When a blazer is irresistible... This is Manhattan! This jacket is definitely the centerpiece of the Empire State Fauve collection: a slim fit with yokes, with shaped shoulders, a bold peak collar, a length in tune with the times, perfect for wearing your blazer with a belt, and the possibility of sewing a welt pocket with a flap, or a patch pocket with a flap. And the finishing is impeccable to the end, because your jacket is fully lined, with a concealed pocket inside the garment, terribly chic, don't you think?!

Sewing level: advanced, the technical aspects are the assembly of the collar, the slashed pockets, the installation of the shoulder pads/ cigarette sleeve cap and the assembly of the lining on the jacket.

Size: The pattern goes from sizes 8 (34) to 24 (52).

The pattern can be bought with the supplies of the shoulder pads and sleeve heads.

SEWING MARGINS ARE INCLUDED (1 CM).

Choice of fabric: light wool, fine tweed, Prince of Wales wools, velvet, soft fabrics between 150 and 300 g/m2. The jacket has a slim fit, I recommend choosing a specific fabric for the lining, such as ours which is 100% cupro smooth and more breathable than a polyester lining.
