Step 1
Draw the basic with darts, then adjust the length and flare 5 to 8cm from sides.
Draw the slash line for princess cut ending at armhole and manipulate all darts in the lines.
Double breasted A-line coat
Let's draft the pattern for this double breasted coat.
It has a simple silhouette yet very flattering and elegant.
To draft the pattern, start from a basic block with minimum 12cm ease at bust - adjust the ease according to the fit you prefer and to the materials you are using.
You can learn our method for drafting perfectly made to measure basic blocks (contoured ones, and the ones with wearing ease) and for fitting them in our basic blocks course/module 1.
Step 2
Cut through slash lines discarding volume of waist darts in them and closing shoulder dart on front piece.
Flare 5 to 8cm on the side of each piece.
Step 3
Redraw all pieces with the new volume, then mark grainline on all of them perpendicular to hemline/waistline.
