Abstract

A flexible display device comprises a flexible substrate including a display area and a non-display area; a display layer in the display area on a first surface of the flexible substrate; a polarizing plate on the display layer; and a cover coat in the non-display area on the first surface of the flexible substrate, the cover coat including a first end portion overlapping with the polarizing plate. At least a portion of the non-display area of the flexible substrate and the cover coat are bendable in a bending direction.
