During colder months I have often been irritated, when I wanted to put on the thick wool sweater and throw over a coat. It turned out to be a big hassle when all this fabric just wouldn't fit into any coat's sleeve! The belt had to be made two holes larger and I felt trapped. The designers of Fall Season 2012/2013 might have had the same poblem, because they bestowed us with the most beautiful oversized coats: Just look at Jil Sander, Celine or Acne. It almost feels like in a movie from the 50s or 60s when Liz Taylor would throw over a big coat over her lovely little shift dress. No one would have ever asked her whether that coat was "one size too large?". I've prepared three oversized coat patterns to fit any women between size 34-42 (if you have questions for larger sizes, just drop us an email). The loden cloth we used was kindly provided by stoffe.de L and you should check out their different colours, thickness and weights. The best part: the coats are simply made without any lining, because they are warm enough! Secondly, we incorporated the other big trend of the season – embroidery and embellishment. And we will continue to show you techniques and DIYs on our blog L and Pinterest Boards L. 6 coats, 6 materials, 3 patterns, 2 models and 1000 possibilities to make your own!
