1936 Cape-Jacket in 96 cm (37.8") bust

Also available as a PDF pattern

A short jacket with a hip-length over-cape, which is attached at the shoulder seam and the top of the armholes. The original publication suggested a variation in styling; make the cape in fur and the jacket underneath in a lighter wool. The jacket is quite fitted and features front buttons, a V-shaped hemline and it is drawn-into the waist with a purchased belt. Underneath the cape, the jacket's armholes can be finished with facings or a full lining.
