Vogue V9247 Great long open-front jacket

9/9/2019

 

Vogue V9247 is a "Great long open-front jacket"

Picture
We tested the sewingpattern Vogue V9247.
The sewingpattern is easy and a plain simple open-front shaped jacket. The pattern is ideal for variations and we especially love the long-jacket-variation.

Description:
Vogue V9247, Loose-fitting unlined jacket and vest have length, sleeve, and pocket variations. A: Self-fringe and braid. B: Braid. C: Lace trim. D: Self-fringe and lace trim. F: Self-fringe.

Sewing level: 
not mentioned

Fabrics: Lightweight Synthetic Leather and Suede, Ponte Knit and Lightweight Demin

Notions: Bias, trims, lace trims and bindings.

We are enthusiast about these PLUS points:  
  • Beautiful fitting easy sleeves.
  • Love Model B (the short one) and D (the long one) most. 
  • Nice shape, makes you look slimmer and taller.
  • Easy pattern.

We are a little disappointed about:
  • Unlined; it does not wear comfortable in stiff fabrics.
  • The darts in the back gives comfort but also looks a bit cheap on the leather and suede fabrics.
  • In Bouclé it could work though...

We created the Model D. long jacket but without the long fringes, as this looks a bit too much of a sort of boho-style. The long jacket is a really easy pattern and great for experimenting with fringes, trims and adding linings.

Creative ideas: trims en fringes.

Extra options:
We tried this pattern with a dark green, but very loose, woolen Bouclé fabric.  We also added a Silk graphic lining and quilted it as in The couture cardigan jacket.

A long jacket (or coat?) to wear all day. To travel. For work.  For the colds evenings during Summer. For indoors: an extra layer.
etc. etc.

This jacket might look a bit cheap on the pattern: but it feels like heaven when you create the pattern and use the quilting style on good (not too cheap!) fabrics like a real great Bouclé and a real Silk lining.
