Jonah - Tailored Men's Suit Jacket

Description

This semester has been pretty tough lately with some pretty tight deadlines so I haven't had much time to make many personal projects. 
This is a 6 panel men's suit jacket I made for my studio III class in which we used the fusible method after doing a half scale traditional method jacket. I still need to add the contrast (tan) on the upper collar and fix the lining at the center back vent and sleeve, but i'm pretty pleased with how it came out. I hope to make a pocket square for it using the fabric I used for the pocketing that has a blue sailboat on white print. I did the math and there are about 75 pieces of fabric, interfacings, and stabilizers (and a TON of patterns) that went into this project which might be the most pieces i've worked with so far! Those single welt pockets were killer though since I haven't done them a lot yet. I also learned how to make custom shoulder pads which was pretty cool. I hope to make myself a sharp well fitted suit soon using my new knowledge!

Materials:


-100% Navy Pinstriped Wool Suiting
-100% Tan Wool (contrast)
