Designer Lookalike Coat | 360-Degree View
Replicate a designer coat with an easy pattern change.
This garment was inspired by a Chanel coat from the Spring 2017 couture collection. We adapted Vogue 9157 to incorporate a pair of diagonal pleats at the center-front waist, and fabricated the coat in wool tweed from MoodFabrics.com. From the waist up, the coat is double-breasted; from the waist down, the edges meet at center front with no overlap. Learn how to make this pattern change in “The Coat Edit,” Threads #210, Dec. 2018/Jan. 2019.

Very nice coat.
I'd like to see how it looks unbuttoned.
I'm sorry we don't have a view with the top buttons open. The collar forms a small lapel--similar to the original Chanel coat.
