Chloe Coat By Sew Over It

£16.00

The Chloe Coat is a beautifully classic coat with simple details and an exquisite finish. With lined patch pockets, a pretty rounded neck and optional detachable scarf, it’s easy to wear, versatile and looks great with any outfit.

The Chloe Coat fastens either with an open-ended zip, or press studs for a 60’s vibe. It’s tailored at the shoulders and fully lined for a beautiful finish on the inside and a perfectly structured coat on the outside. Designed to be semi-loose fitting yet flattering, the Chloe Coat is fitted to your shoulders, and shaped at the front with a long cut-away dart.

The Chloe Coat is a true year-round staple. Depending on your fabric choices you can wear this pattern all the way through from spring to winter. Choose from a myriad of medium weight wovens for your Chloe Coat; from wool to viscose linen, stable crepes and more, it’s easy to make this pattern your own. Go plain or choose a big print, Chloe is a blank canvas for you to play with as you like.

Sewing Level
The Chloe Coat sewing pattern is designed for intermediate dressmakers and above. There are a couple of tailoring techniques involved, and you’ll be required to set in a sleeve and sew in a lining. Therefore we recommend you have completed a few other dressmaking projects to a good standard before tackling Chloe.

Sizing & Fabric Requirements

For the Chloe Coat we recommend a medium to heavyweight wool fabric, such as tweed, boucle, boiled wool or melton. For a lighter coat, you could also try a jacquard, linen or viscose linen blend. If you are new to sewing coats we recommend avoiding fabrics with a very loose weave (such as boucle) as these fray easily and can make your sewing more tricky.

Chloe is fully-lined, so you will also need lining fabric. We recommend using something with a silky finish so you can get the jacket on and off easily, such as satin, acetate, or even silk charmeuse for all-out luxury. Crepes and lustrous viscose will also work nicely.

You will also need:

  • 2x pieces of ice wool wadding (measuring 10cm x 23cm)
  • 22″ open-ended zip for the zipped coat
  • OR 5 or 6 2.1cm press studs if you’d prefer to close your coat with poppers

Fabric Requirements
The Chloe Coat sewing pattern is available in sizes 8-20. See the size chart for details on measurements and fabric requirements. 

Like all our patterns, the sizes are nested to make it easier to grade between the sizes, depending on your measurements.
