If you follow this link, you can download this pattern for John Galliano’s Pirate Jacket from his 2001 collection. The site also has a gallery of examples that sewers have made (I really like this green one.) The SHOWstudio site is also some great background on the jacket and its place in his collection. Natually I had to download a copy; I’ll never wear this (DD might) but this design is worth saving because the pattern PDF appears to be the actual oaktag cutting templates, and they are covered with hand written construction notes.
Be warned however; the
re are 60 pattern pieces. And only one size.
How fun! It would be interesting to make, but I’m not sure where I’d wear it. I love John Galliano.
I love the last B&W version, but I admit my admiration will be the only effort I put forth….making it is too much effort for me LOL
There are a few other design downloads at the SHOWstudio site, including an Alexander McQueen jacket from his Fall 2003 RTW. Just so ya know!
Fun jacket but definately not my style. Great imaginative piece.
I think that the left side pattern sewn up for both sides would do the job nicely.
…and in the ‘contributors’ listing, are some more designer patterns–Yohji Yamamoto has a great, and maybe ‘sewable’ pattern for a jacket.
This is definately my style and I would like to attempt it!
I’d love to attempt it. I see they give more information than Marfy does!
