Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

The lovely Kenna of Kenna Sews on IG recently asked for pattern testers for a plus sized 1910 Edwardian Dressing Jacket or Dressing Sack. I volunteered to test the pattern and here are the results of this plus size sewing project! Thank you for joining me here on costube for my sewing and historical costuming adventures!

    this is one of my fav makes of yours. Despite no pattern alterations I find the fit impressively good specially from the profile. Great fabric choice.

    Do I remember that you are tall? I think the back definitely needs to be longer but with the suggestions that you've made about how you would alter it, I think it would look even better!

    It seems a bit short-waisted. Is that part of the design (intentional), or perhaps a scaling-up problem (unintentional)?

    It's supposed to be high waisted, but it's too high for me in the back. It hasn't been scaled up, taken directly from an extant garment by Kenna. I didn't make any alterations, but Kenna is including instructions for making changes based on your waist length in the final pattern.

    Nice! I was thinking this would be a great thing for summer work-wear for me-not really a blazer, but a somewhat structured top that would be perfect, except that I would have to make that belt adjustment! I’ll keep my eyes peeled for the release of this pattern!

    It looks too small to me I would lengthen the front and back. Otherwise, I like it and might buy it.

    I didn't make any adjustments to the pattern since it was a test and I wanted to see how it would fit without changes. I was above the recommended measurements, but within the max pattern measurements. The pattern is one size, taken from an extant garment. If your measurements are less than mine, you would have plenty of ease and the back pleat and belt placement can be adjusted up or down based on your waist length.

    I tested it too and I think it would make a really nice longer house jacket as well. Unlike Rebecca, I live in the North where a little jacket to toss on around the house is a great garment! (I made mine out of flannel)
