FITTING
See the finished garment measurement charts below for actual measurements. It is VERY IMPORTANT to check jacket length, sleeve length, and back neck-to-waist lengths BEFORE cutting out. Also make sure that the sleeves are long for your arm position when showing. The back should fit smoothly and not pull across the shoulders.

FABRICS AND NOTIONS
This pattern can be made from a wide variety of medium weight woven fabrics such as gabardines, twills, and linen-looks. Any typical lining fabric such as polyester, rayon, or nylon, is suitable. Fusible interfacing is used for the collar and zipper reinforcement- the pattern instructions have more information about using additional interfacing for a more structured look.
