Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This is the first piece I’ve made. It started out like the Hikaru jacket in the front, but I created a completely different back with folds and turned a belt buckle into a sort of broach. It’s also a light jacket because the material needed to be suitably malleable for the folds.

Your jacket is very nice! I love your fabric choice and your back modification is so novel. Very fun! I hope you get lots of wear out of it.
