VintageModern Design Challenge- Light Jacket
Views
425
Description
This is a jacket I made for the challenge using option #3 – the Free vintage E-pattern found on Indygo Junction. The original cropped jacket has great upper form and I wanted to keep that element. I altered it to be a bit more form fitting, especially at the waist. I added a peplum from the waist down to lengthen the jacket and I made the front to be a V-neckline. Thin yellow biased binding was used to trim the jacket and a simple button and loop fastener was added for closure.Be blessed!

I love this, you can tell you really thought about the original design and included your own changes. Very nice and modern too, and well put together.
