The 230 Model "T" Duster Coat sewing pattern from Folkwear comes from a time when women were faced with the dilemma of keeping their dresses clean in the new open "horseless carriage". The sensible solution was a loose-fitting, unlined coat called, fittingly, a "duster". Folkwear's original duster features a simple, subtly fitted silhouette, that will fit right in to any contemporary wardrobe. Flared princess seams, double-breasted front, and classic notched collar and lapels lend a traditionally tailored fit and look. Curved two-piece sleeves with shaped cuffs add a vintage touch. Generous patch pockets have shaped flaps. Pattern Details: Folkwear Pattern #230 Model "T" Duster Coat (Not finished garment) Misses sizes 8 - 16 (Bust Measurements 31 1/2" - 38") All Sizes in one Envelope Includes pattern for coat in two lengths View A is a contemporary street length, low-calf length on a 5' 6" person. View B falls to the ankle and preserves the two deep back seam pleats of the original. Your duster can run the gamut from sportswear to evening wear, depending on your choice of fabric, be it rugged denim, fine linen, or gabardine. Try it in water repellent fabric for a terrific raincoat.
