I’ll start at the end and work backwards. Here’s my 4th, best, and hopefully final Chanel jacket all made in the past 18 months. It was constructed using what appears to be the only officially licensed Chanel jacket pattern to ever be released–a 1962 pattern by the Spadea company. (More on the pattern in the next post).
The whole thing took me at least 100 hours.
Will you show us the other 3 jackets? I thought I was nuts, but you win, 4 Chanels in 18 months is a huge achievement!
Hi Carmen, yes, I will definitely be blogging about all four jackets and the 4 different methods I used to make them. Then on to Claire McCardell–enough Chanel already!
