absurdity after the cut.

From the NY Post:

Two weeks later, Markova flipped through the Feb. 11 edition of OK! Magazine and couldn’t believe her eyes - Lohan was photographed the night of Jan. 26 wearing the very same fur coat.

“I was actually talking on the phone to my grandmother about something else, and then I flipped through the magazine, saw the picture said, ‘I need to call you back,’ ” Markova told The Post yesterday.

“It was my coat. It was no doubt!”

The pretty co-ed said that in the ensuing days, she surfed the Internet and found several paparazzi photos of Lohan wearing the distinctive blond coat hours after the birthday party they had both attended.

Also, celebrity blogs posted pictures of the actress party-hopping that night - wearing a black coat before she arrived at 1Oak, Markova said.

Club owners vowed to get to the bottom of it, but several days passed with no call back, Markova said.

That’s when her immigration lawyer, Merrill Cohen, called Lohan’s high-powered Hollywood attorney, Blair Berk, threatening litigation.

Hours later, Markova said she heard from 1Oak.

“They were very discreet, never mentioned a name or even the word ‘coat,’ ” Markova said. “They just said, ‘We’re going to bring you something.’ ”

The coat arrived at Markova’s Morningside Heights apartment two days later.
Reeking of cigarettes and booze with a slight tear in the lining, the fur coat was no worse for wear after a dry cleaning and quick patch-up.

Still, she wants answers - and Lohan to own up to swiping her coat.

“I don’t see how it could have been an accident,” Markova said.

Markova and her lawyer stopped short of accusing Lohan of wrongdoing. But they still want her to pay at least $10,000 for the unauthorized, three-week rental.

Lohan’s spokeswoman did not return calls.

A 1Oak rep confirmed that the club delivered Markova’s fur coat back to her in February.

“I am not the coat keeper. I’m not sure where the coat was,” said club spokeswoman Lisette Sand-Freedman.
