The Blair Coat by Homer and Howells is a classic style overcoat and blazer in a fashionable boxy silhouette with an on-trend dropped shoulder. The Blair coat features a double breast fastening, a slim notched collar and optional deep side pockets.
This coat comes in 2 views: View A is a duster length coat and View B is a blazer length coat.
We recommend this pattern for intermediate sewists or improver sewists looking to take on a challenge.
Fabric:
We recommend using woven fabric only for the Blair coat. Make the Blair up in a structured linen for a summer-y overcoat, or use lightweight wool or cotton twill for a more structured look. The Blair coat would also look amazing in a lightweight jacquard as a shirt dress, perfect for Spring!
