Paletot - blue medium weight brushed cotton high quality - up to a 31" bust/size small - two pockets - Civil War/Victorian reenactment - jacket/coat trek
Paletot
This is made from a medium weight, royal blue, brushed cotton fabric. It has a wonderfully soft feel to it and drapes nicely.
A paletot is a jacket like garment that flairs as it falls to the hem so as to accommodate a hoop skirt. This one is extra long and has two piece pagoda style sleeves. The shoulder seems drop off the shoulders just as the dresses did. This is unlined, as the originals were. The seams are pressed open and then top stitched; again, as was typical in the day. White cotton cording accents the paletot. It closes with four shell buttons. There are two pockets
Bust - actual measurement - 33" but please allow a few inches of ease.
From the center of the back to the sleeve cuff - 26"
Cuff - 21"
Length in center front - 36"
Length in back - 50"
I used a pattern purchased from KayFig Patterns. They can be found here on Etsy at: https://www.etsy.com/shop/PatternsOnlyPeriod I HIGHLY recommend the patterns! The quality, attention to detail, research and overall presentation is amazing.
This paletot is made and ready high quality for immediate shipment. It will be shipped via USPS Priority Mail. If you are interested in a paletot in a different size or fabric please message me. I'd be pleased to work with you.
