Coat...finito!!!!



Hi Ladies, I'm so proud to present you my first coat!
Well, it was very time consuming!!!
I must say it was not THAT difficult! The only thing that gave me an hard time was the lining!
The fabric is a 100% wool from Max Mara, and I must say it keeps very warm!
What do you think?
Yesterday it was a great sunny day, as you can see!!


As you can see from the two ladies in the back, everyone here wears black or dark jackets and coats...and vintage is not common...so I was kind of "exotic"!!!!








My kids!





...Kids and Hubby!

  2. Looks fabulous and the wool you chose is gorgeous.

    I've made that coat too, although mine is out of heavy silk devore, unlined and without the pockets, which I wear indoors instead of a cardie over a plain shift dress!

  6. Beautiful coat! The printing of the fabric is great for fighting the cold winter, I love the contrast between your coat and the two ladies in black background. Good job!

  7. Ciao patrizia,
    sono di londra, sposato con un siciliano e viviamo in Romagna non tanto lontano da Cesenatico.
    Amo tutto retro anche fare i balli degli anni 40 e 50.
    ho i vintage modelli ma non ho ancora avuto il coraggio di provare fare una.
    ciao
