Let's draft the pattern for this amazing jacket with interesting details. The raglan sleeves are manipulated with lots of volume at bottom and a fitted cuff. It also has a waistband and a mandarin collar, and all details are highlighted by the use of a contrasting fabric.
The jacket has slanted welted pockets and full lining. You could sew it in any medium to heavy fabric, from wool to polyester, to silk or blends.
To draft the pattern, start from a basic block without darts and add the ones at waist to create the yoke/shaped waistband.
Widen neckline by 2,5cm on center front and shoulders and by 1,5cm on center back.
Draw a line 4 to 6cm below the waist and trace the whole upper part on a separate paper.
Draw a line 20cm below the waist and trace the piece from waist to this line.
Your traced pieces should look like these.
On bottom pieces, tape darts closed.
On top pieces, draw the raglan slash line:
