Toile 3

The third toile of the half size tailored jacket we made was very successful and created a desirable silhouette. Below is a design page featuring the final outcome.

Review of design

• The joining of the circles on the back created a much more interesting shape.
• Length too long at the back.

Alterations

As we are fairly happy with the outcome we will be making the next toile full size to see how it fits on the body. There are a couple of alterations which we will make:

• Move the bust dart higher up on the sleeve to create a nicer shape.
• Shorten the jacket when on the stand.
• Add a cuff to the 2 piece sleeve.
