Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made this jacket for a friend of mine who was shooting a spec commercial. It’s not perfect but I had fun with it and learned a lot. I decided to use a fun print on the inside to make it pop more on film. The collar/lapel also can fold down like a regular suit jacket but I liked it better up. Too bad I don’t look as good in it as the model did ;)
Material Notes
Black wool/cashmere blend with silk charmeuse lining.

Stunning! I love the lining too. And, I don’t see any flaws from here ;-)
