Made-to-measure jacket pattern

A jacket is a structured piece where the shoulder line and the width across the back govern the whole look. A well-placed shoulder and an accurate armhole make the difference between a jacket that hangs cleanly and one that wrinkles at the back or stands away from the neck. We start from your shoulder length, your bust and your sleeve length to match the construction to your body shape.

The studio covers the blazer with notched lapels, the denim jacket, the bomber jacket and the shirt-collar jacket (workwear style). The pockets, the button fastening and the collar type follow the garment in the photo.

Each base has its own construction: the blazer has its tailored collar, its darts and its welt or patch pockets; the denim jacket its panel seams and flapped patch pockets; the bomber its high collar, its ribbing and its pockets; the shirt-collar jacket follows the construction of a shirt. The studio chooses the one that matches your photo, and your instructions say what is reproduced. The blazer, with its lining, its interfacing, its welt pockets and its two-piece sleeve, is an advanced project; for a first jacket, the shirt-collar jacket or the bomber are more approachable.

You receive a pattern to print at home, seam allowances included, with construction markings and grainline, and sewing instructions detailing how to assemble the collar and sleeves. Depending on the design drafted, the studio offers free adjustments, or none: your project page will tell you.
