Pattern
MARCELLO slips on like a borrowed men’s coat, but once belted, it gives a silhouette of effortless femininity. It has a collarless shape, cinches at the waist and a framed neckline that gently follows the curve of the neck. The absence of buttons gives it a relaxed yet confident feel, while carefully crafted shoulder and back details add a refined structure. Its clean lines and straight cut are inspired by 1960s Italian tailoring - balancing the strength of a structured shoulder with the softness of a drape you’ll love to wrap yourself in. A must-have with just the right hint of androgyny - without compromising elegance.
Size: 34 to 52, for a height of 1m 65 in size 36.
Sewing level: ADVANCED. Key techniques include sewing a welt pocket, insetting panels, flat-assembling the lining, and hand-finishing the collar (glazing).
Seam allowances are included and set at 1 cm.
