Description

Fall is coming soon, so I acomplished this cozy and femenine leather jacket this weekend.
I used this fake leather, wich btw I really love the color and it’s not so shiny as it looks in the pictures.
It was easy to sew except the front upper part because of the lak finishing it has, so the stitches were sew by hand.
I used the same pattern of PATRONES of my blue blazer, again I made some changes at the collar made them wider just the same as the model I saw at Victorias Secret’s site.
The sleeves werent so wide as the original because of the material, I though it wont work out.

Material Notes

1.15 mts fake leather, 5 buttons

      You are welcome! Sorry the material was difficult to work with, but I am sure even you admit that the end result was worth it! :-)

    I love the fact you used one pattern to produce two very different jackets – that’s very inspirational. and this one in particular is just fabulous.
