Advanced Patterning

Class taken in the spring of 2023
Instructor: Melissa Neville

Final Project

This was my final project for advanced patterning. I made an 1890's women's jacket to fit me. 

Inspiration Photos

These are the inspiration photos that I chose for my jacket. I used the back of the one on the right and the collar of the one on the left.

First Draft

The was my first attempt at the jacket. I didn't like how the front and collar laid. the sleeves were to small at the shoulder and needed to be pleated. The skirt also needed to be fuller.

Second Draft

This was my second attempt at the jacket. It was much better but the collar sleeves and skirt still needed a bit more adjustment.
