Kimono Jacket

A simple design with a pattern sourced from Etsy and made out of black stretch denim.

Using denim from Dalston Mills, this kimono jacket was easy to make. The lapels were adapted to include the opposite colour panels.

This garment was made from a 2 meter length of denim. Again, this could really have used 2 1/2 meters. The lapels should have been one piece. But, the pattern left only scraps. I had to put three pieces together. I thought I’d flip one small piece to make the different colour panel. You see this in the finished picture.

The pattern included instructions that were comprehensive. However, they were not quite as detailed as the ones always supplied by Wardrobe By Me (WBM).
