Garment Details: The Darcy Coat is an elegant and comfortable coat that is designed to work with your body, not against it. Fit wise this coat is very over-sized and roomy with volume put into the pattern through a dropped shoulder, deep armholes, wide sleeves and a wide main body. There are a few different design options with this piece so you can pick and choose which you like from the instructions to create a garment that’s to your liking.
The PDF Pattern comes with in depth written instructions, an A4 & US Letter tiles (100 pages for printing) and an A0 version (5 pages for printing). The pattern also comes with sizes on different layers.
Sizing: This is a multi-size pattern, including sizes 4-28. Sizes run true to UK sizing - full sizing details, including finished garment measurements can be found here.
Fit notes: This is a neat fit with full length sleeves and straight body shape. If you're sewing this piece in wool you might consider a size up to allow for bulky winter layering (optional suggestion, please check the sizing chart before cutting).
